Such a proper theatrical release did give some push to the Hindi-dubbed version, Jan Neta, but since the overall buzz was low, day 1 collections turned out to be just fair. At the Indian box office, it registered Kollywood’s 8th biggest opening in Hindi, surpassing Rajinikanth’s Kaala. How much did Jan Neta earn at the Indian box office on day 1? The Tamil political thriller released yesterday (July 23) with a solid show count of 3,900+. Such a show count helped it mint fair numbers despite an average occupancy of just 11% throughout the day. As per Sacnilk, it scored 1.75 crore net on day 1, which is less than Vijay’s last release, The Greatest Of All Time (2.1 crore). It equals 2.06 crore gross. Registers …

One of the most successful and accomplished stars in the history of Indian cinema, Rajinikanth has ruled the silver screen for five decades. In his illustrious and unparalleled career, he has delivered not just earth-shattering successes but also massive failures, which have also played a key role in keeping him grounded. Yet, if one were to ask what his biggest debacle was, it’s highly doubtful that those familiar with Rajinikanth’s career would name any other title than Baba (2002).

The film, previously known only as Thalaivar 173, had its title and first look revealed on Wednesday at a launch event in Chennai.

While many fans praised Rajinikanth’s intensity in the new look, a significant section criticised the poster’s composition, with some describing the graphics and the way the head and body had been put together as underwhelming, and a few going as far as comparing it to fan made artwork rather than an official studio poster.
