On its 10th day in theaters, Kanguva witnessed a slight boost in its box office performance, earning ₹1.10 crore. This brings the film’s total domestic net collection to ₹66.10 crore. The modest growth on Saturday is attributed to an improvement in audience turnout, with Tamil Nadu seeing an average occupancy rate of 20%, according to reports.
Despite the increase, Kanguva’s overall performance has been underwhelming given the scale of its production and star power. The film, led by a prominent cast, has struggled to maintain strong momentum after its opening week, facing challenges from mixed reviews and stiff competition.
While the Saturday jump is a positive sign, the film will need sustained growth in the coming days to stay relevant and recover its investment. The Tamil audience continues to provide a significant portion of its earnings, but broader appeal remains limited.
As the theatrical run progresses, Kanguva’s performance highlights the importance of word-of-mouth and consistent audience engagement for long-term success. Whether this weekend’s uptick translates into a stronger hold during its second week remains to be seen.
