Until September 20th, Superstar Rajinikanth’s Petta held the record for the top opener of the year in the UAE belt. However, Suriya – Mohanlal’s Kaappaan has now taken up that spot, becoming the highest day 1 grosser in the country.
This in turn indicates that the idea of having two big stars from the Tamil and Malayalam industry in Suriya and Mohanlal has worked out wonders for the team, resulting in the big number. Kaappaan is holding on well in TN over the weekend, with increased collections expected for Sunday too.
