Vijay Sethupathi's 'Maharaja' Scores 27 Crore Gross In The Opening Weekend At The China Box Office

Chennai, December 1 - Vijay Sethupathi's action thriller Maharaja has become the 15th highest-grossing Indian movie at the Chinese box office after a very good opening weekend which saw the film crossing the $3 million mark there.

After scoring $2.30 million (19.50 crores gross) in the first 2 days (including premieres), Maharaja scored approximately 900K (7.50 crores gross) on Sunday, pushing the total collection to around $3.2 million (27 crores) in the opening weekend.



With $3.2 million, Maharaja has become the 15th highest-grossing Indian movie in China (in terms of dollars) while in Indian currency, it has become the 13th biggest grosser there by beating Drishyam (27 crore gross), Kaabil (23.50 crores gross), and 102 Not Out (22.50 crores gross).

Directed by Nithilan Saminathan, Maharaja's next target is Aamir Khan's Thugs Of Hindostan which grossed approximately 60 crores in China. If it manages to hold well during the working day, the movie can get close to that target which will be a good result.

The total worldwide collection of Maharaja is now around 133 crores gross and is heading towards the 150 crores mark. It is one of the biggest Tamil blockbusters of the year and easily the biggest hit for Vijay Sethupathi and director Nithilan.
