Maareesan Box Office Collection day 4: Actor Fahadh Faasil’s latest Tamil film is Maareesan, which also stars Vadivelu.

Maareesan is a 2025 Tamil film, starring actors Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu in lead roles, which released in theatres on July 25. The film, which has thriller drama vibes, approximately made Rs 0.75 crore on day 1. Maareesan also won positive reviews for its performances, and this helped the film, going into the weekend, raking in Rs 1.37 crore on day 2 and Rs 1.39 crore on day 3, as per Sacnilk. But the film’s fortunes changed for the worse with Maareesan settling in for Rs 0.32 crore at the box office, according to figures on Sacnilk.

The film’s total earnings for days at the box office stand at Rs 3.83 crore.

It remains to be seen how the film will perform in the coming days. There is no major Tamil release scheduled for the coming week, which could work in favour of Maareesan. The other big south film to hit theatres is the Telugu film Kingdom, starring Vijay Deverakonda. The next major Tamil release is Rajinikanth-starrer Coolie, set to hit theatres on August 14, 2025.
