Thalaivan Thalaivii storms past 100 crore globally, marks major milestone for Vijay Sethupathi

Thalaivan Thalaivii has officially crossed the 100 crore mark at the global box office, becoming only the second Vijay Sethupathi-led film to achieve this feat after Maharaja. Directed by Pandiraj, the film pairs VJS with Nithya Menen in a heartwarming family drama that has resonated strongly with audiences.

The film’s emotional core, rooted in family values and everyday relationships, struck a chord particularly with the family audience, a segment often underserved in mainstream Tamil cinema. This connection has translated into a strong and sustained box office performance both in India and overseas.

Produced by Sathya Jyothi Films, Thalaivan Thalaivii also marks a triumphant return for the banner to box office glory post Viswasam. The film’s enjoyable screenplay, wholesome performances, and relatable storytelling have made it a major success, drawing crowds long after its opening weekend.

Despite its OTT release just a couple of days ago, Thalaivan Thalaivii is still running in selected screens, holding its ground opposite the mega biggie Coolie. This enduring theatrical run further underscores the film’s solid connect with the audience and its status as one of the year’s most celebrated Tamil releases.
