Ilayathalapathy Vijay & A.R Muragadoss' Thuppakki

[raajarasigan]

Watched Thuppakki yesterday evening in Chrompet Vetri... really liked it.. :) ARM fully used Vijay who can always be a safe bet for action movies.. Pre-interval sequence of sleeping cells ellAm pullarippu... :clap: ARM has the knack of telling a story by not letting the audience to think much (you could not find certain plots illogical).

Of course, the movie has its own share of drawbacks - ARM :hammer: padatha mudichuttu ory thabA audience'a pAkkurathillayA... felt the same thing even in Ghajini / 7AM arivu...epdiyA indha padathula unakku 4 Duet vekka manasu varuthu.. it is almost certain that you may forget what happened earlier after each duet.. songs onnu kooda naala illa (incl google in which the saranam is straight rip-off from aachi manorama's portion in Madrasa sutthi (May maadham). The movie would have been much much better had all the 4 duets been cut. To my surprisem HJ faired well in important sequences. Still, he was clueless in the title track (reminds KK title track). Other technical aspects like cinematography, editing, stunts ellam nallA irunchu...

Overall, a neat action entertainer from ARM-Vijay :thumbsup:

P.S: This is my 4th movie Chrompet Vetri. Earlier, I watched Endhiran, Naan E & Kalakalappu. So far, 4-0 for me as well as box office.

Thuppakki is no different from Vijay's other mass masala entertainers. But why has it attained such a phenomenal success? I tried to list down a few reasons.

- ARM had shown a Vijay who appealed to all classes of audience. Tremendous work has gone behind in improving his costumes and physique. Special thanks to Komal, the costume designer for Vijay in Thuppakki

- Heroism was PERFECT. No over the top dialogues or fancy stunts. Jagdish enters the scenes whenever the audience wants him to. Special thanks to Kecha, who has done a great job with the action sequences.

- Whenever the villain is as good as the hero, we are in for a treat. An Antony for Baasha, Muthupandi for Saravana Velu and now this nameless for Jagdish. Vidyut has all the talents and looks for becoming a big star in the future.

- The screenplay was slick. Gone are the days when movies used to run for the face value of heroes. Now the stars' crowd pull only helps for the initial opening. The sustaining solely depends on the word I mentioned in the first line - screenplay. All the recent hits will prove my statement.

- It has been quite a while since there was a movie with army as the back drop. Thuppakki is not without flaws. But when you finish off the movie with a line - Dedicated to the Indian Army and their families - your sins are to be pardoned.


ARM has left all options wide open for Thuppakki II. No information on people who instruct Jagdish and bigger/higher leaders in the Terror N/W.
Its like how you feel after watching a movie such as Bourne Identify, completely satisfied for a first part, at the same time the movie had enough questions for pursuing sequels. It only looks like a natural extension for Thuppakki II to take shape.

Ilayathalapathy Vijay threw a success party to the whole 'Thuppakki' team and he and Chiyaan Vikram who attended the party seemed to have bonded well and shared some moments.

Just as Vijay did not miss to give a special invitation to Vidyut Jamwal neither did he miss to invite Chiyaan Vikram and it looked like Vikram and Vijay were very good friends.

Vijay took an opportunity through the party to thank the team after receiving good word of mouth, rave reviews from film critics and a tremendous response from the audience for his recent Diwali release movie 'Thuppakki'.

The whole team of Thuppakki, including director Murugadoss and producer Thanu joined the success party of the film.

[CEDYBLUE]

Sharmila Ravinder: Enjoyed a tamil movie after what seemed like ages. #thupakki .. Vijay has done well, this movie would certainly catapult him to the top ..
Thuppakki is brilliant,it would certainly catapult Vijay to the very top.

Actor Arun Vijay: Thuppaki was good..but for the frequent songs da screen play was brilliant.Vijay played the character extremely well.Cheers to vijay fans:-)

Thuppakki mints Rs.65.32 crore worldwide in opening week
Indo-Asian News Service | Tuesday, November 20, 2012 ( Chennai )


http://cdn.ndtv.com/movies/images/vijay-thuppakki.jpg

The film, directed by A.R. Murugadoss, opened on Diwali, November 13, and hit over 1,000 screens worldwide.

