How Much has Beast Collected in Tamil Nadu?
Beast is now the highest-grossing movie of the year in Kollywood. It is reported that the movie has grossed over Rs 112 crore in the state. Sun Pictures good promotions ensured the movie overcame the negative reviews, say trade trackers.

Will Beast Remain at Numero Uno Place?
With the date of its OTT release being announced on Wednesday, the closing collection of Vijay-starrer will be less than Rs 125 crore in its home territory. However, traders are now eagerly looking forward to see whether it will remain at the numero uno post in the list of top-grossing Tamil movies in 2022 as Yash's KGF 2 has breached into Rs 100-crore club on Tuesday.

KGF 2 business has improved week after week owing to positive word-of-mouth in Tamil Nadu. Even in its third week, the Yash-starrer is in 350+ screens after being released in 250 screens on April 14.

This is no small achievement as non-Tamil movies have rarely done well at the Tamil Nadu box office.
