'Thug Life' box office collection Day 6: Kamal Haasan starrer crosses Rs 40 crore mark; earns Rs 1.75 crore across all languages on Tuesday
Kamal Haasan 's film 'Thug Life', directed by Mani Ratnam , is nearing the end of its first week and is doing so on an impressive note. The film which has completed six days in theatres, earned around Rs 40.95 crore at the domestic box office across all languages, as per early estimates by Sacnilk. Thug Life was released on June 5, 2025, and brought together Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam after nearly 40 years. Their last film together was the iconic Nayakan in 1987. Despite the star-studded cast and high expectations, the Tamil gangster drama has seen a steady decline in box office collections after its strong opening day. Thug Life had a good start, earning Rs 15.5 crore on its first day across Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi versions. Out of this, Tamil Nadu alone contributed Rs 13.35 crore. On the second day, the film saw a big drop of around 54%, making Rs 7.15 crore. The weekend brought slight improvement, with Rs 7.75 crore on Saturday and Rs 6.5 crore on Sunday. On Monday, Thug Life saw a major fall in collections, earning just Rs 2.3 crore. Tuesday (Day 6) saw an even lower earning of Rs 1.75 crore, according to early estimates. The film's total collection over six days stands at Rs 40.95 crore, hinting at a challenging road ahead to maintain its theatrical run beyond the first week. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo 'Thug Life' was released in three languages—Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu. Among these, Tamil remained the top performer, while the Telugu and Hindi versions earned much less. The film follows the intense and emotional journey of Rangaraaya Sakthivel, a once-feared mafia boss in New Delhi. After being betrayed by those he trusted most—including his own brother and a foster son he raised as his own—Sakthivel sets out on a path of revenge and self-discovery. Spanning several decades, the story delves deep into themes of loyalty, power, betrayal, and redemption. While the film begins with high-stakes crime and conflict, it gradually shifts to a more reflective tone, exploring the inner turmoil of a man searching for peace in the shadows of his past. The film was shot across multiple locations, including Chennai, Pondicherry, New Delhi, and various parts of North India, adding rich visual variety to the storytelling. The music was composed by A. R. Rahman , who continued his long-standing collaboration with both Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam. The film's visuals were brought to life by cinematographer Ravi K. Chandran, while editing was handled by A. Sreekar Prasad . The high-octane action sequences were choreographed by the Anbariv duo, and the world of the film was meticulously crafted by production designer Sharmishta Roy.

Apart from Kamal Haasan, it includes Silambarasan TR, Trisha Krishnan , Aishwarya Lekshmi, Ashok Selvan, Abhirami, Joju George, Nassar, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Ali Fazal, among others.
