Undeniably,
we
are
living
in
a
time
which
witnesses
the
release
of
a
Tamil
movie
almost
every
week.
This
never
seen
before
frequency
has
redefined
the
way
we
look
at
box
office
collections,
making
the
term
'weekend
opening'
ever
so
important.
2015
was
no
different
as
many
big
budget
flicks
relied
heavily
on
its
respective
opening,
which
subsequently
played
an
important
role
in
deciding
the
film's
box
office
fate.
Also,
one
prominent
factor
that
helps
these
movies
mint
money
in
just
3-4
days
is
their
overseas
screenings.
Kollywood
movies
are
crossing
the
boundaries
like
never
before
and
hence
their
overseas
weekend
collections
has
to
be
taken
into
consideration.
Speaking
about
box
office
performances
of
Tamil
movies
in
foreign
nations,
Vikram's
I
stands
tall
this
year
as
the
revenge
drama
minted
30
Crore
rupees
from
its
5
day
opening
weekend
(overseas
alone).
Thala
Ajith's
Yennai
Arindhaal
stands
second
in
this
particular
list
as
the
movie
managed
to
collect
19
Crore
rupees
from
all
foreign
nations
combined.
Yennai
Arindhaal
though
had
a
4
day
opening
weekend.
Ilayathalapathy
Vijay's
Puli
has
amassed
16.5
Crore
rupees
(approx)
from
the
overseas
box
office.
This
too
cashed
in
on
its
4
day
opening
weekend.
When
we
take
into
account
the
worldwide
gross
(opening
weekend),
there
are
no
changes
in
the
standings
as
I,
Yennai
Arindhaal
and
Puli
take
the
first
three
positions
for
best
Tamil
openers
in
2015.