Vijay-starrer Tamil action-thriller Thuppakki collected Rs.65.32 crore worldwide in its opening week.

"The film collected Rs.65.32 crore worldwide in the first week. In Tamil Nadu, 'Thuppakki' raked in Rs.40 crore and above in the first six days and it continues to run to packed houses. It is also doing good business in neighbouring states such as Kerala and Andhra Pradesh," trade analyst Trinath told IANS.

The film, directed by A.R. Murugadoss, opened on Diwali, November 13, and hit over 1,000 screens worldwide.

According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Thuppakki collected Rs.1.18 crore in Britain, Rs.1.76 crore in the US and Rs.37.99 lakh in Australia, in its opening weekend.

The movie's story is about a captain from the Indian army, played by Vijay, who is on a vacation in Mumbai and gets involved in a terrorist scheme, which turns out to be bigger than anticipated.

The makers had to cut a few scenes from the film a few days after its release in Tamil Nadu, following concerns raised by members of the Muslim community who felt that certain scenes would hurt their sentiments.

"Some scenes were cut following the protest, but that hardly had any impact on the film's run at the box-office," Trinath added.

Kajal Agarwal, Satyan, Mano Bala, Vidyut Jamwal and Jayaram feature in key roles in the film, which has music by Harris Jeyaraj, cinematography by Santosh Sivan and editing by Sreekar Prasad.

Why is the dog called sniper dog? Saw it being mentioned on Twitter a few times but it doesn't make sense?

[ajaybaskar]

Not Sniper. Sniffer dog. It means a trained dog which uses it sense of smell to detect things. Sniper is an entirely different one. It means a professional marksman.

Chennai Diwali Box-Office (Nov. 13 to 18)
Tuesday, 20 November , 2012, 13:52


Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s AR Murgadoss directed Thuppakki has stormed the Diwali box-office. It has taken an earth shaking 6- day Diwali thundering box-office and is the clear number one by a mile. The film has netted approximately Rs 4.60 Crore from 41 screens in six days, which is awesome.
No other film has touched even one fourth of Thuppakki`s Diwali opening. At number two is Podaa Podi, which is above average and is being liked by the multiplex audiences. In the third place is Shah Rukh Khan’s Jab Tak Hain Jaan the other big Diwali release which is just average.

And in the fourth place is the steady super hit Pizza, which is still getting good audiences during the Diwali weekend. It has already taken a share of Rs 1.36 Crore from Chennai city, which is very good considering the film was made for Rs 1.55 Cr!

And in the fifth place is Thangar Bachchan’s Ammavin Kaipesi, which would have done better if it was not released for Diwali.

though i'm not even a kaththu kutti in music.. i can atleast connect the scene & the music played in the background..
harris jeyaraj is completely clueless in what to do for re-recording..
all of a sudden he plays dum dum dum drums for some kind of action scenes..
for sentimental scene..vijay in search of his sister.. he plays flute kind of instrument.. idhu ellam 20 yrs back'laye IR use panna technique..
& the rap bit for kajal :lol2:

whatever producers paying for harris is a waste.. better to go for yuvan / gvp..

same kind of experience recently i had in Mugamoodi.. i guess K's fav instrument in violin.. padam fulla adhaye vasichukittu irukkaru..

as usual ARM writes some below average unintentional fun dialogues like "10 digit no.. then it should be a mobile phone no." [ghajini]

but.. at present, he is one of the most consistent commercial director in tamil..

Oh. Sniffer. Makes sense. I know what's a sniffer and sniper bro. Just that a sniper dog didn't make sense. Guess the person miswrote it.

That is why I said, it is very tough to reach that 100 C mark. Our overseas market is only growing and it is nowhere near the market that bollywood films enjoy. And we also confuse between gross and nett.

Oscar Ravichandran reported a gross of over 200 crore. So Dasavatharam Net should be over 100 crore as dasa budget is not over 100 crore. I was around 60+ crore.

Sathyam cinemas has added special morning shows in 4 screens this weekend....:smokesmirk:

[Avadi to America]

Oscar Ravichandran reported a gross of over 200 crore. So Dasavatharam Net should be over 100 crore as dasa budget is not over 100 crore. I was around 60+ crore.

