Retro Witnesses Dip In Second Day Collections

Suriya's film Retro, directed by Karthik Subbaraj and featuring Pooja Hegde, has opened to a strong start at the box office. The film earned ₹26.75 crore in its first two days in Tamil Nadu, with ₹19.25 crore on its opening day and ₹7.50 crore on its second day. Despite a promising start, the film saw a significant drop in its second-day collections, which may impact its overall box office performance.

The film's occupancy rates were strong in Tamil Nadu, with an average of 40.23% on opening day. However, the Telugu market saw a modest performance with 15.78% overall occupancy. With mixed reviews and poor word of mouth, Retro's box office prospects are uncertain. The film may collect around ₹75 crores by the end of the weekend, but it's unlikely to reach the ₹100 crore mark worldwide. Compared to Suriya's previous film Kanguva, which crossed ₹100 crore despite poor reviews, Retro's performance in other language markets is weak, implying a lesser final run.

The film features Suriya, Pooja Hegde, Jayaram, Nassar, and Prakash Raj. Despite a strong start, the film's poor word of mouth may impact its long-term box office prospects.

Retro has collected 33 Crores on its opening day whe 14 crores on its second day which takes the total to 47 crores worldwide. film's box office performance will be closely watched in the coming days. With a strong start but poor reviews, Retro's ability to sustain momentum will be crucial to its overall success. Industry experts are skeptical about the film's chances of crossing ₹100 crore worldwide.
