Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil Box Office Collection Day 13 shows the Jiiva political satire earning between ₹31-50 lakhs on Tuesday, January 27, 2026. The film, which released during Pongal, has already crossed ₹33 crore worldwide and is officially a super-hit thanks to smart budgeting.
How This Small Film Became a Big Winner
The movie didn’t open with massive numbers, but it didn’t need to. With a budget of just ₹10 crore, every rupee earned adds to the profit. The Pongal holiday timing helped it find audiences during a festive weekend.
Here’s the Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil Box Office Collection Day 13 breakdown:
| Day | India Earnings | Key Moments |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | ₹1.30-1.50 Crore | Decent start for a mid-budget film |
| Days 2-4 | ₹13.35 Crore | Pongal weekend gave huge boost |
| Week 1 | ₹19.75 Crore | Solid first week total |
| Day 9 | ₹0.85 Crore | First big drop on working Friday |
| Day 10 | ₹1.55 Crore | Weekend brought crowds back |
| Day 11 | ₹2.10 Crore | Best Sunday of second week |
| Day 12 | ₹1.50 Crore | Held well on Monday |
| Day 13 | ₹0.31-0.50 Crore | Midweek slowdown |
| 13 Days | ₹26.02 Crore (Net) | ₹33.40 Cr worldwide gross |
The Pongal weekend (Days 2-4) made all the difference. The film earned over ₹13 crore in just three days, which is more than its entire budget. Everything after that is pure profit.

Why This Is Called a Super-Hit
When you spend ₹10 crore and earn ₹33 crore worldwide, you’ve got a winner. The film has already given producers over 150% return on investment. That’s the kind of profit percentage that makes everyone in the industry sit up and notice.
The Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil Box Office Collection Day 13 numbers prove you don’t need a ₹100 crore budget to succeed. Smart planning, good timing, and decent word of mouth can turn a small film into a profitable venture.
The political satire theme connected with Tamil audiences during the Pongal season. Jiiva’s performance got praised, and families found it entertaining enough to recommend to others. These factors helped it hold steady through the second week even as new releases arrived.
What’s Next for the Film
The movie will likely finish its theatrical run around ₹28-29 crore net in India, which translates to roughly ₹35-36 crore worldwide gross. That’s more than triple the budget—an excellent result by any standard.
Digital and satellite rights will bring in additional revenue, making this one of the most profitable Tamil films of early 2026. For Jiiva, it’s a much-needed comeback hit after a few quiet years.