In general, Net is not related with production cost. In trade, if someone talks about the net collection, then he/she probably speaks for theatre owneres/distributors. For dasavatharam, i think the producer and distributor are the same. this would be completely different equation.
IMO, the net collection means gross revenue (number of tickets * price)-operating & maintanece cost-any damages cost- entertainment tax. the gross revenues are reported based on official ticket price rather than actual price.

Irrespective of Thuppakki's final numbers w.r.t. BO, one think is very clear. Thuppakki will surely break into top 3 in the all-time list with only Superstar and Ulaganayagan movies above Thuppakki.

I remember what Director Shankar said during Nanban's audio release "Everyone likes Vijay, after Nanban even people who don't like him will start liking him". Thuppakki has once again proven that when Vijay join hands with a good director, the result is massive. I really hope that Vijay learns a lesson or two in this.

Specifically for these reasons,I would like Vijay not to miss Ameer's project because I believe even if it is an experimental flick with Vijay on board, it will have far greater commercial value than other experimental movies. Vijay shouldn't miss this.

Same can be said about Gautham Menon. Notwithstanding his excellent 'time management' skills, Gautham Menon has a happy knack of delivering good commercial movies. If Gautham Menon and Vijay, join hands again the potential will be just huge. Hope this happens as well.

One doubt in Gun.

During the 12 sleeper cell assassination (before Vijay and his team follow the terrorist leader (right after marriage scene) who escapes from Vijay's house) logically, the terrorist could kill his family (or at least one of his family members) before escaping and re-grouping with the other sleeper cells?

During the 12 sleeper cell assassination (before Vijay and his team follow the terrorist leader (right after marriage scene) who escapes from Vijay's house) logically, the terrorist could kill his family (or at least one of his family members) before escaping and re-grouping with the other sleeper cells?

Who told he is a terrorist leader?
How do he know about vijay's family?

*) he is not a leader..... he is one among the sleeper cells
*)his first priority is to escape and carry out the planned attacks on that day
*)He would have regained conscience only then...... he doesn't even know whether Vijay is in the house ..... So he would not attempt to attack his family (because he can assume that Vijay is there in the house and he could get caught again)
*)He doesn't have any arms

[ajaybaskar]

Sleeper cells only operate on the orders of their commanders. They are not supposed to take decisions on their own.

Who told he is a terrorist leader?
How do he know about vijay's family?
For this type of suggestions , ARM already told in movie itself as ' appdi panni irukkalaam ; ippadi panni irukkalaam while watching movie in TV

Ajith on Thuppakki

After the recent success of Thuppakki, Vijay and A.R.Murugadoss are understandably elated. Box-office returns and reviews have been positive from day 1.Recently, Ajith took some time out to congratulate and wish Vijay as well as Murugadoss on their success. He was impressed with their work and was profuse in his praise. Both of them were elated at this gesture from Ajith.Ajith and Vijay are known to be close friends in real life inspite of being professional contemporaries. This news is bound to get both sets of fans, who are often at loggerheads with one another, delighted.

muslim terrorism was introduced to tamil cinema by Maniratnam in Roja...

Yeah true, but since then it has always been VK and Arjun running after them, so this has been happening for almost 20 odd years, nothing new. :)

kajal looks cute and still when she comes we get a feeling of 'no! not another song!'...
worst music album for a vj movie imo... the first song sounded like a hindi-tamil dubber song for me...
vijay is superfit and cool... and the villain is equally smart...
bgms sounded ok to me...so many uruvals... this guy still uses the traditional music for a terrorist and the usual trumpet for indian army... minnalae bgm ellam vandhuchu in the second half.... plis to no hj anymore...
weak family characterisation... arm could hav spent some more time on this... one of the usp's of gilli was his family...
jayaram was ok and lol at times...

The Villian was one of the plus point in the movie, he was given equal screen share as the hero.This has been a healthy trend in all AGM movies.

