Retro Box Office Collection: Suriya’s Film Faces Decline Amidst Mixed Reviews
Suriya’s much-anticipated film ‘Retro’ has encountered a challenging trajectory at the box office. Despite a strong opening, the film’s collections have seen a significant decline, raising concerns about its performance in the coming weeks.
Day-Wise Box Office Collection
The film’s initial days showcased promising numbers, but the momentum waned as the days progressed:
- Day 1 (Thursday): ₹19.25 crore
- Day 2 (Friday): ₹7.75 crore
- Day 3 (Saturday): ₹8.00 crore
- Day 4 (Sunday): ₹8.15 crore
- Day 5 (Monday): ₹3.40 crore
- Day 6 (Tuesday): ₹2.50 crore
- Day 7 (Wednesday): ₹1.90 crore
- Day 8 (Thursday): ₹1.82 crore
- Day 9 (Friday): ₹1.37 crore
- Day 10 (Saturday): ₹0.61 crore
The total India net collection stands at approximately ₹54.75 crore, with the worldwide gross reaching around ₹81 crore.
Factors Influencing the Decline
Several elements have contributed to the film’s diminishing box office performance:
- Mixed Reviews: Critics and audiences have offered varied opinions, affecting word-of-mouth promotion.
- Competition: The release of other films has diverted audience attention.
- Occupancy Rates: While regions like Pondicherry and Dindigul showed higher occupancy, major cities reported lower engagement.
Prediction for the Upcoming Week
Given the current trend, ‘Retro’ may face challenges in maintaining its presence in theaters. Unless there is a significant shift in audience reception or strategic promotional efforts, the film’s collections are expected to continue declining. An OTT release might offer a platform for the film to reach a broader audience and recover some of its investments.
