Although the India net earnings have surpassed Thunivu movie's earnings to cement Good Bad Ugly's rank as Ajith's top grossing movie since COVID, the day wise collections present a grim scenario.

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Ajith Kumar's movie managed to earn only ₹4.86 crore on Good Friday, April 18.

Good Bad Ugly movie's earnings on Good Friday are staggeringly low as compared to what the movie minted on previous days. On Day 5, the movie collected a whopping ₹15 crore, while on Day 6, Good Bad Ugly's earnings totalled to ₹7 crore.

Good Bad Ugly gets legal notice

Good Bad Ugly managed to steer clear of controversy for the first six days after its release. However, the movie recently came under legal scrutiny as renowned music composer Ilayaraja sent a legal notice to the filmmakers, Mythri Movie Makers, for allegedly using his songs without obtaining proper permission.

According to reports, Ilayaraja has demanded ₹5 crore as compensation for the unauthorized use of his work.

Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, Good Bad Ugly features Ajith Kumar and Trisha Krishnan in the lead roles. The film also boasts a strong supporting cast, including Arjun Das, Rahul Dev, Yogi Babu, Priya Prakash Varrier, Jackie Shroff, and Sayaji Shinde in pivotal roles.

Released just a few months after Ajith’s previous film Vidaamuyarchi, which underperformed at the box office, Good Bad Ugly has marked a strong comeback, cementing Ajith's dominance in the industry.
