Box Office: Dhanush's 'Raayan' Scored Excellent First Weekend Worldwide
Chennai, July 29 - Tamil star Dhanush scored a much deserving success with his latest action thriller Raayan after the excellent 3-day opening weekend at the worldwide box office. The A-rated blockbuster scored close to 70 crores gross collection, already one of the highest-grossing Tamil movies of the year.



Directed and headlined by Dhanush, Raayan witnessed a continued jump over the weekend at the domestic box office, which is not a regular case for South Indian films. With approximately 49 crores gross collection, the movie scored the second biggest opening weekend for a Tamil title of 2024, behind only Indian 2.





In Tamil Nadu, Raayan minted approximately 34 crores gross, followed by approximately 5.50+ crores in Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh and Telengana). The rest of the domestic market contributed approximately 10 crores gross collection.





At the overseas box office, the movie has had a superb weekend with approximately 22 crores gross. This led to approximately 71+ crores worldwide cume, making it the 6th highest-grossing Tamil movie of 2024. The worldwide opening weekend of Raayan has almost wiped out Dhanush's last film, Captain Miller's entire run of 75 crores gross.





Raayan will cross Captain Miller and Ayaalan (76.60 crores gross approx.) by the first Monday or Tuesday to become the 4th highest-grossing Tamil film of the year. By next weekend, it will cross all but Indian 2 to emerge as the second-biggest-grosser and will eventually look to down the Kamal Haasan-starrer to reach the top in the long run.

Dude vs Dragon: Advance Booking Comparison and Pradeep"™s Remarkable Rise

The advance booking trend for Dude and Dragon has sparked noticeable discussion among Tamil cinema audiences, especially with both films carrying significant expectations for different reasons. Dragon, which hit theatres earlier, managed to secure an estimated ₹2 crore in pre-sales ahead of its release. The film"™s performance in advance booking reflected decent anticipation, supported by its scale and a fair level of pre-release visibility. It also saw decent traction in urban centres, with steady ticket sales building up closer to release. In contrast, Dude seems to have turned the spotlight firmly towards itself. The film has registered an impressive ₹6.94 crore gross (including block seats) in advance bookings, which is a significant leap compared to Dragon"™s numbers. This robust start underlines the growing influence of Pradeep Ranganathan, who not only stars in Dude but also directs it. The enthusiasm surrounding the film can be attributed to his unique appeal among the youth audience and his ability to connect through relatable storytelling. Pradeep"™s journey is an inspiring one "” from making short films that resonated deeply online to becoming one of Tamil cinema"™s most promising young writer-directors. His earlier success with Love Today showcased his knack for blending contemporary themes with emotion and humor, a formula that seems to have strengthened his fan base. The excitement around Dude"™s release, coupled with such strong pre-booking numbers, stands as a testament to that curiosity among the audience. While Dragon had shown steady traction during its pre-release phase, Dude"™s performance has clearly set a new benchmark in recent times. The advance booking figures not only highlight the audience"™s confidence in Pradeep"™s brand of cinema but also suggest that Dude could open to a highly encouraging start at the box office.

Against All Odds: How Kantara Transcended Borders, Beliefs, and Box Office Giants Like Coolie

In a year defined by cinematic contrasts, two films have dominated India"™s box office conversation "” Kantara: Chapter 1 and Coolie. One is a rooted, spiritual saga born from Karnataka"™s folklore; the other, a high-voltage pan-India action entertainer led by a superstar ensemble. Yet both, in their own ways, have redefined what success looks like in 2025. While Coolie stormed into theatres with massive pre-release hype and record-breaking advances, Kantara took a different route "” slow, steady, and fuelled by pure audience passion. Together, they reflect the power of both spectacle and soul in Indian cinema"™s ever-evolving landscape. Coolie opened to thunderous numbers, earning around ₹77 crore[India Gross] on its first day and soaring past ₹272 crore in its opening week across all versions. With Rajinikanth leading the charge and Lokesh Kanagaraj at the helm, the film was always destined for a grand start. The advance bookings alone "” crossing ₹46.36 crore[With Block Seats] in India "” signaled a festival at the box office. From Singapore to Chennai, fan celebrations, themed screenings, and paid holidays turned Coolie into more than a film "” it became a cultural event. In contrast, Kantara: Chapter 1 carried forward the legacy of Rishab Shetty"™s 2022 phenomenon with a quieter but deeply resonant entry. Opening to strong word-of-mouth and organic audience buzz, the film saw consistent growth throughout its extended eight-day opening week. The film touched an impressive ₹403.25 crore [India Gross] within that period, driven largely by its Kannada and Telugu versions, with its dubbed releases expanding its reach nationwide. Overseas too, Kantara stunned trade observers by outperforming early estimates, achieving milestone numbers in North America, the UAE, and parts of Europe. Its Hindi version alone entered the ₹100 crore club "” a rare feat for a non-Hindi, folklore-based film. The success of Kantara lies not in marketing muscle but in its emotional pull. The film"™s exploration of divine justice, land, and faith resonated deeply across demographics. Audiences didn"™t just watch it "” they experienced it. This strong connection translated into repeat viewings and minimal weekday drops, with the eighth day itself adding over ₹21.15 crore [India Net] "” proof of its staying power. On the other hand, Coolie exemplified the might of stardom and scale "” a reminder that high-octane storytelling and mass appeal still dominate the multiplex game. Both films thrived, but for very different reasons. Coolie leveraged superstardom, scale, and spectacle, while Kantara harnessed storytelling, authenticity, and emotion. In an industry where marketing often dictates momentum, Kantara"™s rise through sheer audience word-of-mouth shows the timeless power of rooted storytelling. Meanwhile, Coolie"™s performance reaffirms that grand cinema, when executed with precision, can still unify audiences across languages and borders. Together, they form two sides of India"™s cinematic coin "” one shining with grandeur, the other glowing with grace "” and both proving that 2025 truly belongs to every kind of story.

