According to Box Office India, Master recorded an extraordinary opening day number in Tamil Nadu with collections in the range of 20-21 crore net which is the second-highest opening ever in Tamil Nadu behind 'Sarkar' which was released on a national holiday. 

The Hindi dubbed version of the film opens tomorrow which will get a bigger release across all circuits but it's not going to get the same response as the Tamil version, it is expected. Thalapathy Vijay is one of the highest-paid actors in Tamil cinema. 'Master' is written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. It features actor Vijay and Vijay Sethupathi in the lead roles.

The film also stars Malavika Mohanan, Shanthanu Bhagyaraj, Arjun Das, Andrea Jeremiah, and Ramya Subramanian amongst others.
