Chennai, October 30 - The Tamil film industry rose above its chest in 2023 and delivered back-to-back blockbusters. It all began with Thalapathy Vijay's "Varisu" and Ajith Kumar's "Thunivu" in January as both movies emerged as box office winners despite clashing against each other.

The success of the films above was followed by the second chapter of "Ponniyin Selvan", though it couldn't repeat the magical performance of the "PS-1" it did well enough to emerge as a box office success. There were some more box office winners in the form of "Mark Antony", "Maamannan", "Maaveeran", "Vaathi/SIR", and "Viduthalai Part - 1", but it was "Jailer" and "Leo" that packed the knockout punch.



Superstar Rajinikanth's action drama Jailer, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, was released during the Independence Day weekend on August 10 and made the most of the holiday period. The movie got a largely positive reception and went on to become the second highest-grossing Tamil movie of all time, grossing over 600 crores worldwide.

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj's latest LCU entrant Leo, starring Thalapathy Vijay, is not far behind "Jailer" despite getting a mixed reception. The action drama was released on October 19 and became the first Tamil movie to top 100 crores worldwide on opening day. It has crossed 500 crores worldwide in just 10 days and become only the third Tamil movie ever to do so.

As can be seen in the table, the Thalapathy Vijay-starrer scored higher collection in the first 16 days after both movies opened on Thursday, but at the same time, the Rajinikanth-led movie showed a much better hold during the weekdays due to super positive word of mouth. "Jailer" went on to score approximately 408.50 crores gross domestically, and talking about "Leo", is not far behind but needs to hold strongly in the coming days to top "Jailer" which remains to see.
