Kanguva BO Collection Day 7: Suriya Starrer Fails To Beat Indian 2 In Opening Week, Mints ₹62.40 Cr

Kanguva Box Office Collection: The Suriya starrer was expected to make history at the box office in the Tamil film industry. However, it couldn't manage to surpass the opening day collection of Vettaiyan and Indian 2 and raked in ₹24 crore at the box office in India with only ₹14.9 crore in Tamil language. Upon the day of the release the movie opened to positive reviews, but as the day passed it turned into negative reviews for multiple reasons. Audiences and critics criticised the loud BGM, called the plot weak and even pointed out some errors in Siva's direction.

All these reasons led to a major decline in the collection on the second day. The movie only saw growth on Sunday but again witnessed a sharp decline on the first Monday.

Kanguva opening week box office collection

Co-starring Bobby Deol and Disha Patani, the movie earned ₹2.40 crore at the box office in India on the seventh day of the release, early estimates reported by Sacnilk. This is the lowest from the past two days. Kanguva had an overall 13.72 per cent Tamil occupancy on Wednesday with the maximum reported in Puducherry. Adding the seven-day collection, the opening week total stands at ₹62.40 crore.

The movie, which was expected to earn over ₹80 crore in the opening week, could surpass the ₹60 crore mark at the box office.

Kanguva fails to beat Indian 2

When it comes to big stars of the Tamil industry, Kamal Haasan starrer India 2 is considered as one of the biggest dud at the box office in 2024. The movie, serving as a sequel to the hit 1996 movie Indian, was heavily criticised for its plot. While the movie did open at ₹25.6 crore at the box office in India, couldn't retain its pace and witnessed a fall in the collection since Day 2. Despite all the negativity around the movie, the political drama was able to rack in ₹70.4 core in the opening week. It seemed like the lowest-earning movie of the year, but Kanguva has beaten it. Suriya, who is also considered one of the biggest actors in the Tamil industry, racked in ₹62.40 crore despite earning mixed reviews.
