Controversial
Tamil
film
Draupathi,

Rishi
and
Sheela
Rajkumar,
is
breaking
records
at
the

office.
After
facing
many
controversies
even
before
its
release,
the
makers
of
the
film
finally
managed
to
release
Draupathi
on
February
28,
2020.
After
the
release,
the
Richard
Rishi-starrer
unexpectedly
made
solid
numbers
at
the
box
office.
Interestingly,
Mohan
G's
directorial
venture,
Draupathi's
final
box
office
verdict
has
come
out.
The
film
has
now
become
the
first
blockbuster
of
2020
in
Kollywood.
According
to
the
latest
numbers,
in
first
10
days,
Draupathi
collected
Rs
13.
90
crore
at
the
Tamil
Nadu
box
office.
In
the
first
week,

release,
it
witnessed
good
collections
in

Coming
back
to

film
has
