Tamil cinema is witnessing the rise of a new box office star, and his name is Soori! The critically acclaimed sports action drama Mandaadi, starring the beloved actor in the lead role, is continuing its incredibly successful theatrical run.
After dominating its second weekend with fantastic numbers, the film naturally faced a weekday dip on its second Monday (Day 12). However, the slight drop does not diminish the monumental records the film has already shattered. Having officially entered the elite ₹100 crore club, Mandaadi has cemented its status as one of the biggest Tamil blockbusters of the year.
Here is a complete and detailed breakdown of the Day 12 box office figures, domestic totals, and Soori’s historic worldwide milestone!
The Day 12 Box Office: A Standard Monday Drop
Following a massive second weekend where the film grossed over ₹21 crore, Mandaadi saw a significant drop in its daily collections on Monday, September 21 (Day 12).
According to industry trackers, the film recorded a noticeable decline in its daily earnings due to the start of the working week. Despite the drop, the sports action drama’s total India net collection has now reached a highly impressive ₹77.66 crore, inching incredibly close to the ₹78 crore mark. On the domestic gross box office front, the film has minted an estimated ₹88.32 crore.
The film continues to perform exceptionally well in its home state, Tamil Nadu, which remains its biggest contributor, bringing in over ₹61 crore. The Telugu-dubbed version has also proven to be highly lucrative, contributing over ₹15 crore to the overall domestic earnings.
A Historic Milestone: Soori Enters The ₹100 Crore Club
While the domestic numbers are staggering, the international audience has fully embraced this raw and gripping sports drama. With steady overseas contributions, the worldwide gross collection of Mandaadi has officially crossed the monumental ₹106 crore mark.
This milestone is deeply personal and historic for Soori. Transitioning from an uncredited background artist to a celebrated comedian, and now successfully headlining a ₹100 crore blockbuster as the main lead, his journey is being hailed as one of the most inspiring success stories in Kollywood history. Mandaadi marks the first film of his entire career to breach the coveted century mark globally.
The Power of ‘Mandaadi’
The massive success of Mandaadi proves that audiences are hungry for deeply rooted, content-driven action dramas. The film’s authentic portrayal of sports politics, raw action sequences, and Soori’s intense performance have successfully pulled audiences into theaters across multiple languages.
As the film continues its weekday run, trade analysts predict it will maintain a steady pace, ultimately wrapping up its theatrical window as a historic and highly profitable venture.
