Parasakthi box office collection day 1: Sudha Kongara\u2019s Parasakthi, starring Sivakarthikeyan<\/a>, Sreeleela, Ravi Mohan and Atharvaa in lead roles, was released in theatres on Saturday after being cleared by the CBFC at the last minute. The film\u2019s opening, while decent, failed to beat the openings of Sivakarthikeyan\u2019s previous films, Amaran and Madharaasi.<\/p>\n

According to Sacnilk<\/a>, Parasakthi brought in a collection of an estimated \u20b911.50 crore net in India on its opening day. The film showed an occupancy of 62.79% in Tamil. While decent, this number means that it failed to beat the openings of Sivakarthikeyan\u2019s previous films.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Amaran registered a \u20b924.7 crore opening after being released on a Thursday, and the 2025 film Madharaasi had a \u20b913.65 crore opening on a Friday. Parasakthi has also not surpassed the openings of Vijay<\/a>\u2019s 2024 film The GOAT, which registered a \u20b952 crore opening on a Thursday, and Kamal Haasan\u2019s 2025 film The Thug Life, which had an opening of \u20b915.5 crore.<\/p>\n

Parasakthi will get a chance for a good run in theatres for Pongal now, with almost no competition, given that Vijay\u2019s Jana Nayagan\u2019s release was postponed due to certification issues<\/a>. It remains to be seen if this will prove advantageous for the film in the long run.<\/p>\n
