Suriya-starrer Vishwanath And Sons collected approximately Rs 33 crore worldwide on its opening day, TrackTollywood reports, with India contributing around Rs 19 crore. The figure makes it the actor’s second-biggest opener, behind Kanguva’s reported Rs 40 crore. The film benefited from strong audience word-of-mouth despite modest advance bookings.

The Telugu states delivered a bigger opening than Tamil Nadu, according to 123telugu.com. TrackTollywood also reports that the film earned more than double Suriya’s previous release Karuppu in the Telugu market, while trailing it by about 50% in Tamil Nadu. Day 2 advance bookings were reported at Rs 11.3 crore, with Tamil Nadu slightly ahead of the Telugu market in bookings.
The easy story is that Telugu audiences have rescued a Tamil film, or that Suriya’s home market has rejected it. Neither conclusion is supported yet. Opening-day figures vary by trade source, and bookings can shift after reviews and walk-ins. The real test is whether Tamil Nadu closes its gap and whether the reported Rs 11.3 crore Day 2 advance converts into ticket sales across centres.