விமர்சனம் : துப்பாக்கி

விகடன் விமர்சனக் குழு






தீவிரவாதிகளை வேட்டையாடும் ராணுவத் 'துப்பாக்கி’!
ராணுவ வீரனான விஜய் விடுமுறைக்கு மும்பைக்கு வந்த வேளையில், ஒரு திருடனைப் பிடிப்பதற்கு பதில் தீவிரவாதியைப் பிடித்துவிடுகிறார். அவனிடம் இருந்து தொடர் குண்டுவெடிப்புத் திட்டத்தைத் தெரிந்துகொண்டு, தன் ராணுவ நண்பர்களைத் துணையாகக்கொண்டு 'ஸ்லீப்பர் செல்’நபர்களை ரகசியமாக வேட்டையாடுகிறார். மொத்த நெட்வொர்க்கையும் இயக்கும் 'மாஸ்டர் மைண்ட்’ வில்லன் தன் சகாக்களைக் கொன்ற ரகசியத் துப்பாக்கி யார் என்று தேடும் முயற்சியில், பலர் உயிர்இழக்கிறார்கள். விஜய் தன்னையே பணயமாகவைத்து வில்லனைச் சந்திக்கச் செல்வது டிக்டிக் திக்திக் க்ளைமாக்ஸ்!
தியேட்டரைவிட்டு வெளியே வந்த பிறகு, 'இப்படி ஒரு ஆபரேஷன் நிஜத்தில் சாத்தியமா?’ என்று முட்டி மோதுகின்றன லாஜிக் சந்தேகங்கள். ஆனால், உள்ளே இருக்கும் வரை அப்படியான சந்தேகமே எழாத வகையில் பரபர திரைக்கதையால் அசரடிக்கிறது ஏ.ஆர்.முருகதாஸின் இயக்கம்.
http://www.vikatan.com/av/2012/11/mzniod/images/p9.jpg'விஜய் மிலிட்டரியா?’ என்று சந்தேகத்தோடே அமர்ந்தாலும், விறைப்பும் முறைப்புமாக கேரக் டருக்கு அட்டகாசமாக உயிர் கொடுத்து இருக்கி றார் விஜய். நிதானமாகப் பேசிக்கொண்டேதீவிர வாதியின்கைவிரல்களைவெட்டும்போதும், சின்ன கத்தியை வைத்து மொத்தப் பேரையும் வீழ்த்தும்போதும் அனல் பட்டாசு. பன்ச் வசனம் பேசாமல், அதே சமயம் மிகவும் ஸ்டைலாக அப்ளாஸ் அள்ளுகிறது விஜயின் மேனரிசங்கள்!
காஜல்... செம ஜில். ஆனால், கவர்ச்சிப் பாடல்களுக்கு மட்டுமே அழகி டெடிகேடட்!
விஜய்க்குச் சவால் கொடுக்கும் செம க்ளெவர் ப்ளஸ் டெரர் வில்லனாக வரும் வித்யுத் ஜம்வால், தீர்க்கமான பார்வையிலேயே மிரட்டுகிறார்.
காமெடிக்கு என வலிந்து திணிக்கப்பட்ட ஜெயராமைவிடவும் அதிரிபுதிரி காமெடிசெய் கிறது சத்யனின் கதாபாத்திரம். தன் மேல் அதிகாரிகளுக்குக்கூடத் தெரிவிக்காமல், விஜய் சொல்வதை அப்படியே கேட்டு அவர் நடப்பது செம சீரியஸ் காமெடி!
என்னதான் 'ஸ்லீப்பிங் செல்’களுக்கு தங்கள் தலைவர் யார் என்று தெரிந்து இருக்காவிட்டாலும், தங்களுக்கு உத்தரவிடுபவர் யார் என்று தெரியும்தானே... ஆனால், அதைக்கூட கேட்டுத் தெரிந்துகொள்ள ஆசைப்படாமல், அனைவரையும் சுட்டே சாகடிக்கிறார் விஜய்.
http://www.vikatan.com/av/2012/11/mzniod/images/p9a.jpg'கூகுள்... கூகுள்’ பாடலில் மட்டுமே ஈர்க்கிறது ஹாரிஸின் இசை. மும்பையின் அழுக்கு, அழகு இரண்டையும் ஃப்ரெஷ் லுக்கில் தருகிறது சந்தோஷ் சிவனின் ஒளிப்பதிவு.
பயங்கரவாதிகள் என்றால் அவர்கள் சிறுபான் மைச் சமூகத்தைச் சேர்ந்தவர்களாக மட்டுமே இருப்பார்கள் என்று சித்திரிக்கும் பொது புத்தி உச்சத்துக்குச் சென்று இருக்கிறது 'துப்பாக்கி’யில். அதிலும் சிறுபான்மையினர் குடும்பங்களும் பயங்கரவாதத்தை ஏற்றுக்கொள்வதாகக் காட்சிகள் அமைக்கப்பட்டு இருப்பது வேதனை.
லாஜிக் மேஜிக் பார்க்காவிட்டால், இந்த அளவு இம்ப்ரெஸ் செய்ய முடியும் என்றால், இப்படியான இன்னொரு விஜய் படத்துக்கு...
'வி ஆர் வெயிட்டிங்’!

