Vettaiyan, the latest action-packed thriller from director TJ Gnanavel, continues to dominate global box office charts on Day 6. The film, led by the legendary Rajinikanth, has captivated audiences with its gripping narrative, intense action sequences, and the added star power of Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan. With just six days since its release, Vettaiyan has already raked in a substantial amount, outshining many of its competitors and racing towards the ₹300 crore milestone.
A Film that Strikes a Chord with Audiences
From the moment Vettaiyan hit theaters, it has been embraced by viewers. The movie tells the story of Athiyan, a tough and determined police officer played by Rajinikanth, who wages a war against corruption. Known by the nickname “Vettaiyan,” his character brings a heroic yet relatable presence to the screen. Amitabh Bachchan, portraying Justice Dr. Satyadev Brahmadutt Pandey from the National Human Rights Commission, adds another layer to the story. Their characters may disagree ideologically, but the mutual respect between them provides an emotional depth that has resonated with audiences.
This combination of electrifying action, thought-provoking drama, and the dynamic pairing of two legendary actors has fueled the film’s rapid rise to success.
Impressive Box Office Performance: Day 6 Collection
Despite being in theaters for less than a week, Vettaiyan has already made a significant mark on the global box office. The movie was released just one day ahead of Jigra and Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, giving it an early edge, and it has maintained its momentum since. On Day 6, Vettaiyan added ₹24.16 crore to its already impressive total, bringing its global earnings to a whopping ₹264 crore.
Here’s a breakdown of Vettaiyan’s box office collections so far:

| Day 3 | 47.87 |
| Day 4 | 41.32 |
| Day 5 | 27.80 |
| Day 6 | 24.16 |
Industry insiders predict that the film will soon cross the ₹275 crore mark, continuing its strong performance in both domestic and international markets.
Success in North America
The success of Vettaiyan isn’t limited to India. In North America, the film has garnered significant attention, pulling in ₹1.13 crore on its fifth day. This is notably higher than other recent South Indian releases in the region. For comparison, Leo, starring Thalapathy Vijay, earned ₹76 lakh in the same market.
Not only has Vettaiyan performed well in North America, but it has also outpaced the lifetime earnings of other major films, such as Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2 and Junior NTR’s Devara. With its steady climb, Vettaiyan continues to set new benchmarks for South Indian cinema on a global scale.
On Track to Hit ₹300 Crore

The film’s consistent performance, combined with positive word-of-mouth and the allure of Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, ensures that Vettaiyan will remain a strong contender at the box office for weeks to come.
Final Thoughts
