Good Bad Ugly Movie Review

Strong Opening Day Performance

The film opened to a phenomenal response, earning Rs 29.25 crore on its first day. The lion’s share of this came from the Tamil version, which contributed Rs 28.15 crore, while the Telugu version added Rs 1.1 crore.

Day 2 Collections Hold Steady

On its second day (Friday), Good Bad Ugly collected around Rs 13.50 crore in India net, based on early estimates.

It recorded an overall Tamil occupancy of 50.64%, with night shows peaking at 73.91%. The Telugu version had a relatively modest 15.78% occupancy, showing limited traction in that market.

Star-Studded Cast

Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, Good Bad Ugly features an ensemble cast including Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Das, Rahul Dev, Yogi Babu, and Priya Prakash Varrier, alongside Ajith Kumar. With supporting performances from Tinnu Anand, Jackie Shroff, Sunil Varma, and Sayaji Shinde.