Judging by what ARM had said of Sathyan's character, i guess he has got what he wanted. I guess it was largely intentional and except for the 'betermax' and couple of moments where he would be probing Vijay about the terrorist, Sathyan's character was never meant to be funny IMO.

Honest, one honest comment i have is, watching a movie like Thuppakki in theatres to watching at home first time, i guess makes a lot of difference.

But as you said, the movie is not without its flaws.

Its the first instance over decades which sees a Tamil movie releasing across 3 cities in South Africa. Make sure to catch Thuppakki if you are anywhere close to these locations.

Katrina, Sonakshi, Deepika up for Thuppakki remake?
Akshay Kumar's popularity among his leading ladies remains undiminished. For proof,try this. Three of his favourite co-stars Katrina Kaif, Sonakshi Sinha and Deepika Padukone have, in the words of someone close to the project, "shown varying degrees of interest" in doing the Hindi version of the Tamil Diwali blockbuster 'Thuppakki' which is currently ruling the box office.
Now, there could be two other reasons besides Akshay Kumar in these three lovely ladies' keen interest in doing Thuppakki . The film has broken all previous records in Tamil cinema, exceeding the collections of even the biggest Rajnikanth blockbusters. At the same time, this action-oriented film offers the leading lady a chance to play a boxer. We hear three of Akshay's leading ladies feel they're eminently qualified.
Says our source, "After the intense experience of doing Jab Tak Hai Jaan , Katrina is at themoment searching for something fun to do in her next project.The Thuppakki remake will give her that sense of unwinding. Besides she's been dying to do something with producer Vipul Shah and Akshay Kumar for the longest. She had a fabulous time working with them in Namaste London and since the Namaste London sequelis not happening immediately she is agreeable to taking on the challenge of doing the remake of Thuppakki ." Deepika Padukone may beat Katrina to it simply by default.
"She was offered the original Tamil film, but could not do it due to date issues. Now Deepika is the top contender for the boxer's role in Hindi, and mainly because she by nature an athleteand has been looking out for a sporty role," says our source.
We hear Kajal Aggarwal who plays the lead in the original Tamil film is not eligible for the remake. Says our source, "The cast will be completely different .Both Vipul and Akshay feel the remake should be completely different in look. Sonakshi Sinha has also expressed interest in the role." When contacted producer Vipul Shah completely cut down reports that Parineeti Chopra has been signed opposite Akshay. "It could be any of the ladies you've mentioned.We're very sure that the remake would have to be very different from the original. Vijay who stars in Thuppakki is a superstar in Tamil cinema.With Akshay the remake will acquire a larger appeal. So yes , the leading lady would be different from the Tamil film."
In fact Vipul's current blue-eyed boy Vidyut Jamwal who played the villain in Vipul's production Force would not encore his villainous role from Thuppakki. Asserts Vipul,"I will certainly not cast Vidyut as the villain. I am launching him as a hero in Commando . So the villain too would be played by a different actor in the remake. You see, the whole idea is to give the remake of Thuppakki a fresh look. Our director Murugadoss , Akshay and I will lock in on the heroine as soon as we know who can look convincing as a boxer."
One hears Deepika may just beat Katrina and Sonakshi to the role. Says the director A Murugadoss,"We'll decide who plays the leading lady once we all sit down to discuss the matter. The girl's character will change in Hindi. In the Tamil film she's a funny boxer. She has nothing to do with Mary Kom. In Hindi we will now take references from Mary Kom and give the character more gravity."

