Parasakthi Box Office Collection Day 1 Worldwide Update: Sivakarthikeyan film garners mixed reviews; crosses Rs 11 crore mark in India

Parasakthi Box Office Collection Worldwide Day 1 Live Updates: Sivakarthikeyan-starrer grabbed many screens upon its release as the screens reserved for Jana Nayagan were also allotted to them. Despite the advantage, the movie only earned Rs 11.5 crore on Saturday.

Parasakthi Box Office Collection Day 1 Update: Sivakarthikeyan-starrer Parasakthi opened in theatres on Saturday to mixed reviews. According to Sacnilk, the film minted Rs 11.5 crore on Day 1.

The film suffered from uncertainty around its release, as it received CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) clearance only on Friday, with the board granting it a U/A certificate at the last minute.

Parasakthi, however, faced stiff competition from Prabhas’ The Raja Saab, which released in theatres on Friday. Despite receiving mixed reviews, The Raja Saab minted Rs 63.3 crore on its opening day. The film had already earned around Rs 10 crore during preview shows, which added to its opening day collections. In the Hindi market, Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar continues its strong dominance at the box office as even in its sixth week, the film managed to earn over Rs 3 crore on Friday.

Earlier, Vijay’s swansong Jana Nayagan was also scheduled to release on January 9. However, the film was postponed due to “unavoidable circumstances,” specifically issues related to obtaining the necessary certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) in India. This delay worked in Parasakthi’s favour. The film’s reported budget is around Rs 142 crore.

Parasakthi is directed by Sudha Kongara, who last helmed Akshay Kumar’s Sarfira, which turned out to be a failure at the box office. The film is produced by Dawn Pictures. Parasakthi also marks Sreeleela’s Tamil debut, while Ravi Mohan plays the role of the antagonist in the film. It also stars Atharvaa, along with Dev Ramnath, Prithvi Rajan, Guru Somasundaram, Basil Joseph, Papri Ghosh, and Rana Daggubati.

Parasakthi Movie Update: Fan calls out 'toxic narratives in an Indian film'

A fan @FilmiHindustani shared via X, "Traveled 10 km as an Indian cinema lover to watch a TAMIL film #parasakthi.. only to witness OPEN HATRED against HINDI, portrayed as if it were a foreign Invader's language, not part of India. Seeing such OUTDATED, toxic narratives in an Indian film today is honestly SHAMEFUL. Language-based 'sub-nationalism' is being weaponized by small-time local politicians to stay relevant.. and cinema is sadly becoming their loudspeaker. As an Indian, I take pride in every Indian language. But this film leaves no opportunity to target Hindi and appease Tamil-centric political narratives. Cinema should unite India, not spread linguistic poison. Dear #sudhakongara (Director), cinema is art.. not a language war manual. Take a chill pill, sister. Deeply disappointed."
