Literally, no hero in South India, perhaps even in Indian cinema - could have pulled off these kind of box office numbers for a film like #JanaNayagan, considering its content and all the negative factors surrounding its release. This is an extraordinary feat by #Vijay. Even if it is an actor's final film, success is never guaranteed. We have seen several stars' farewell films get outright rejected by audiences and fail to register even decent box office collections when the content was not accepted.

During its original release, #JanaNayagan was set to clash with #TheRajasaab, but censor delays postponed it, giving The Rajasaab a solo release 💥 Even after the delay and leak, #JanaNayagan surpassed the lifetime worldwide collection of The Rajasaab by its 4th day morning collection itself 🔥💥

TN Box-office Openings of Big Star's last films 1. Ajith - #GoodBadUgly 31 Cr 2. Rajini - #Coolie 29 Cr 3. Vijay - #JanaNayagan 26 Cr #Thala Ajith remains undisputed King of Opening as #Vijay's last & most hyped film with all powerful release in CM tag couldn't even come close to #Ajith & #Rajni star power!!

#JanaNayagan opens to 26.5 crores in Tamil Nadu. Terrific in A centers, a little off mark in South but overall very impressive for a leaked film.
