Suriya completes 2026 hat-trick as Scene crosses Rs1.45 billion worldwide; Jyotika thanks fans

Dubai witnessed the box-office triumph of Tamil action comedy "Scene" as it shattered the Rs1.45 billion (Rs145 crore) worldwide gross collection mark within merely three days of its theatrical release on November 6. Directed by Jithu Madhavan, the film featuring Suriya, Nazriya Nazim, and Naslen, hit the screens ahead of Diwali.

The production house announced this remarkable milestone on November 9, sharing a celebratory poster on social media, marking Suriya's third consecutive box-office success in 2026, following "Karuppu" and "Vishwanath & Sons." Overwhelmed by the audience response, Suriya and Jyotika, the film's leading lady, expressed their heartfelt gratitude in a joint Instagram post.

They thanked moviegoers for supporting the film across languages and borders, stating that the love and warmth they received meant the world to their team. Suriya added that the encouragement from the audience gave them the confidence to explore new creative horizons. Although the makers claimed a worldwide gross of over Rs1.45 billion, independent trade tracking figures from Sacnilk reported a lower estimate, underlining the strong opening weekend of "Scene" during the Diwali holiday period.
