Thunivu’s opening has been bigger than Vaarisu’s. The early figures of the film suggested that it would surpass Varisu by a huge margin.

Meanwhile, ‘Thunivu’ has become Ajith’s highest grosser after ‘Valimai’.
In the action packed film Thunivu, Ajith’s look as the ‘Boss Man’ steals the show. He has taken people hostage in a bank. Police is seen trying to identify him. But it is a mystery that slowly opens up. The action-packed film features Ajith sporting a white beard and white hair. Ajith Kumar plays a slightly negative character in the action thriller, and he impressed the fans with it.
