Beginning in early June, the movie took off like a high-speed train and shattered virtually all of the previous Kollywood records over the following several weeks.

Among the many other milestones, the most notable was surpassing Baahubali 2 by a large margin of around Rs. 40 crores to become the biggest grosser ever in Tamil Nadu. A first for Kollywood in a long time—Enthiran in 2010 was likely the previous one—the movie drew 1 crore footfalls and 1.22 crore admissions to state theatres.
