The Tamil star’s latest release has taken a strong start at the box office, crossing ₹ 100 crore worldwide in its opening weekend. It has been a bumper year for Suriya , and Scene is out here ensuring it ends with a bang too. Suriya has starred in three films this year, and all three have now achieved this feat, with Scene outpacing Vishwanath and Sons and being marginally behind Karuppu .
Suriya has already delivered two hits this year in Karuppu and Vishwanath and Sons. With its ₹ 116 crore opening weekend, Scene has already outpaced Vishwanath and Sons, which earned ₹ 108 crore in its opening weekend when it released earlier this year. Karuppu, the actor’s biggest hit yet, fared better, earning ₹ 121 crore worldwide in its first three days. However, with a massive day 4 poised for Scene on Monday, it will outpace both Karuppu and Vishwanath and Sons in the coming days.
The film has been doing decent business overseas, bringing in $4.7 million from the international markets in its first three days. The film’s worldwide haul now stands at ₹ 116 crore after three days. The upcoming holidays, post-Diwali, will likely boost Scene’s numbers, and the film should cross ₹ 200 crore before the week ends. The film also marks Nazriya Nazim’s return to Tamil cinema after 12 years.
In Scene, Suriya plays a cop named Inbaraaj, known for his swagger and attitude. Upon his arrival, the inmates of the prison behave erratically. He is forced to take on an investigation after his secret is exposed. Naslen makes his Tamil debut with the film. The film is written and directed by Jithu Madhavan, and produced by Suriya and Jyothika’s 2D Entertainment and the newly established Zhagaram Studios. Anandaraj, Lal, Rajpriyan, Suresh Mathiyalagan and Gajaraj also star in it.
