Immortal Posts Modest ₹4.51 Crore Opening Weekend in India

Positive audience word-of-mouth lifted Saturday and Sunday sales with weekday holds set to determine whether the film can build a longer run

Overview

The Tamil horror-romance Immortal opened on September 4 and finished its first weekend with a reported India net total of ₹4.51 crore and gross around ₹5.2–5.3 crore.
Daily receipts rose after a slow first day of about ₹1.25 crore to roughly ₹1.72 crore on Day 2 and a steady ₹1.66 crore on Day 3, according to box-office trackers.
Show counts and occupancy rose during the weekend, with coverage citing roughly 972 screens at release and about 1,018 shows by Sunday as evidence of growing audience interest.
Coverage credits positive word-of-mouth for the Saturday jump but notes that weekday collections will be the key test for whether the film can sustain box-office gains.
Analysts compare Immortal’s opening to Kayadu Lohar’s other 2026 releases and call it her lowest opening weekend this year, while also noting the film is a debut for director Mariyappan Chinna and relies on audience recommendation more than pre-release hype.
