Ajay - I was expecting a balanced thread on box office collections in general. What we're seeing is about 7 updates/day on Vijay's Kathithi since its release. Nothing against Kaththi and I would say the same for any other movie in its place. Dont you think its a bit unfair for other movies as far as this thread goes ?
The norm in thread is that whenever a new movie releases, BO data pertaining to that movie is updated and if the movie creates some kinda record, someone does a consolidation of the top 10 charts across regions and updates it. If you find any BO details about any other movie that you want to share here, you can always do that. :)
And before Kaththi release, this thread was untouched for quite a while and I asked a few people to revive this thread.
I've updated this thread myself many times but never restricted to a single movie. I've published 3 movies together trying to give a balanced view. With Kathithi it will be more readable to many if there's a good consolidation of its box office status. If there're continuous updates per day on the movie none other than Vijay's fans would read each one whereas a consolidated chart and its comparison with other movies would spark everybody's interest.
I could post a piece on box office updates only to discover that my post will be drowned by the sheer number of Kaththi updates :)
Thing is collections/records of kaththi collections updated by some reliable sources,distributors by daily basis...
Might refrain from posting articles of same collection report from different websites ..other than this I didn't find any problem with the updates..

Murugadoss tweets Kaththi’s entry to 100 Cr club
By MOVIEBUZZ
AR Murugadoss has Tweeted today afternoon that his Kaththi has entered the coveted Rs 100 Crore club. Murugadoss Tweeted : “ Kaththi hits 100 in 12 days, still going strong.Total Rs 100.7cr, India 80.5 Overseas: 20.2 Thanks to all audience & media.”
As per sources close to ARM, Kaththi has collected Rs 65.1 Cr from Tamil Nadu in 12 days and remaining nearly 14.9 Cr from Karnataka, Kerala and rest of India. So far no official breakdown of the figure has been given.
Meanwhile trade sources in Tamil Nadu are doubting the figures. In Tamil Nadu there is a cap on ticket rates and such high figures can be obtained only by charging higher ticket rate. Anyway the Kaththi team believes that the film has collected Rs 100 Crore plus from theatricals alone and director himself has tweeted it.
First 5 days in TN 36C Next 7 days Approx 30C Next 7 days 24C expecting :mrgreen:
There is no cap in ticket rates for the first two weeks in TN, except Chennai city limits. My friend watched Kaththi on the second day for 300 bucks in Nagercoil and I watched it paying 200 on the first day in a nearby place.
Deepavali Festive week ok..Next week i dont think its possible to get such occupancy in weekdays to end up just 6C short of 5 day festive weekend.Even Ticket price in B C stations will be close to actuals may be slightly inflated..

#Kaththi's WORLDWIDE GROSS of 100 crores is gaining more authenticity now. With more portals reporting abt it. Kudos to the team #Vijay #ARM
Pls check Kaththi tickets rates in Tirunelveli for tomorrow's shows using bookmyshow.com. At places with Kaththi being released in one or two screens, the prices are still on the high side.

Vijay-starrer Kaththi enters Rs.100-crore club, makes it a hat-trick for Murugadoss :
Tamil film Kaththi is the newest entrant into the Rs.100-crore club worldwide. It is also AR Murugadoss' third film to do so and that too in a row after Thuppakki and Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty.
Other Tamil films to have made it to the Rs.100-crore club include Enthiran, Vishwaroopam and Thuppakki. However, Kaththi was the fastest to make it.
"Very special day! #Kaththihitsfastest100cr! Total theatrical collection -100.7cr (65.1 ATN, 20.2 overseas, 15.4 others) (sic)," the film's music composer Anirudh Ravichander tweeted on Monday.

Starring Vijay and Samantha Ruth Prabhu in the lead, the film addresses the plight of farmers, whose lands are being taken over by multinational companies.
Murugadoss will soon start working on his Hindi project with Sonakshi Sinha.The film is reportedly a remake of Tamil thriller Mouna Guru.
what is Kaththi's budget?
I think it's about 70 crore
40C - 20C for VJ + 20C for ARM....rest all were a part of the movie since it is either for VJ or for ARM :lol:Quote:

Never going to happen. We will always doubt it even if we count all the money ourself.
Simple. We will believe what we want to believe and not believe what we don't want to believe. Applies to all. :)Quote:

Are you all believing the hindi bo numbers? well...the numbers for Krish3 are inflated. Even heard about the movies Dhoom3, Bang Bang etc. We will know about the actual figures about HNY a few weeks later. People just inflate numbers. :)
