Vijay Sethupathi is back to rule the box office after a dull start at the box office this year with Merry Christmas, which was released in Hindi and Tamil. Helmed by Sriram Raghavan and starring Katrina Kaif, the film had a good buzz that could not translate into box office numbers. Now, the superstar is back with Maharaja.

Maharaja Worldwide Box Office Collection

Currently, Vijay Sethupathi’s drama thriller has collected 28.50 crore worldwide. This is the weekend collection for the film that got a massive jump in India on the first Sunday of its release. Overseas, the film, in three days, has collected 3.35 crore gross.

If, over the week, the film crosses the 40 – 45 crore mark worldwide, then it will be in the running to touch the highest-grossing films of 2024 in Tamil, starting from Dhanush’s Captain Miller and finishing at Tamannaah Bhatia‘s Aranmanai 4.