EXCLUSIVE 12 DAYS COLLECTION : THUPPAKI GROSSED 100 CRORES
The talk of the Tinsel town is whether Thuppakki grossed 100cr or not? We at cinemalead bring you an exclusive report on the box office report of Thuppakki till Saturday. These arethe approximated collection from various territories across the world.
Tamilnadu -66.5cr
Kerala-8cr
Karnataka 5cr
Andhra 10cr
Overseas 12 cr
So the overall gross of Thuppaki is around 101.5cr, which is really huge! The collections in overseas and neighbouring states are likely to end by Sunday. We are expecting around 15- 20 cr gross in Tamilnadu from Thuppakki's entire theatrical run. As of now the share of Thuppakki is around 80 crores and the overall share in its entire theatrical run is expected to be around 85-90 crores. Whereas Sivaji's gross is expected around 130crores (all time second, released in 2007) and its share is 90-95cr. So Thuppakki will be slightly lesser when compare to Sivaji's share and it is unlikely to match Sivaji's gross. Endhiran still stands No.1 in terms of both gross and share,Endhirans gross is expected to be 300 + crores and its share is 178 crores. Based upon our estimation Thuppakki is all time 3rd biggest movie in terms of both gross and share.
Note: Satellite rights are not added with the share and the figures are approximated since it is very difficult to get a transparent report for a Tamil film.

The Thuppakki remake will give her that sense of unwinding. Besides, she's been dying to do something with producer Vipul Shah and Akshay Kumar for the longest time. She had a fabulous time working with them in Namastey London and since the Namastey London sequel is not happening immediately, she is agreeable to taking on the challenge of doing the remake of Thuppakki."

Deepika Padukone may beat Katrina to it simply by default. "She was offered the original Tamil film, but could not do it due to date issues. Now Deepika is the top contender for the boxer's role in Hindi, and mainly because she by nature an athlete and has been looking out for a sporty role," says our source.

We hear Kajal Aggarwal who plays the lead in the original Tamil film is not eligible for the remake. Says our source, "The cast will be completely different. Both Vipul and Akshay feel the remake should be completely different in look. Sonakshi Sinha has also expressed interest in the role."

When contacted, producer Vipul Shah completely cut down reports that Parineeti Chopra has been signed opposite Akshay. "It could be any of the ladies you've mentioned. We're very sure that the remake would have to be very different from the original. Vijay, who stars in Thuppakki, is a superstar in Tamil cinema. With Akshay, the remake will acquire a larger appeal. So yes, the leading lady would be different from the Tamil film."

In fact, Vipul's current blue-eyed boy Vidyut Jamwal who played the villain in Vipul's production Force would not encore his villainous role from Thuppakki. Asserts Vipul, "I will certainly not cast Vidyut as the villain. I am launching him as a hero in Commando. So the villain too would be played by a different actor in the remake. You see, the whole idea is to give the remake of Thuppakki a fresh look. Our director Murugadoss, Akshay and I will lock in on the heroine as soon as we know who can look convincing as a boxer."

One hears Deepika may just beat Katrina and Sonakshi to the role. Says the director A. Murugadoss, "We'll decide who plays the leading lady once we all sit down to discuss the matter. The girl's character will change in Hindi. In the Tamil film, she's a funny boxer. She has nothing to do with Mary Kom. In Hindi, we will now take references from Mary Kom and give the character more gravity."

Watched Thuppakki 3rd time @Sathyam Cinemas today @ 11:15 a.m. show. Took my mom d dad along with Wifey d kid. Dad d mom in theatres after such a long time. Everyone loved the movie and my 1 year old son (his first movie in theatres) Surprisingly managed to stay awake for a long time, finally slept off during google google song. Awesome response from the houseful sunday crowd today. Thuppakki is rocking big time!!!!

Dhananjayan Govind: #Thuppakki is one of the top 3 biggest earner in Tamil cinema is the fact. We should celebrate that than keep debating about its collections

.Behindwoods : Thuppakki gets a surprise late viewer

By now, majority of film buffs ought to have seen Vijay’s Thuppakki and needless to say we expect the cast and crew of the film to have already seen the movie many times. But, lead actres...s Kajal Aggarwal took the time to see Thuppakki only recently.

