BY SACNILK
Chennai, June 5 - Suriya's latest action drama Karuppu has achieved a major milestone at the global box office by crossing the 300 crore gross mark worldwide. With this feat, the film has become only the 10th Tamil film in history to enter the prestigious club, further cementing Suriya's position among the biggest stars in Tamil cinema. Directed by RJ Balaji, the film has enjoyed a strong theatrical run across domestic and overseas markets since its release. Backed by positive word-of-mouth and solid occupancy in key territories, Karuppu continued to attract audiences well beyond its opening week, helping it surpass the significant 300 crore worldwide benchmark on its 22nd day.

The actor has delivered several critically acclaimed films over the years, but Karuppu now stands as his first 300-crore grosser, beating his previous record holder by more than 2x margin. This has also become the first Tamil film of the year to hit the triple century. The film's performance has been driven by strong collections in Tamil Nadu, where it has topped 150 crores gross collection, while also getting healthy contributions from the rest of India and a blockbuster overseas run. It is the ninth film ever to reach the 150 crore mark in Tamil Nadu, and the first for Suriya to do so.

Only a handful of titles have managed to reach the mark, with blockbuster franchises and star-driven spectacles dominating the list. By entering this club, Karuppu joins an elite group of Tamil blockbusters that have set new standards for the industry's global box office potential. With the film still running in theatres, it is interesting to see how much further Karuppu can climb. While the day-wise trend is slowing down, the film still seems to have some gas left before wrapping up its theatrical run with around 310-315 crores worldwide. For now, the film's entry into the ₹300 crore worldwide club stands as a remarkable achievement and another major victory for Tamil cinema on the global stage.
