- Makers Dawn Pictures announced a ₹51 crore worldwide tally by day two, even as trade trackers flagged the pronounced weekday drop in India.
- The film was cleared by the CBFC only after 25 edits just hours before release, while Vijay’s Jana Nayagan was postponed over certification and court hurdles, leaving ‘Parasakthi’ with a near-solo frame.
- The Tamil Nadu Youth Congress demanded a ban for alleged historical distortions, including a fictionalised Indira Gandhi scene, and called for cuts and an apology.
- Producer-actor Dev Ramnath accused Vijay’s fans of coordinated negativity and ratings manipulation, as separate backlash from some Telugu speakers over the term “golty” fueled boycott calls online.
