Jana Nayagan had a good 4-day extended opening weekend at the Indian box office of close to 125 crore net. However, given the mixed-to-poor word of mouth, a big Monday drop was always on the cards, and that’s exactly what happened. Thalapathy Vijay’s stardom did the heavy lifting over the weekend, but on Monday, strong footfall from the neutral audience was needed, which didn’t happen. As a result, the film crashed on its day 5, showing a drop of above 70% from the opening day. Keep reading for a detailed collection report!
