Speaking about the original Tamil version, the film registered an excellent occupancy of 76% in the morning shows. In the afternoon, it jumped further at a fantastic 84%. In the evening shows, there was a slight drop of up to 78%. While the occupancy for the night shows is yet to come, it learned that the film is going strong.
In the Telugu-dubbed version, Retro opened on a good note with an occupancy of 33% in the morning. In the afternoon shows, it went up to 45%. Evening shows were good at 38%. The Hindi version was poor with an overall occupancy of 8%.
With strong pre-sales of over 10 crore gross and the Labor Day holiday, Retro had a dominating show at ticket windows and as per day 1 early trends flowing in, it is heading for a collection of 20-22 crore net at the Indian box office. It’s a strong comeback for Suriya after the massive disaster of Kanguva.
With 20-22 crores in the kitty, Retro has registered the second biggest opening for the actor. Kanguva is at the top with 24 crore net.
