'Vettaiyan' box office collection: Rajinikanth's film fails to surpass Vijay's 'GOAT' in the North American premiere

'Vettaiyan' featuring Rajinikanth in the lead role has arrived in theatres today (Oct 10), and the film has been released in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada languages. 'Vettaiyan' is off to a lavish start as Rajinikanth's film always does. It's one more $1 million film for the Superstar Rajinikanth in the North American premiere. According to Cinetrak, 'Vettaiyan' grossed around $1.1 million from the North American premiere, and it splits between $900K from USA and around $220K from Canada. But 'Vettaiyan' failed to beat the North American premiere collection of Vijay's 'GOAT', which was released a month back.

'Vettaiyan' is receiving positive reviews from fans, while the cop-thriller looks like a decent watch for the general audience. However, Rajinikanth's latest release is positioned to climb well at the box office across locations. The opening day number for 'Vettaiyan' is anticipated to be around Rs 100 crore despite a working day release, and the reservations for the film looks strong for the upcoming days as the Dussehra holidays follow.

'Vettaiyan' features an ensemble cast, including Rajinikanth in the lead role as a police officer, with Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, and Dushara Vijayan playing significant roles. The storyline delves into the ethical debate surrounding police encounters, with Rajinikanth’s character endorsing them and Bachchan’s character opposing them. This film marks the iconic reunion of Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan after their collaboration in the 1991 release 'Hum'. The investigation thriller has music composed by Anirudh Ravichander, with cinematography by S.R. Kathir and editing by Philomin Raj.
