MUMBAI : After a bumper opening, it was expected that Thalapathy Vijay starrer Varisu and Ajith Kumar starrer Thunivu will show a drop at the box office, but the drop is huge. However, the numbers are in double digits and it is expected that over the weekend it will once again show a jump. 

Thalapathy Vijay starrer Varisu took a better opening at the box office and collected Rs. 26.70 crores on day one. The movie on day 2 has minted around Rs. 11.55 crore, taking the two days' total to Rs. 38.25 crores.

Ajith Kumar's Thunivu, which also stars Manju Warrior in the lead role, collected Rs. 24.40 crores at the box office on day 1. On day 2, it collected around Rs. 11.80 crores, taking the two-day collection to Rs. 36.20 crores. 

Both the movies have surprisingly done badly on the second day and over the weekend the film needs a huge jump at the box office. If the jump is not there over the weekend, the movies will flop at the box office.

Meanwhile, today, Varisu also releases in Hindi, and tomorrow it will be hitting the big screens in Telugu. So, let's wait and watch what response the movie will get at the box office in the Hindi and Telugu markets. Thalapathy Vijay's Beast and Master, both had not received a great response in Hindi. So, it will be interesting to see if Varisu Hindi will get the audiences to theatres.
