Parasakthi Faces Box Office Slowdown After Promising Opening Week
The much-anticipated Tamil film 'Parasakthi', starring Sivakarthikeyan and directed by Sudha Kongara, has entered a slower phase at the box office following an impressive opening and solid first week performance. Industry reports indicate the film's momentum has begun to wane, with day 24 collections dropping significantly to just over Rs 2 lakh.
Detailed Box Office Performance Analysis
According to data from trade analyst Sacnilk, the film's worldwide collection currently stands at Rs 84.8 crore. The breakdown reveals an Indian net collection of Rs 52.36 crore and an Indian gross figure of Rs 61.95 crore. Overseas markets have contributed Rs 22.85 crore to the total earnings.
These numbers clearly demonstrate that 'Parasakthi' opened with considerable strength, enjoying robust collections during its initial days. However, the film has struggled to maintain this energy in subsequent weeks, with the pace gradually declining after the first week's promising performance.
About the Film's Plot and Themes
Directed by Sudha Kongara, 'Parasakthi' centers around siblings Chezhiyan and Chinnadurai, portrayed by Sivakarthikeyan and Atharvaa respectively. The narrative follows their leadership of a student movement opposing the imposition of Hindi as an official language. The film powerfully depicts their resistance against government pressure while exploring themes of social anger and personal anguish.
Social Media Reactions and Audience Response
The film has generated mixed to positive reactions across social media platforms, with viewers expressing diverse opinions about its execution and impact.
One enthusiastic viewer on X (formerly Twitter) commented: "#Sivakarthikeyan acting performance very well. Sreeleela acting peaks. No boring scenes in the movie ticket worth watching film."
Another user offered a more critical perspective: "Despite an authentic period setup Parasakthi turns out to be a slow & tiring watch. A dull love track & sluggish narration dominate the first half. The second half drags even more with weak emotions & convenient writing. Good artwork & #SivaKartikeyan decent performance can’t save this boring film."
A third viewer provided balanced feedback: "SK Leads d show. Ravi scores. Atharvaa & Sreeleela Gud Perf. GVP’s BGM Super. Abrupt Edits lead to Emotional disconnect. Interval Block & Climax gud. Powerful Content; Very Convenient writing & Mediocre execution by Sudha Kongara. AVERAGE!"
