the re-release of Ajith Kumar’s iconic 2011 action-thriller Mankatha is proving to be one of the biggest success stories in Kollywood’s current re-release wave. Fans are flocking to theaters again, and the film has already crossed the ₹14–16 crore mark worldwide.
The re-release started strong in late January, with opening numbers that rivaled recent big re-releases like Ghilli and Padayappa. Even though exact “Day 15” daily figures are often grouped into weekly totals by trade trackers, the momentum has stayed solid—especially in Tamil Nadu single screens and urban multiplexes.
Mankatha Re-Release Box Office Collection Day 15

Mankatha Re-Release Box Office Collection Day 15 shows why Thala fans are celebrating. The film currently ranks as the 7th highest-grossing Indian re-release of all time, sitting comfortably behind Ghilli and Padayappa in the Tamil segment.
Ajith’s negative-shaded role, the stylish action, and that never-aging mass appeal are bringing old fans back and introducing the film to a new generation.
Trade circles are calling it a clear win for re-releases in 2026—proof that some classics never lose their shine.
