Maharaja Box Office Collection Day 18 Update
Maharaja, starring Vijay Sethupathi and Anurag Kashyap, did well in cinemas by outperforming estimates. The movie opened as a blockbuster; it was the highest-grossing Tamil movie of week one in 2024.
Early estimates for Maharaja’s 18th day, which is today, July 1st, 2024, show a slight drop in collection. The film is estimated to have made around ₹0.40 crore net in India for all languages. Occupancy also dipped to around 16.16% for Tamil on Monday.
This is likely due to a combination of factors, such as the typical Monday drop and competition from the blockbuster “Kalki 2898 AD.” Despite the lower numbers, Maharaja has already achieved a strong performance overall, exceeding ₹66 crore net in India and ₹100 crore worldwide.
