Scene box office update

Scene had a solid start to its box-office run as it released two days before Diwali. It braved competition from Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, and collected ₹19.15 crore on its first day of release. The next day, the film saw some growth and earned ₹20.35 crore. Sunday saw more growth and the film collected ₹23.65 crore, its highest single-day haul so far. On Monday the film showed great pull too, earning ₹21.40 crore. The film crossed the ₹100 crore mark on Wednesday.

The latest update from Sacnilk states that the film has managed to collect ₹6.10 crore, its lowest single-day haul yet. This takes the total box office collection to ₹111.55 crore after seven days of release. The majority of the earnings have come from the original Tamil version, as the film collected ₹4.50 crore from the 3,641 shows in the language and ₹1.60 crore from the Telugu version. All eyes are on how the film performs on the second weekend and whether it manages to show growth and cross the ₹150 crore mark by Sunday.

All about Scene

In Scene, Suriya plays Inbaraaj, a police officer whose swagger and attitude make him stand out. His arrival at the prison leaves the inmates behaving unusually. However, things take an unexpected turn when a secret about him comes to light, forcing him to take up an investigation. The investigation takes Inbaraj back to an old case that bears a striking resemblance to a series of murders he had previously solved, involving a killer known as the 'perfume killer'. The film also marks Nazriya Nazim's return to Tamil cinema after 12 years, while Naslen makes his Tamil debut.

At the recently held press meet, Jithu confirmed that Romancham 2 is the only sequel he has officially announced and dispelled rumours of a sequel to Scene. Romancham was his debut as a director, which released in 2023. He said, “I have only announced the Romancham 2 sequel. Aavesham 2 and Scene 2 are just assumptions. I haven't announced them.”
