A Slow Burn That’s Catching Fire
Mandaadi opened modestly at Rs. 5.25 crore but didn’t fade the next day — it grew. That’s the kind of trend distributors love, especially when the film shares screen space with a bigger release like Sardaar 2, starring Karthi. While Sardaar 2 saw a steep 50% drop on Day 2, Mandaadi’s upward curve suggests strong word-of-mouth is doing the heavy lifting.
