Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil Box Office Collection Day 8: Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil continues its steady theatrical run at the Indian box office, even as collections slowed slightly after the festive Pongal period. Headlined by Jiiva, the Tamil entertainer earned an estimated ₹0.66 crore India net on Day 8 (Thursday), reflecting a predictable weekday dip following a strong opening week.
After eight days in cinemas, the film’s total India net collection stands at approximately ₹19.46 crore, while some trade trackers peg the figure in the ₹19.08–₹22.5 crore range, depending on final reconciliations. On the global front, Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil has already crossed ₹25 crore worldwide, with overseas markets contributing close to ₹2.8 crore, underlining its decent international traction.
Strong Weekend, Expected Weekday Fall
Released on January 15, 2026, the film opened to encouraging word-of-mouth, which translated into an impressive weekend surge. However, like most festival releases, collections witnessed a sharp fall once regular working days resumed. Despite this, the overall trend remains stable, and the movie is comfortably inching toward the ₹20 crore domestic milestone.
