Maharaja Day 1 Collection: Is Vijay Sethupathi Crowned as Maharaja?
The first-day collection of Vijay Sethupathi’s ‘Maharaja,’ released yesterday, has now been revealed.
Vijay Sethupathi is known for his versatility in Tamil cinema, taking on diverse roles from villain to action hero to father, effortlessly adapting to any character. This ability is a key factor in his cinematic success, earning him the title of the king of realistic acting without ever showing undue emotion.
‘Maharaja,’ marking Vijay Sethupathi’s 50th film, premiered yesterday amid high expectations from fans. In this film, Vijay Sethupathi portrays a barber. The trailer had already garnered significant attention, and the film continues to receive positive reviews post-release.
Directed by Nithilan, who debuted with ‘Kurangu Pomi,’ ‘Maharaja’ features a talented cast including Abhirami, Mamata Mohandas, Natti Natraj, and Bollywood actor-director Anurag Kashyap. While milestone films often face immense pressure and risk of failure due to heightened fan expectations, ‘Maharaja’ appears to be an exception, with fans hailing it as a hit for Vijay Sethupathi.
The film reportedly collected over 7 crores worldwide on its first day. With the extended weekend including Saturday, Sunday, and the Bakrit holiday on Monday, the collections are expected to surpass initial estimates.
