Out of the total domestic box office earnings, ₹ 15.4 crore net came from Tamil shows, followed by ₹ 1.5 crore net from Telugu screenings and ₹ 10 lakh net - the least from Hindi shows.

Meanwhile, an overall occupancy rate of 34.63% was registered in Tamil for the IMAX 2D version. Film trade analyst Sumit Kadel gave Mani Ratnam directorial movie 'Thug Life' two-star rating and called the Gangster Film 'A HUGE LET DOWN.' In a post on X, he stated, The movie starts off with a bit of promise and some interesting moments, but it quickly loses steam and becomes dull. The first half is just about watchable because of the setup and a few engaging scenes. But after that, it completely falls apart…..The only good things here are a few moments in the first half, the high-quality production, and the beautiful visuals." He suggested that the Kollywood movie will perform well 'its main market - Tamil Nadu' but 'will be a Disaster in Hindi.' Alongside Kamal Haasan, the star cast features Trisha Krishnan, T.R. Silambarasan, Abhirami, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, and Mahesh Manjrekar in pivotal roles.

Bhool Chuk Maaf Twitter review: Rajkummar Rao's movie gets mix reactions
Bhool Chuk Maaf Twitter review: Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi-starrer Bhool Chuk Maaf has been released in theatres today, May 23. The film's road to release, however, was anything but smooth – marked by a series of last-minute hurdles and uncertainties. The movie was originally scheduled to release in theatres on May 10, but was postponed due to India and Pakistan conflict. The makers of Bhool Chuk Maaf, Maddock Films, were involved in a legal tussle with PVRINOX for backing the legal agreement to release the movie at the last moment. Due to the Indo-Pak tension after Operation Sindoor, Maddock Films announced that the movie is going to stream on OTT platforms directly. Resultantly, PVRINOX dragged them to the court and filed a lawsuit for breach of contract. The court ordered the release of the movie in theatres as agreed between the two parties earlier. Bhool Chuk Maaf: Twitter review After all the tussle, the movie is finally released in theatres and is garnering mixed reviews from both fans and critics. Some called the movie heartwarming, while others said it was 'unbearable'. Here's what people said about the movie on Twitter.
