- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,October 08 2016]
All the three Aayudha Pooja weekend releases of Kollywood that released yesterday have taken good to very good opening at the Chennai Box Office.
As the film released amid huge expectations and in a humongous number of screens , Sivakarthikeyan's 'Remo' has got the biggest opening day collection. The film has netted Rs.51 lakhs (approx) on the first day itself in Chennai. There were pre-dawn and early morning special shows that were houseful. The film is expected to perform exceptionally well in the remaining days of the weekend.
It is worth noting that the collection is the net figure as the film has been exempted from the Entertainment Tax payable to the Government.
VIjay Sethupathi's 'Rekka' has made approximately Rs.20 lakhs from Chennai screens on day 1, This film also had special shows screened at 8 am in many places. The film directed by Rathina Siva has got decent reviews and expected to run with houseful shows in the coming days of the weekend.
Prabhudeva's comeback film 'Devi' released without big hype and has collected a decent Rs.10 lakhs (approx) in Chennai BO on its first day. The film did not have any special morning shows in Chennai.
But this film has got positive reviews from all sections and the footfall is expected to pick up tremendously from today..
