Good Bad Ugly box office collection day 1

Ajith Kumar’s latest Tamil film Good Bad Ugly has made a powerful impact at the box office on its first day. The movie collected an impressive Rs 28.50 crore in India, making it Ajith’s best-ever opening day in his career. The film was highly awaited by fans and opened to packed theatres in many parts of the country. In Tamil Nadu, especially in cities like Chennai and Coimbatore, the movie had a theatre occupancy of over 95% for evening shows. The average occupancy for the entire day was 76%, which is a strong sign of its popularity.

This film’s success has beaten Ajith’s previous record held by Valimai, which earned ₹28 crore on its first day in 2022. Even his recent film Vidaamuyarchi, which was released earlier this year, had made ₹22 crore on day one. So, Good Bad Ugly has clearly performed better than both of them. The movie’s mass appeal, strong promotions, and Ajith’s loyal fan base helped it get such a grand opening.

Good Bad Ugly is a Tamil-language action comedy directed by Adhik Ravichandran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers and T-Series Films. Apart from Ajith, the movie features a strong cast including Prabhu, Prasanna, Arjun Das, Sunil, Rahul Dev, Yogi Babu, and Shine Tom Chacko. The film follows a classic gangster-style storyline but presents it with a modern, stylish, and entertaining touch that pays tribute to Ajith’s iconic image.

According to early reports, the film is receiving positive responses from the audience. Fans seem to be enjoying the action-packed, massy entertainer, which brings Ajith back to his comfort zone after a few low-key films. The movie is expected to do well not only in India but also in overseas markets, thanks to Ajith’s strong global fan following.

As the final numbers come in, Good Bad Ugly might become one of the highest-grossing Tamil film openers ever. It’s clear that Ajith Kumar still has a strong grip on the box office and remains one of the biggest stars in Tamil cinema. This film is a big win for him, the team, and his fans.
