Box Office Performance & Impact

Master was released in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when theaters had been shut for nearly a year. Despite restrictions and 50% occupancy in several Indian states, the film opened to a massive ₹50 crore worldwide on its first day. At a time when the Tamil film industry was struggling, Master brought relief to Tamil Nadu theater owners, reviving the cinema business in the state.

The film grossed ₹237 crore globally, making it one of the biggest hits of the year. Given its strong opening and audience response, trade analysts believed that without the pandemic, Master could have easily crossed ₹400 crore at the box office.

Music & Songs’ Impact

Anirudh Ravichander’s music was a major highlight of the film, with the songs becoming instant chartbusters. Tracks like “Vaathi Coming”, “Master Theme” and “Kutty Story” ruled the charts in South India and became viral sensations. His energetic background score also elevated the action sequences, making the film even more engaging.

Master remains one of Thalapathy Vijay’s biggest hits and played a crucial role in reviving the theatrical industry after the pandemic. The film’s success reinforced Lokesh Kanagaraj’s reputation as a top-tier director and set the stage for his future collaborations with Vijay.
