Suriya and Trisha’s newly released legal action spectacle, ‘Karuppu’, is turning out to be an absolute juggernaut at the regional box office.
In just three days of its theatrical run, the RJ Balaji directorial has comfortably crossed the Rs 60 crore gross mark in its home state of Tamil Nadu alone.
This phenomenal opening has set the film on a clear, high-speed trajectory toward breaching the coveted Rs100 crore milestone within the state, which would mark Suriya’s first-ever movie to achieve this historic local box office record.
Bankrolled by Dream Warrior Pictures, the film’s success is being fueled by an incredible ticket-buying spree, with over 1.5 million tickets sold on BookMyShow within the first 48 hours.
Audiences have responded massively to the gripping courtroom drama mixed with intense rural action. Supported by Sai Abhyankkar’s viral musical score, the movie is maximizing its extended five-show-a-day permissions granted by the government, completely dominating the mid-May theatrical window.
