Total collections of Tamil Mersal were of the order of Rs 250 Cr. The Tamil version was released on October 18, but the Telugu version Adirindhi was released later due to various issues, including delay in getting censor clearance, and did badly at the box-office.
According to sources, Vijay's Adirindhi has incurred Rs 60 Cr loss. Despite lot of aniticipation and hype, the film's Telugu version turned out to be a disappointment for Vijay
