The crime drama Thug Life, starring Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan, and directed by Mani Ratnam, had a decent start at the Indian box office.

According to a report by Sacnilk, Thug Life collected a total of Rs 23 crore in two days in India. The film had a Tamil occupancy of 31.41% on Friday, with the highest footfall of 45.99% during night shows and the lowest of 20.01% in the morning. On the other hand, Sajid Nadiadwala’s Housefull 5 has kickstarted its theatrical run with a thunderous response, raking in Rs 24.35 crore on Day 1.

Thug Life was promoted in the North as well, but it failed to impress audiences there. The Hindi version earned only Rs 65 lakh on its first day, showing that the film has a tough road ahead.
