Thug Life box office collection day 9: Kamal Haasan-Mani Ratnam film yet to cross ₹50 crore mark after a week of release - Hindustan Times

"Thug Life," the much-anticipated collaboration between Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam, has concluded its first week with a box office collection of ₹44 crore. Despite the star-studded lineup and high expectations, the film has struggled to gain significant momentum. As it enters its second week, the total earnings have reached ₹44.75 crore, indicating a modest increase in viewership. The film, which marks the reunion of two cinematic icons, was expected to be a major draw for audiences. However, it faces stiff competition from other releases, which may have impacted its overall performance. While the storyline and performances have received praise, the film has yet to achieve the box office success that was anticipated. As "Thug Life" continues its theatrical run, industry analysts are closely watching to see if it can cross the ₹50 crore mark. With strategic marketing efforts and positive word-of-mouth, the film still has the potential to attract more viewers. Fans of Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam remain hopeful that their collaboration will eventually resonate more widely with audiences.
