Thalapathy Vijay crosses Rs 1900 crore globally post-COVID
Actor Thalapathy Vijay has crossed Rs 1900 crore in cumulative worldwide gross from his five post-COVID releases, despite his farewell film Jana Nayagan underperforming at the box office. The film earned Rs 326.2 crore in 30 days, taking his total post-pandemic collection to Rs 1908.95 crore.
His post-COVID journey began with Beast (Rs 218.69 crore), followed by Varisu (Rs 299.2 crore) and the Lokesh Kanagaraj-directed Leo, which became a phenomenon with Rs 606.42 crore. The Greatest Of All Time added Rs 458.44 crore, taking his pre-Jana Nayagan total to Rs 1582.75 crore.
The report notes that with stronger content and no online leak, Jana Nayagan had the potential to cross Rs 400 crore, giving Vijay a shot at the Rs 2000 crore mark. However, his total of Rs 1900 crore from just five films remains a notable achievement.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The milestone reflects how Vijay's stardom has translated into commercial scale in the post-pandemic market, where only a handful of Indian actors can consistently open films above Rs 200 crore worldwide. His next move after quitting acting will determine whether his brand value sustains in re-releases or OTT valuations. The real test is whether any future project can match Leo's Rs 606 crore peak without him on screen.
