Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam’s much-hyped gangster drama Thug Life continued its disappointing run on the Indian field workplace, with early estimates suggesting a paltry Rs 1.75-2 crore gross on its sixth day, Tuesday, June 10, 2025. Following a dismal first Monday that noticed collections plummet to Rs 2.25 crore, the movie’s downward spiral is displaying no indicators of restoration, marking it as one of many greatest theatrical disasters for the enduring actor-director duo.
After an prolonged opening weekend that amassed Rs 40.75 crore (with Rs 33 crore from Tamil Nadu and Rs 7.75 crore from the remainder of India), Thug Life did not handle even respectable collections over the weekdays. The movie’s Day 6 collections point out outright rejection by audiences. Tamil Nadu, the movie’s strongest market, continues to contribute the lion’s share, however even there, occupancies have dwindled, with every day occupancies of underneath 20 on common. The Hindi and Telugu markets have contributed negligibly.
The Day Sensible Field Workplace Collections of Thug Life in India are as follows:
Thursday – Rs. 17.00 cr.
Friday – Rs. 7.50 cr.
Saturday – Rs. 8.75 cr.
Sunday – Rs. 7.50 cr.
Monday Rs 2.25 cr.
Tuesday Rs 1.75 cr.
Complete – Rs. 44.75 cr. gross in 6 days
The movie, starring Kamal Haasan, Trisha Krishnan, Silambarasan TR, and others, was anticipated to redeem Haasan’s field workplace standing after the underwhelming Indian 2, which grossed Rs 150 crore worldwide and was deemed a catastrophe. Nonetheless, Thug Life is trending even decrease, with a projected India gross whole of underneath Rs 60 crore and a world gross whole of under Rs 100 crore. This can be a far cry from Haasan’s blockbuster Vikram, which stormed the field workplace three years in the past.
The absence of a Karnataka launch, on account of controversy over Haasan’s remarks on the Kannada language positively dented its efficiency, however the loss in potential is underneath Rs 5 crore seeing the rejection that the film has seen.
In distinction, Housefull 5, which launched a day after Thug Life, has already surpassed Rs 100 crore in India and is eyeing a Rs 200 crore international end, highlighting the stark hole in viewers reception. Whereas Thug Life’s non-theatrical offers guarantee producers keep away from monetary losses, the movie’s theatrical failure is a major blow for Haasan and Ratnam, whose reunion after Nayakan carried very sky-high expectations.
With collections now barely holding on, Thug Life is about to wrap its theatrical run as one in all 2025’s greatest disappointments. Have you ever watched the crime-actioner? Share your ideas under. Additionally, keep tuned to Pinkvilla for extra field workplace updates.
