Actor Sivakarthikeyan continues his impressive rise in the overseas market with yet another major milestone. His latest film Parasakthi has registered a hat-trick of $1 Million openings in overseas territories, reaffirming the actor’s growing global appeal and consistent box-office pull beyond India.
Released worldwide on January 10, Parasakthi hit theatres amid high expectations, and the film has lived up to the buzz with a strong opening weekend. Directed by Sudha Kongara, the film opened to positive word of mouth, especially for its engaging narrative, emotional depth, and powerful performances. The encouraging audience response has translated into solid occupancy across key overseas markets such as the USA, UK, Australia, and the Middle East.
This achievement marks Sivakarthikeyan’s third consecutive film to cross the $1 Million mark in overseas opening collections, a rare and commendable feat for a contemporary Tamil star. It highlights his steady transformation from a domestic crowd-puller to an actor with reliable international market strength. Trade analysts believe that Sivakarthikeyan’s careful script selection and genre diversity have played a key role in expanding his fan base globally.
Parasakthi pairs Sivakarthikeyan with Sreeleela, who plays the female lead. Her performance has been widely appreciated for adding freshness and emotional balance to the story. A major highlight of the film is Ravi Mohan, who appears in a powerful antagonist role. His intense screen presence and layered portrayal have been singled out by audiences as one of the film’s strongest assets.
Director Sudha Kongara, known for extracting compelling performances and handling socially rooted themes with commercial sensibility, once again proves her mettle. Her storytelling, combined with strong technical values and impactful writing, has resonated well with both critics and moviegoers.
With positive momentum, Parasakthi is expected to show strong legs at the box office in the coming days, both overseas and domestically. The film’s successful opening further cements Sivakarthikeyan’s position as one of Tamil cinema’s most bankable stars and sets the stage for even bigger global openings in his future projects.
