Jiiva’s latest comedy, Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil, keeps pulling crowds on its fifth day after a strong Pongal opening. Released on January 15, the film saw growing collections over the weekend thanks to positive word-of-mouth and family appeal. Early estimates for day 5 point to a decent weekday hold, even as it faces typical Monday dips.
On day 4, the movie earned around ₹5.3 crore net in India, a slight drop from Saturday’s peak but still solid for a Sunday. This brings the total India net to about ₹15.15 crore so far. With good occupancy in morning shows across Tamil Nadu theaters, day 5 is looking at early figures of ₹2 crore net, showing the film’s legs amid competition.
Trends indicate sustained interest, especially in rural areas where the story resonates. If this continues, it could cross ₹20 crore net by the end of the week. Sources like trade trackers note higher footfall in key cities, boosted by Jiiva’s engaging performance.

Jiiva plays Jeevarathinam, a village leader caught in a messy family feud during a wedding. The cast includes Ilavarasu, Thambi Ramaiah, and Prathana Nathan, with Vishnu Vijay’s music adding lively vibes.
The story mixes humor with light drama, focusing on power struggles and old grudges in a rural setting. Viewers praise the simple plot, Jiiva’s timing, and relatable characters, calling it a good family watch. It’s seen as Jiiva’s comeback after a quiet phase.
