Karuppu Box Office: Suriya starrer emerges HIT recording strong growth on day two in India
Karuppu is the first HIT film for Suriya since Singam II in 2013.
Tamil film Karuppu has emerged as a HIT, with the film showing strong growth in business on its second day. Through the matinee shows, the film is running around 60 per cent ahead of its first day. The final growth may not remain that high, as the evening and night shows were already operating at strong occupancies yesterday, leaving comparatively less room for growth. Even so, the film is comfortably headed past the Rs. 20 crore mark and could potentially finish closer to Rs. 25 crore, which would place it around 25-35 per cent higher than its opening day.
The film gave indications of being a HIT yesterday itself, from the way the collections picked up during the day and advances for the second day were superb. Still, it is always better to wait for confirmation, and that confirmation has now arrived with the growth today. Karuppu is certainly a HIT, with the potential to go on to become a SUPER HIT or even a BLOCKBUSTER, depending on how strongly it holds through the weekdays.
Karuppu is the first HIT film for Suriya since Singam II in 2013. The superstar was at the peak of his career during the early 2010s, delivering several major grossers on the go. However, the years that followed saw him endure a prolonged rough patch at the box office. Some of his films opened promisingly but failed to sustain due to poor reception, while others that found audience appreciation could not generate a strong initial start. Unfortunately, two of his best-received films didn’t get a theatrical release and were released digitally during COVID. For the first time in a long while, things have fallen into place together, and it's finally the long-awaited hit that had eluded the superstar for years.
