ADIRINDI MOVIE BOXOFFICE HITS:
Adirindhi,
the Telugu dubbed version of Vijay’s Mersal, which finally released in Andhra
and Telangana after three weeks of long wait, has grossed around Rs 6 crore in
its opening weekend, according to trade sources. While the official numbers are
yet to come in, it’s believed to be the biggest opening in Vijay’s career in
Telugu. “Despite mixed feedback to the content, the film has taken a huge
opening at the box-office. It’s undoubtedly the biggest opener for Vijay in
Telugu. With Adirindhi, his market base in Telugu is sure to grow bigger,” a
source from the trade said.
In Telugu, Vijay’s biggest grosser till date is Snehitudu, the dubbed
version of Shankar’s Nanban. The film has rumoured to have grossed over Rs 10
crore during its lifetime run. Adirindhi may have done bigger business had it
had a simultaneous release along with its Tamil version, but given its strong
opening it still has a chance to make a killing at the box-office.
Directed by Atlee,
the film features Vijay in a triple role. He plays a magician, a doctor and a
village head while Kajal Aggarwal, Samantha and Nithya Menen essay the leading
ladies. Mersal has emerged as a blockbuster and has become the biggest grosser
in Vijay’s career with over earnings of Rs 230 crore worldwide and counting.
Produced by Sri Thenandal Studios, the film has music by AR Rahman. It is believed
that with the earnings of the Telugu version, the film might enter the Rs 250
crore club.
