As the festival of Pongal is considered to be a lucrative period in Kollywood, the family entertainer is expected to rake in wonders at the box office. Now, let’s see how it is performing in advance booking amid a clash with Thunivu.

For the unversed, Vijay and Ajith Kumar are locking horns during Pongal. Ajith is coming with his Thunivu. Both films are scheduled to release on 11th January. As both are among the biggest Tamil stars, the clash will undoubtedly be a high voltage. Both possess a hardcore loyal fan base, who flock to theatres no matter what.

Coming back to Varisu advance booking, the stardom of Thalapathy Vijay could be clearly seen as the film has earned 2.34 crores gross so far from ticket sales for day 1, reports Sacnilk.com.
