Chennai Box-Office: February 14 to 16

The Valentine Day in a way boosted ticket sales at Chennai Box-Office. On Friday, young couples flooded the theatres especially multiplexes, which helped the two Tamil youth-oriented releases – Naan Sirithal and Oh My Kadavule.

Hip Hop Adhi’s Naan Sirithal due to his personal popularity took a good opening and grossed Rs 1.15 Cr and is the clear number one. Though the rom-com with a message carries average audience report, it is collecting well.

The big surprise at number two is the rom-com Oh My Kadavule, which has brought romance back with a very impressive three day Valentine weekend gross of Rs 85 Lakhs. The film with upcoming stars like Ashok Selvan and Ritika got rave reviews and a cameo by Vijay Sethupathi helped it to get that opening.

In the third place is Vijay Deverakonda’s Telugu film World Famous Lover which carried mixed reports but average collections. And in the fourth place is the Oscar winner the South Korean film Parasite. At number five is Love Aaj Kal 2, which has not taken a good opening.
