Suriya starrer Vishwanath And Sons crosses Rs 73 crore in 6 days
Suriya's film Vishwanath And Sons has collected Rs 73.04 crore net in India in six days, according to Sacnilk. The film ran across 2,189 shows on Day 6 and earned Rs 74 lakh so far that day, with a 17.6% occupancy rate. The film's India gross stands at Rs 84.47 crore.
Koimoi reports that the film has grossed Rs 130.31 crore worldwide in five days, making it director Venky Atluri's highest-grossing film, surpassing Vaathi (Rs 116.2 crore). The film's overseas gross is Rs 45 crore. The Times of India notes the film opened with Rs 15.35 crore on Friday, grew to Rs 22.25 crore on Saturday, and has since seen weekday drops.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both sources report the box office as a success story, differing mainly in which milestone they foreground. The Times of India leads with the India net figure and tracks the weekday slowdown, framing the run as strong but facing expected drops. Koimoi leads with the worldwide gross and the director's record, omitting any mention of weekday decline or occupancy. A careful reader should note that while the film is doing well, weekday drops are normal and the real test will be the second weekend. Watch for whether the film crosses Rs 200 crore worldwide, which Koimoi says is on track.
