TN Box office reach is amazing. A state with double the population of Kerala itself contributed 200 crores in 18 days. So much support from the people, government and media to their language and their movies. It is hard for a mega hit Malayalam movie to collect 75 crores from Kerala even in weeks. ROI and Overseas market is also much bigger for Tamil movies.
#PonniyinSelvan becomes the 1st movie ever in the History of Tamil Cinema Industry to breach the $20Million USD @ The Overseas Box Office!!
Need to check the below for factual correctness. But if correct, its a great achievement!!
₹200cr grosser states in India
Maharashtra - #Baahubali2 - ₹220cr
Andhra Pradesh - #RRR - ₹223cr
Tamil Nadu - #PonniyinSelvan - ₹201cr (18 days)
