The latest thing we hear is that the film has crossed Rajinikanth’s Kabali to become the highest-grossing Indian film ever in Malaysia. Keep reading to know more details about it!
Over the years, Tamil films have developed a big market in Malaysia. More than any other Kollywood star, our beloved Thalaiva has been dominating the territory single-handedly with his multiple films being among the highest-grossing Indian films there. At the top was his Kabali, which was released in 2016. That record is past now as PS 1 has dethroned it.
As shared by Malaysia Tickets’ Twitter handle, Ponniyin Selvan 1 has become the highest-grossing Indian film in 18 days. It has earned RM 16.59 million at the box office. It’s another feather in PS 1 team’s hat after becoming the top Kollywood grosser of 2022 and 2nd all-time Kollywood grosser at the worldwide box office.
