Mandaadi Box Office Day 5: Soori’s Sports Drama Crosses Rs 51 Crore, Emerges as a Massive Hit

While most new releases this week are fighting an uphill battle, one film is doing the opposite — climbing steadily, day after day. Soori and Suhas’s sports action drama “Mandaadi” just crossed the Rs 50 crore mark, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

The film added a superb Rs 12.25 crore on Day 5, riding the holiday boost, and has now firmly established itself as a genuine hit rather than a one-weekend wonder.

Unlike most films that peak on Day 1, Mandaadi has grown steadily each day through the weekend — a rare and telling sign of strong word of mouth doing the heavy lifting.

Where the Money Is Coming From

Unsurprisingly, Tamil Nadu — the film’s home turf — accounts for the bulk of its earnings, but the spread across Telugu states and Karnataka suggests the sports drama’s appeal is traveling beyond its core market.

The film also stars Mahima Nambiar, Sathyaraj, and Krish Hassan, and is directed by Mathimaran Pugazhendhi.
