Scene Heading Towards 200 Crore Mark
Suriya’s latest film Scene is continuing its impressive box office run, setting new career records within its first week. After registering the biggest opening day and opening weekend of his career, the film is now heading towards another milestone. In just six days, Scene has emerged as Suriya’s biggest first week grosser.
The film opened with around ₹40 crore worldwide on its first day. It went on to collect ₹125 crore during its opening weekend. Interestingly, Scene has achieved these numbers despite being made on a considerably smaller budget than some of Suriya’s bigger projects and relatively limited release compared to his previous outings due to competition from Ramayana in other states and Mookuthi Amman 2 in home state Tamil Nadu.
Scene has maintained its momentum even after the opening weekend. The film collected around ₹35 crore gross worldwide on Monday, followed by ₹20+ crore on Tuesday. This took its worldwide total to ₹180 crore, bringing it close to Karuppu’s reported first week collection of ₹185 crore.
On its sixth day, Scene is expected to cross the ₹185 crore mark and become Suriya’s biggest first week grosser. The next target is the ₹200 crore worldwide milestone, which could put the film closer to its reported break even requirement of over ₹200 crore gross. If the current box office trend continues, Scene could finish its opening week with a strong total and put itself in a favourable position for the coming days.
