Weekend Box Office Verdict

Overall, the box office race is clearly being led by Karuppu, which stands far ahead with a massive Rs 66.04 crore worldwide gross. In comparison, Bhooth Bangla has emerged as the biggest long-run success story, comfortably crossing Rs 250.77 crore worldwide.

Behind these two clear leaders, Raja Shivaji continues to stay relevant with Rs 96.00 crore India gross. Its scale still remains well below the top performers despite strong periodic spikes like its 86.2% jump on Day 16. Patriot follows with a respectable Rs 79.66 crore worldwide gross, driven heavily by overseas contribution. Pati Patni Aur Woh Do and Aakhri Sawal lag significantly at Rs 13.70 crore and Rs 1.50 crore worldwide respectively. At the lower end, Dhurandhar 2 still shows long legs but adds comparatively modest daily gains of Rs 0.63 crore net on Day 59.

Overall, the clear verdict is a two-tier box office, Karuppu leading current momentum, Bhooth Bangla dominating lifetime scale, while the rest trail far behind with uneven growth and limited global impact.
