Passes Monday Test With Distinction
Following the strong Karuppu opening weekend, Karuppu continued its impressive run on Monday, passing the crucial Monday Test with distinction. The film recorded double-digit collections in Tamil Nadu — a clear indicator of strong word-of-mouth and sustained audience interest beyond the opening weekend.
The hold isn’t limited to Tamil Nadu alone. Karuppu is performing fantastically well in the Telugu states, Karnataka, and Kerala as well, indicating universal appeal across South Indian audiences. Such strong weekday holds typically signal long-term theatrical potential.
Now Suriya’s Highest Grosser
With Monday’s collections, Karuppu has officially become Suriya’s highest-grossing film ever, overtaking Singam 2, which had set the previous benchmark at ₹125 Cr. This milestone comes as a significant career achievement for the actor, reaffirming his box office pull in Tamil cinema.
Targeting the ₹250 Cr Club
Given the current momentum, Karuppu is all set to achieve ₹150 Cr gross in its first week itself. Trade analysts predict the film will comfortably cross the ₹200 Cr milestone and is now firmly targeting the prestigious ₹250 Cr+ club in its full theatrical run.
For Suriya, this represents a major commercial success, with Karuppu delivering both strong holds and record-breaking milestones.