She finally saw the movie in Hyderabad, Cinemax and found the movie to be very gripping. A majority of her social networking followers recommended Thuppakki to her as she was in the mood to see a movie after an early pack-up to her shooting duties.

She also took the opportunity to recommend this movie to her fans through her social networking page.

Right but Thuppakki in the top 3 is a proud moment for all of us to celebrate. Not only it is a fitting reply to all critics who have been calling for Vijay's blood for a long time, but it is also a sweet moment for all of us who kept our faith in Vijay. I am honestly sick of all the negativity the Vijay has been subjected to in the social networking space despite being a massive star in TN.

Other hero fans couldn't tolerate thupakki creating record in collection. Screaming n forcing critics to say their star's movie also crossed 100 cr :rotfl: . Komanam katra pasangala, keep crying :lol:

Lot's of facts have emerged post Thuppakki release especially after Industry ppl like Dananjayan have started interacting and offering a lot of insight about BO statistics. The very fact that Thuppakki has got a thunderous response triggered lot of panic moments for a lot of Vijay haters which has opened up lots of discussions with ppl like Sreedhar Pillai, which means a lot of industry facts have emerged.

Now Vijay's Thuppakki is a benchmark for future movies of his contemporaries. Vijay is the benchmark for all his contemporaries. Let their movies and BO collections speak for themselves!!!!

The best years of your star and some of his best movies haven't resulted in any top 5 performances. Speaks a lot about the BO value of these stars. No Surya movie is discussed in the top 5 or top 10 and seriously, you have no ground to stand.

Broken by next bb??? Are you real???????

Thuppakki, reliable industry sources say its in the all time top 3, next to some of Tamil Cinema's legacy movies such as Endiran, Dasa!!!!!

Only one man can do this Magic and he is 'VIJAY' ♥ Its not Something new for him.. From Ghilli Period he is known for creating new records and Thuppaki is one another great Example :) No surprise he is only the 2nd actor to join the elite 100cr Club in Tamil Cinema B-) An Proud moment for each and every Vijay fanatic :) Long way to go..

Tamil film 'Thuppakki' enters Rs 100 crore club

http://ibnlive.in.com/news/tamil-film-thuppakki-enters-rs-100-crore-club/307482-71.html

It's not just Bollywood films that are making their way into the elite Rs 100 crore club. AR Murugadoss's film 'Thuppakki' has not just become a blockbuster down South, but the film has also set the cash registers ringing at the box office. 'Thuppakki' has become the second Tamil film ever to enter the Rs 100 crore club.

The official page of 'Thuppakki' on Twitter confirmed the news, which was later retweeted by director AR Murugadoss, "Yes bullets, it is now officially confirmed that #Thuppakki has crossed the 100cr mark! It is only the second Tamil film ever to do so."

The film, which was released on Diwali, has turned out to be the biggest hit of 2012 by earning Rs 65.32 in the opening week. The film reached Rs 100 crore mark in just 11 days of its release.

Dasavatharam has crossed 200C.

[SoftSword]

orae confusions of india...

[ajaybaskar]

100 crore'eh cross panradhu kashtamgren. Idhula 200. Shabbaa..

[venkkiram]

Any AP movies crossed 100C so far? If yes, would like to know the movie names. Thanks.

[Roshan]

Just back after watching the movie at Satyam. Will do a detailed post later but my immediate reaction was 'it could have easily been much better' !

[venkkiram]

The problem with Dasa collection info is, its producer/director never so far openly share how much the movie collected.

[ajaybaskar]

Magadheera collected around 80 C and it is still running in one theatre.

[krajkumard123]

Roshan, same feeling first time, see it second time you ll have a totally different opinion

[venkkiram]

How the movie collections comparison works? If movie A collected 100C 10 years before, movie B collected 100C 5 years before and movie C collected 100C now, I could say movie A still in the top among B and C. If same rules applied, we may see lot of movies from older generations which collected in Lakhs when such targets were unreachable at those times.

[Saai]

100 crore'eh cross panradhu kashtamgren. Idhula 200. Shabbaa..


The producer of Dasavatharam reported a gross of over 200 crore in Times of India while the film was still running. Enough bo reports from dependable sources from have already been shared in hub during our discussions in the past for shivaji vs dasa collection discussions.

