Chennai: Actor Sivakarthikeyan's Tamil comedy Rajini Murugan, which released after months of delay on Makar Sankranti last week, has emerged as the industry's first blockbuster of the year.
"In the opening weekend, the film raked in over Rs 20 crore worldwide. It's the biggest opening for Sivakarthikeyan in his career so far. Despite the onslaught of the three other big releases, Rajini Murugan emerged successful," trade analyst Trinath told IANS.
