Maharaja China box office: Nithilan Saminathan’s Vijay Sethupathi, Anurag Kashyap, Abhirami and Mamta Mohandas-starrer Maharaja was released in June to rave reviews in India. The film has now been released in China and earned ₹19.30 crore in two days, according to Sacnilk.com.

Maharaja box office China

Maharaja was released on 40,000 screens in China on November 29. The film earned ₹5.40 crore from its premieres. On its opening day, it made ₹4.60 crore, and it saw a spike in collection on day 2, bringing in ₹9.30 crore. The film’s total collection in China for two days stands at ₹19.30 crore. Maharaja is one of the highest-grossers in Tamil cinema this year, having made ₹125.38 crore worldwide. The film was made on an estimated budget of ₹20 crore.

According to PTI, Maharaja became the first Indian movie screened in China after both nations agreed to ease tensions along the LAC in Ladakh in a diplomatic move. In the past, Indian films like 3 Idiots, Dangal, Secret Superstar, Hindi Medium and Baahubali 2 did well at the Chinese box office.

About Maharaja

Vijay plays a soft-spoken barber called Maharaja who heads to the police station to file a complaint about his missing ‘Lakshmi’ - a dustbin. While he’s initially not taken seriously and brushed off by the police, his refusal to leave until they solve the case unravels something more sinister.

Jointly produced by The Route, Think Studios, and Passion Studios, Maharaja also stars Natarajan Subramaniam, Divyabharathi, Singampuli, Aruldoss, Munishkanth, Sachana Namidass, Manikandan and Bharathiraja.

With the film doing well in China, how much more it’ll earn remains to be seen. The Greatest of All Time, Amaran, Vettaiyan, Indian 2, and Raayan hold the top spots among the highest Tamil grossers this year.
