On the ninth day, it added around ₹0.94 crore to its total, bringing the overall collection to nearly ₹39.89 crore across all languages as reported by Sacnilk. Despite a slight dip in numbers on day nine, the film's box office performance remains solid due to its compelling portrayal of a tribal community during the British colonial period and Vikram's large fanbase.
