Inga ellarum, Kerela, UAE, UK, US , Australia, Malaysia, Singapore box office report ellam post panraaanga ..... There is one big Hole, TN.

So pesa onnum illa. TN collections alone determine, Hit, Breakeven or Flop status. Vera onnum solla illa.

Ajith is a big brand and his movie has a better WOM. Jilla was targeted early by reviewers and the WOM was not that good. Many are saying, Veeram is Ajith's biggest movie in terms of its ability to attract all kinds of audiences, Jilla is clearly not Vijay's best, maybe Thuppakki was. Yet Jilla is doing wonderfully well with precious little to choose between the two even in Chennai. As you rightly say, Vijay is the driving force in TN for Jilla and it seems he is braving off bad reviews single-handedly. To me that is shear Star Power. Also, the pre-business w.r.t distribution and theaters in Chennai and other parts of TN clearly went for Jilla. That is also an indicator.

Anyways, as much as we debate, as Mareen says, both movies are doing well and that is good news.

jilla got mixed reviews..good and bad...

and all vijay fans gave good WOM.
plus success meet just in 3 days

I remember reading an article from Sify that said Nanan did not even break even.....not sure how much of it is true. This 545 Rubees Sridhar pillai kitta poi thaan kekanum. Can't find the link. But here is one link which shows breakeven : http://www.sify.com/movies/2012--Top...ymFPgigch.html

Loss or breakever depends on the total that was spent and how much it earned in box office. Sankar enna Nanban freeyava direct panni irupaaru? I'm sure he charges hefty fees. Unless the movie went berserk at BO, there is no way it can meet the gargatuan fees charged by Vijay and Shankar. But there is noway single way to point out the actual BO colections is TN which is the major problem and point of discussion here.

BTW I personally liked 3 idiots and did not bother watching nanban since it was 1:1

The same rule of thumb applies for Jilla as well. Mahanlal got distribution rights for kerala for Jilla movie instead of salary. I'm not sure how much fee he charges, assuming he charges atleast 50-60% the fees as tamil super stars (like Ajith Vijay or Surya which runs to about 20 Cr.) Movie has to run beyond this 10-12 cr business before he makes profit. So before people makes too much claims of Box office report from Kerala, think through it ....

good reply freedom

This is not even a comparison and it is a sin to compare. However both have strengths and weaknesses. I simply loved Verasa and kandangi song. Vijay looks smashing to say the least!!

Only thing to think through is how much can producers and distributors can make since we don't have any exact figures for TN box office!!

Not that I have known of. This is infact significant. If both of the movies had released solo, my guess is they would have garnered more money at all markets. the market is clearly split. US Box office is a prime example!

However remember one thing, if Vijay' movie had good WOM contrary to now, Veeram would have been declared washout by Many Vijay fans. You can't deny that can you?

apadi elam solamuidyathu boss,if movie is good means no one can stop the sucess
