For context, Vettaiyan’s overall collections stand at ₹249.5 crore. With its current successful run, Amaran could surpass Vettaiyan and claim the second position by next week. Currently the highest grossing Tamil film is Vijay's Thre Greatest of All Time.
Sivakarthikeyan’s gift to GV Prakash Kumar
While the performances of the lead actors received huge applause from audiences, it was GV Prakash Kumar’s musical composition that stole the show. Following the success of Amaran, Sivakarthikeyan gifted a luxurious watch to the composer as a token of appreciation. The composer shared a picture of the gift and wrote, “Thanks @Siva_Kartikeyan for the sweet gift for #Amaran success.”
Amaran has been receiving an overwhelming response upon its theatrical release and is now inches away from surpassing Rajinikanth’s multi-starrer Vettaiyan to secure the second spot among the highest-grossing Tamil films of the year.
Netflix has acquired the OTT rights to the film, which is expected to hit the digital platform by the end of November or the first week of December.
