₹550+ Crores Target For A Remake Tamil Film?

Currently, one of the happening topics in Kollywood is none other than Thalapathy Vijay’s Jana Nayagan movie. Though the makers have kept it under wraps about the film’s story, it is nothing but an official (or unofficial) remake of Telugu superstar Balakrishna’s Bhagwant Kesari. Here’s the surprising target for the film at the Box Office, which is sort of shocking.

According to recent industry estimates, Jana Nayagan should achieve a massive box office target of over ₹550 crores globally to be considered a solid commercial success. For a remake, and one that isn’t a franchise sequel or part of an established cinematic universe, this target has left analysts scratching their heads.

Jana Nayagan stars Vijay, one of the biggest names in Tamil cinema, but the success of his films depends on the success of those projects in Telugu and other circuits as well. In the current scenario, as the film’s remake, it surely might not work at the Telugu box office. Also in Karnataka, the Telugu version is hugely watched and is being watched on OTT currently. These are the risk factors around Jana Nayagan at the moment.

The only factor that could come to Vijay’s Jana Nayagan’s rescue is that the makers and the hero also announced that it is Thalapathy’s last film. Only that factor might help rake up huge moolah!
