According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Parasakthi earned an estimated ₹49 lakh (₹0.49 crore) on Day 5. While early estimates from other sources suggested even lower figures around ₹12 lakh, the consensus remains that the film has suffered a massive drop of nearly 90% since Sunday.
The total 5-day India net collection now stands at approximately ₹28.64 crore.

|---|---|
| Weekend (Sat–Sun) | ₹22.60 Cr |
| Monday (Day 3) | ₹3.00 Cr |

Trade Analysis
Despite the lack of major Tamil competition following the postponement of Jana Nayagan, Parasakthi is struggling with an overall Tamil occupancy of just 13.57%.
Key factors for the decline include:
- Mixed Word-of-Mouth: While the 1960s setting and production scale were praised, audiences have critiqued the slow screenplay.
- Political Headwinds: Ongoing calls for a ban by political groups have reportedly impacted family footfalls.
- Multiplex Competition: Prabhas’ The Raja Saab continues to draw significant crowds across South India, further eating into Parasakthi’s market share.

With a reported budget of over ₹140 crore, the film is now critically dependent on a massive second-weekend surge to avoid being labeled a commercial disappointment.
