Director Jithu Madhavan’s "Scene", starring Suriya, Naslen and Nazriya, has maintained strong momentum at the Kerala box office since its Friday release, recording an excellent performance even on its first Monday after the Diwali weekend.
On Day 4 (Monday), "Scene" collected approximately ₹2.70 crore to ₹2.75 crore in Kerala. Despite being a working day and facing strong competition from the simultaneous release of "Ramayana", the film managed to attract audiences and maintain a healthy number of shows.
With these collections, "Scene" has earned approximately ₹19 crore to ₹19.27 crore in Kerala within its first four days. It has outperformed his last two hits — "Karuppu" (₹13.07 crore) and "Vishwanath & Sons" (₹8.19 crore).
The film's performance is equally impressive nationwide. Its domestic gross has reached ₹98.05 crore, while its worldwide collection stands at an impressive ₹149.55 crore in just four days.
With its strong four-day collection, "Scene" has entered the list of the highest-grossing Tamil films during their opening four days in Kerala.
The current rankings are:
Jailer 2 (Rajinikanth) – ₹40.25 crore
Leo (Vijay) – ₹36.50 crore
Jailer (Rajinikanth) – ₹23.91 crore
The GOAT (Vijay) – ₹21.10 crore
Coolie (Rajinikanth) – ₹21.05 crore
Scene (Suriya) – ₹19.27 crore
Although "Scene" had a traditional Friday release, its strong daily collections have helped it compete with some of the biggest Tamil blockbusters in Kerala.
In just 96 hours, "Scene" has reportedly become the highest-grossing film of Suriya’s career in Kerala. Some box office trackers also estimate that the film has already recovered more than 76% of its Kerala box office target.
With strong audience support and sufficient time to build its collections, "Scene" appears well-positioned to reach its break-even target in Kerala.
"Scene" has already given Suriya his third consecutive 100-crore opening weekend hit worldwide within a single calendar year. With his third consecutive hit in Kerala, "Scene" marks a rare achievement for an actor from outside the Malayalam film industry.
In Tamil Nadu, "Scene" recorded a cumulative gross of ₹56.40 crore. On Day 4 (Monday) alone, the film generated a gross of ₹14.65 crore.