You can continue :-)

[SoftSword]

The problem with Dasa collection info is, its producer/director never so far openly share how much the movie collected.

i remember oscar ravi went ahead and mentioned it in some interview...
not sure wat the amt was.

[SoftSword]

in that case, how can responsible ppl like ARM give such statements??

[pushpak]

in that case, how can responsible ppl like ARM give such statements??
He said the 2nd movie to cross 100C - so he left Sivaji also !!

Just to set the records straight :

Dasavatharam collected over 100 crores within first two weeks. Oscar ravichandran's interview to economic times confirms it.

[ajaybaskar]

Gross = Number of tickets sold * Avg Ticket price

Gross - ET = Nett

From this nett, the theatre owners subtract their rent and forward the balance to the distributors. This is called DISTRIBUTOR's SHARE. And based on the agreed terms, the producer and distributor shares this amount. This amount along with the advance amount that the distributor had paid upfront to the producer covers the production cost and profits, if any.

[lolluparty]

Watched the movie 4 times still not yet bored but a small disappointment ie ARM had mentioned that he had given vijay very tough dance movements but i didnt find any such new or hard dance movements .. Thalaivar panna steps ellam its like a jujubi for him nothing is like challenging for him ... This is my view ... wat u feel guys???

Steps are not heavy to vijay , but it is heavy to compare with all ARM movies ; ARM compared with his movies not with vijay movies.:smokesmirk:

Because our numbers are not transparent like theirs.

[abhi_d]

Happy to see appreciation coming from all the corners.

Thuppakki's stupendous success will definitely ensure Vijay will take proper decisions (script/director selection) in future. Its OK to give masala movies like Velayudham once in a while (one in four) but variety is more important. I want him to do a full fledged negative role like Priyamudan, romantic movies like Sachien, Kushi, etc. If he is experimenting then its good to keep the movie budget low so that it recovers the production cost soon and not burn the producer/distributor hands.

I have been waiting for long time for a Vijay movie which is accepted by all. After Ghilli this movie has universal acceptance. Happy for Vijay and loyal Vijay fans who never lost faith in him and been his side during his worst phase.

All the best VIJAY.

[Saai]

Watched it...

A very decent entertainer. Never boring at any point of time. Director could have avoided some blatant loopholes and could have made it even more grippy. Murugadas is much better than his previous movies where he was spoon-feeding and beating abound the bush. Though Ramana is good (largely because of vijayakanth), his direction was hilarious at many scenes. Gajni - except flashback, that movie was a torture. Surprise package was Vijay. He was really good be it a comedy or action. The character warranted some sophistication and he carried it with ease. Much better than corny 'kiddo' types of Goutham vasudev menon. Music - Liked that Antarctica song. Apart from that so-so. All songs were picturised nicely. Even that opening song was really breezy picturization for an opening song. Cinematography obviously was good. Kajal, sathyan and jeyaram have played their role nicely.

Chennai Box-Office (Nov 23 to 25)

The Chennai box-office is booming. Vijay’s Thuppakki is creating new records. It has taken a distributor share of Rs 4.60 Crore in 13 days which is phenomenal by any yardstick.Thuppakki is the clear number one by a mile.

Watched it...

A very decent entertainer. Never boring at any point of time. Director could have avoided some blatant loopholes and could have made it even more grippy. Murugadas is much better than his previous movies where he was spoon-feeding and beating abound the bush. Though Ramana is good (largely because of vijayakanth), his direction was hilarious at many scenes. Gajni - except flashback, that movie was a torture. Surprise package was Vijay. He was really good be it a comedy or action. The character warranted some sophistication and he carried it with ease. Much better than corny 'kiddo' types of Goutham vasudev menon. Music - Liked that Antarctica song. Apart from that so-so. All songs were picturised nicely. Even that opening song was really breezy picturization for an opening song.

The whole movie is based on 4 sequences. The bus episode, sleeper cells termination, girls kidnap and the climax. All other scenes acts as buildups/platforms to these 4. Example: Without Kajal's unintentional help, Vijay wouldn't have boarded the bus.

And when was the last time we saw the hero and villain meeting only in the climax?