Pradeep Ranganathan"™s Dude (2025) Set to Rule the Diwali Box Office?

Pradeep Ranganathan is set to light up the silver screen once again this Diwali with his much-awaited film Dude (2025), directed by Keerthiswaran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers. Scheduled to release on October 17, the film has already cleared censor formalities with a U/A certificate and a runtime of 139 minutes. The movie stars Pradeep alongside Mamitha Baiju, with R. Sarathkumar and Rohini in key supporting roles, while the music is composed by Sai Abhyankkar. Dude arrives at a crucial moment in Pradeep"™s career "” after the phenomenal success of Love Today and Dragon, two films that turned him from a young creative voice into a reliable box-office draw. Pradeep"™s rise has been remarkable. His directorial-acting debut Love Today (2022) was a modestly budgeted romantic comedy that became one of the most profitable Tamil films of the year, grossing well beyond expectations through strong word-of-mouth and youth appeal. His follow-up, Dragon (2025), expanded his market reach with a larger budget and a pan-regional release, crossing the ₹100-crore mark worldwide and cementing his position as a star with consistent audience pull. Given this track record, expectations for Dude are naturally sky-high, with fans keen to see if he can complete a hat-trick of hits this Diwali. Dude is said to blend youthful romance with emotional family drama, carrying a multigenerational theme that revolves around the sacred thaali and the relationships it symbolizes. Early reports hint at a storyline that reimagines a young Rajinikanth-like personality through Pradeep"™s character, a creative hook that has already generated interest among Tamil audiences. The film"™s pre-release business has also been impressive "” Netflix has reportedly acquired the digital streaming rights for around ₹25 crore, a deal substantial enough to recover most of the production cost even before its theatrical debut. This ensures the producers are already on safe ground, and the theatrical earnings will primarily benefit distributors and exhibitors. Comparing Dude with Pradeep"™s earlier ventures gives some context. Love Today relied heavily on emotional relatability and word-of-mouth, whereas Dragon thrived on scale, music, and spectacle. Dude seems positioned between the two "” big enough to feel festive but still grounded in sentiment and humor. The songs released so far, including "œOorum Blood" and "œSingari," have already gained traction online, and Sai Abhyankkar"™s energetic score adds freshness to Pradeep"™s onscreen persona. The film"™s Diwali timing will also test its endurance against competing releases like Bison and other regional titles. With Mythri Movie Makers"™ strong distribution network and Pradeep"™s growing pan-Indian recognition, Dude could easily dominate multiplex chains in its opening weekend if early reviews are positive. The holiday period offers an added advantage "” sustained footfalls through Monday and Tuesday could push its first-week totals far ahead of regular-season openers. Overall, Dude represents a fascinating moment for Tamil cinema "” a film that merges the commercial instincts of a star on the rise with the storytelling curiosity of a debutant director. With its pre-sale success, carefully timed release, and built-in goodwill from Pradeep"™s previous hits, the movie enters Diwali week as a strong contender for the festival"™s biggest box-office performer. Whether it can turn that promise into another record-breaking run will depend on audience response in the first few days. For now, Dude looks well-positioned to extend Pradeep Ranganathan"™s box-office streak and possibly crown him as the new Diwali favorite of Tamil cinema. Take a look at the India Gross collection of his previous movies Love Today(2022):₹ 78.55 Cr Dragon(2025): ₹ 117.52 Cr

Top 10 Biggest South Indian Opening Day Grossers At The Hindi Box Office: Pushpa 2 Rules As Kantara Chapter 1 Takes 8th Spot

Mumbai, October 3 - South Indian cinema continues to make a mark at the Hindi box office, and the latest to enter the race is Rishab Shetty's Kantara Chapter 1, which has taken a good start in the dubbed version, scoring 18.50 crore opening day. Among the top 10 biggest South Indian openers at the Hindi box office, Kantara 2 has secured the 8th spot. At the very top of the list is Allu Arjun's Pan India phenomenon, Pushpa 2: The Rule, which rewrote box office history with a mammoth 70 crore opening day in Hindi, which is a record. This number is far ahead of every other South release and firmly establishes Pushpa 2 as a true pan-India monster. Kannada superstar Yash's KGF Chapter 2 follows next with 54 crore net opening, a record that held strong until Pushpa 2 arrived. SS Rajamouli's epic blockbuster Baahubali 2: The Conclusion sits at number 3 with 41 crores net. It is worth noting that it was the Baahubali franchise, which originally opened the floodgates for South dominance in Hindi belts. Prabhas, easily the biggest South Indian star in the Hindi market, makes multiple entries in the top 10, with Saaho making it to the top 5, followed by his Kalki 2898 AD. Rajamouli's RRR, along with superstar Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar's sci-fi extravaganza 2.0, also entered the list with solid openings. Breaking into this power-packed list at No. 8, Kantara Chapter 1, which is the second Kannada movie in this coveted list. Unlike mass-heavy commercial entertainers like KGF or Pushpa, Kantara thrives on its unique storytelling, cultural rootedness, and mysticism, yet still managed to draw audiences in large numbers on day one. Prabhas' Salaar Part 1 - Ceasefire, followed by Ram Charan's Game Changer, and Jr. NTR's Devara Part 1, take the remaining spots in the list. The last two are the only films with less than 10 crores net openings in the list in the Hindi version.
