Word Count: 357 | Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes

Thug Life box office prediction day 1: Thug Life, starring Kamal Haasan, hit the screens on June 5 much to the delight of fans. The gangster drama has created a buzz in the industry as it marks the veteran actor’s first collaboration with Mani Ratnam after Nayagan (1987). This is set to help it open to a strong response at the domestic box office.

Thug Life set to open well in India

Kamal Haasan, who suffered a setback when Indian 2 bombed at the box office, is back in the limelight because of his latest release Thug Life. According to Ramesh Bala, a trade analyst, the film is expected to open well at the box office. He feels that the day 1 figure will be around Rs 45 crore.

“Thug Life has created a good buzz. It features a successful combination. Moreover, AR Rahman is the music composer. The day 1 gross in India should be around Rs 45 crore,” he told Indiatimes.

If this happens, Thug Life will outperform Indian 2. The Shankar-directed vigilante thriller had earned nearly Rs 26 crore in the country on its first day. The film went on to make Rs 100 crore in its full run and ended up being a massive flop.

Has Thug Life released in Karnataka?

Thug Life has not been released in Karnataka, an important market for Tamil film, due to the controversy surrounding Kamal Haasan’s ‘Kannada was born from Tamil’ remark. On May 27, while speaking at the audio launch of the gangster drama, he reflected on his bond with Sandalwood star Shivarajkumar. During the speech, he said that Kannada originated from Tamil. This upset pro-Kannada activists, leading to a ban on the film in the state. Kamal was earlier asked to apologise for the comment but he refused to do so.
