Tamil horror comedy Aranmanai 4 continues its steady run, recording another sub-50 per cent weekly drop. The film grossed Rs. 6 crore in its fourth week, marking a 45 per cent decline from the third week.
After four weeks, the film’s total gross at the Indian box office stands at Rs. 76 crore, with final figures expected to surpass Rs. 80 crore.
Additionally, the film has grossed USD 2.35 million (approximately Rs. 19.50 crore) internationally, with over half of this amount coming from Malaysia. This brings the worldwide gross to Rs. 95.50 crore. Reaching the Rs. 100 crore milestone will be a close call. While the overseas run is nearly complete, domestic earnings should be able to push it just over the mark.
The box office collections of Aranmanai 4 at the Indian box office are as follows:
Week One – Rs. 37.75 crore
Week Two – Rs. 21.25 crore
Week Three – Rs. 11 crore
Week Four – Rs. 6 crore
Total – Rs. 76 crore
In Tamil Nadu, Aranmanai 4 has grossed Rs. 64 crore in four weeks, making it the highest-grossing film of the year, surpassing the Malayalam film Manjummel Boys. The film had a low start on its first day but picked up over the weekend and then sustained very well throughout the summer. It benefitted immensely from the lack of any notable competition in the last four weeks, which extended its run to this degree.
Remarkably, the film’s earnings in Tamil Nadu now exceed the combined total of the previous three films in the franchise. Adjusted for inflation as well, the film is the biggest HIT in franchise history as it is comfortably ahead of the 2014 release Aranamnai (Rs. 22 crore), which would adjust to Rs. 40 crore plus today.
The territorial breakdown for box office collections of Aranmanai 4 is as follows:

| AP/TS | Rs. 6.75 Cr. |
| Karnataka | Rs. 4.00 Cr. |
