Vishwanath & Sons records Suriya’s 3rd-best day 1 advance bookings
The grand success of Karuppu brought Suriya back in the game, providing momentum for his latest release. It is worth noting that the Tamil drama isn’t a complete commercial entertainer, yet it has grossed 8.46 crore through day 1 advance bookings at the Indian box office. With this, the film registered the 3rd-best day 1 pre-sales in India for Suriya. Kanguva is at the top with 17.61 crore, followed by Retro’s 11.84 crore.
Region-wise breakdown of pre-sales
As expected, Tamil Nadu dominates Vishwanath And Sons‘ opening-day pre-sales, selling tickets worth 3.56 crore gross. It is followed by Telangana’s 2.03 crore gross. In Andhra Pradesh, it has sold tickets worth 1.32 crore gross. In total, the Telugu states alone have contributed 3.35 crore gross, which once again underscores Suriya’s strong fan base in the Telugu market.

Karnataka witnessed day 1 advance bookings of 86 Lakh, followed by Kerala’s 63 lakh. The rest of India contributed 5.8 lakh.
Grosses 14 crore+ through worldwide pre-sales
While 8.46 crore gross has come from India, the overseas market has contributed $590K (5.63 crore) through day 1 pre-sales. Overall, Vishwanath And Sons scored 14.09 crore gross at the worldwide box office through opening-day pre-sales. It’s a good number to begin the theatrical run, and if initial word-of-mouth is positive, the film has a shot at a 30 crore global opening.
