Saripodhaa Sanivaaram Box Office
On its 9th day, September 6, 2024, which was the film’s second Friday, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram experienced a minor dip in earnings compared to the previous day. The film earned ₹1.08 crore on this day, following a collection of ₹1.55 crore on September 5. Despite this slight decline, the film continues to draw audiences, maintaining a steady revenue stream. With its worldwide gross reaching ₹73.25 crore, including ₹23 crore from international markets, the film has achieved a notable milestone by becoming Nani’s highest-grossing film in North America.
Performance Comparison with Hi Nanna
In its 9-day run, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram has collected ₹44.13 crore, coming close to surpassing the earnings of Nani’s previous release, Hi Nanna. The latter had earned ₹49.22 crore over its lifetime. This close performance underscores the success of Saripodhaa Sanivaaram and its strong reception among audiences. The film’s ability to compete closely with Hi Nanna highlights its popularity and suggests that it has resonated well with viewers.
Budget and Financial Outlook
Produced with a budget of ₹90 crore, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram has currently recovered only 49% of its production costs, with a net collection of ₹44.13 crore. This indicates that the film still has a way to go before it can break even and become profitable. In comparison, Nani’s previous film, Hi Nanna, which had a budget of ₹60-65 crore, also faced challenges in breaking even. While the film has yet to reach the profit zone, its steady performance at the box office provides a hopeful outlook for a positive financial outcome as its run continues.
