The movie made on Kalki’s novel holds a whole lot of sentimental worth for Tamil viewers and the collections of the movie are very lopsided too, with most of its takings coming from the Tamil model. The movie did extraordinarily properly in Tamil Nadu because it secured the third highest ticketing day for a Tamil movie in Tamil Nadu this 12 months, solely behind two star movies Beast and Valimai. The pre-bookings of the movie are stable, indicating a robust run forward. 

The Hindi model of Ponniyin Selvan Half 1 carried out decently on day 1 with collections within the neighborhood of Rs. 1.6 – 2 cr nett. The numbers are fairly good for a dubbed movie with restricted promotions.
