Suriya's Scene Loses Box Office Pace as Ramayana Surges Ahead
Reported by Kunal Bhatia (Senior Writer) · Hindustan Times - Entertainment ·
Suriya's latest action entertainer, Scene, is experiencing a sharp decline at the box office after a strong opening weekend. The Tamil film earned 63 crore rupees net domestically in its first weekend and added 21 crore rupees on Monday. Collections then fell by 40 percent on Tuesday and dropped another 37 percent on Wednesday, bringing Wednesday's domestic earnings to just over 8 crore rupees.
Box Office Numbers
The film's domestic total now stands at 105 crore rupees net, which is 122 crore rupees gross. Internationally, the movie earned 450,000 dollars on Wednesday, bringing its overseas total to 7 million dollars and its worldwide gross to 188 crore rupees. Despite the slowdown, the film remains ahead of Suriya's earlier 2026 releases, Karuppu and Viswanath and Sons.
Cast And Crew
In the film, Suriya stars as a cop named Inbaraaj, whose arrival causes erratic behavior among prison inmates. The movie features Nazriya Nazim in her return to Tamil cinema after 12 years and marks the Tamil debut of Naslen. The cast also includes Anandaraj, Lal, Rajpriyan, Suresh Mathiyalagan, and Gajaraj. Jithu Madhavan has written and directed the film, which is produced by Suriya and Jyothika's 2D Entertainment alongside Zhagaram Studios.
Context
Films often experience sharp mid-week box office drops when competing with major holiday releases or high-profile rival movies. Crossing the 200-crore mark will place Suriya in a rare group of actors with multiple high-grossing films in a single year.
