Suriya's new action drama, Karuppu, is creating significant buzz at the Indian box office, particularly with its Day 2 advance bookings. Initially affected by an eleventh-hour release delay, the film's pre-sales in Tamil Nadu for the opening day were 82 lakh. However, positive reviews have driven a remarkable turnaround.
By Day 2, advance bookings in Tamil Nadu soared to 6.93 crore, reflecting a staggering 745.12% increase. This impressive growth is attributed to strong audience demand fueled by positive word-of-mouth. The increased show counts further enhance its potential for blockbuster performance.
Karuppu is now on track to potentially achieve Suriya's first 20 crore single-day gross in Tamil Nadu. The film carries a budget of 130 crore and requires a net earning of an equal amount to be considered a clean success, a target deemed achievable given its current momentum and audience reception.
Directed by RJ Balaji, the cast includes Trisha Krishnan and RJ Balaji. Produced by Dream Warrior Pictures, the music is by Sai Abhyankkar. The film was released in Tamil and Telugu.
