In a way of denying all these reports, the official handle of popular theatre Ram Muthuram Cinemas which is located in Tirunelveli has posted a tweet. The tweet says that no one actually has the access to know the collection reports unless one has direct contact to every theatre owner.

Their tweet read as “Now Crores became common word from Fans to Trackers, getting accurate figure of any movie is NOT POSSIBLE. Only possible if the person has contact in each and every theatre of TN. Rather than that boost the Content of the film, that will drag people to watch the movie.”
