Dhanush’s Captain Miller has finally reached the big screen. The period action drama has been one of the most anticipated movies of the Tamil star. It faced a few delays, but the movie hit the theaters with a bang.
Captain Miller is receiving a positive response from the audience, as the actor’s fans are thrilled to see him in a new light. However, it is the box office that decides whether a film is a hit or a flop. The predictions for Dhanush’s film’s opening day are out now.
Captain Miller is set against the backdrop of Bitish-ruled India. The period drama follows the story of a former British soldier, played by Dhanush. He has to safeguard the hidden treasure of his village from the British government. Moreover, he has to protect his fellow villagers from the cruelty of the British army.
Captain Miller’s box office collection prediction
Captain Miller has been receiving a fairly positive response from the audience. Therefore, tracking the movie’s box office collection would be interesting. According to Sacnilk, the film is expected to mint about $964.7K net in India across all languages. The film has been released in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi. The film allegedly had a Tamil occupancy of 40.49% on its opening day, January 12, 2024.
This seems a fairly good amount for a movie’s opening, especially during the busiest time of the year in Tamil cinema. Dhanush’s Captain Miller is facing tough competition from Sivakarthikeyan’s Ayalaan and Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi’s Merry Christmas. However, the numbers have not been finalized yet.
Arun Matheswaran has helmed Captain Miller, while Sathya Jyothi Films bankrolled it. The movie was earlier scheduled for December 2023, but it was later postponed to January 2024. Priyanka Arul Mohan, Sundeep Kishan, Edward Sonnenblick, and Shivarajkumar played key roles in the film.
