Suriya’s Scene is settling into its second week with a steady, if slightly softer, Day 8. The Jithu Madhavan directed action comedy, which opened on 6 November, added ₹6 crore net in India on Friday (13 November) across 4,049 shows. That is a mild 4% drop from Thursday’s ₹6.25 crore, but occupancy actually improved to 30.7% from the previous day’s 25.7%. India gross for the day stood at ₹6.95 crore.
After eight days the film’s India net total sits at ₹117.70 crore, with India gross at ₹136.70 crore. Overseas markets have contributed ₹74.50 crore, pushing the worldwide gross to ₹211.20 crore. Tamil continues to drive the bulk of the business (around ₹95.60 crore net so far), while the Telugu version has added roughly ₹22.10 crore.
Here’s the day-wise India net picture so far (gross in brackets where reported):
- Day 1 (Fri 6 Nov): ₹19.15 Cr (₹22.25 Cr) – 6,167 shows, 55% occupancy
- Day 2 (Sat 7 Nov): ₹20.35 Cr (₹23.65 Cr) – 5,687 shows, 62.5%
- Day 3 (Sun 8 Nov): ₹23.65 Cr (₹27.45 Cr) – 6,001 shows, 70.7%
- Day 4 (Mon 9 Nov): ₹21.40 Cr (₹24.85 Cr) – 5,801 shows, 65.9%
- Day 5 (Tue 10 Nov): ₹12.85 Cr (₹14.95 Cr) – 5,324 shows, 45%
- Day 6 (Wed 11 Nov): ₹8.05 Cr (₹9.35 Cr) – 5,294 shows, 30.9%
- Day 7 (Thu 12 Nov): ₹6.25 Cr (₹7.25 Cr) – 5,062 shows, 25.7%
- Day 8 (Fri 13 Nov): ₹6.00 Cr (₹6.95 Cr) – 4,049 shows, 30.7%
The opening weekend was strong, boosted by the festive window. Collections peaked on Sunday before the expected weekday taper. Even with the natural drop, the film has already recovered its reported production budget several times over. Estimates place the production cost in the ₹22–30 crore range (excluding the lead’s remuneration in some reports), making the current ₹211 crore worldwide haul a clear commercial win.
Shows have gradually reduced from the opening high of over 6,000, which is normal as the first week frenzy eases. The slight uptick in occupancy on Day 8 suggests audiences are still turning up, especially for the Tamil version. Trade will now watch the second weekend closely to see whether the hold continues or if the film gets a Saturday-Sunday lift.For a mid-budget entertainer that mixed action and comedy, Scene has delivered a solid first eight days and looks set to keep adding steadily in the weeks ahead.
