Singam 2 Joins the ₹100 Crore Club Worldwide
Back in 2013, Suriya’s action-packed blockbuster Singam 2 roared at the global box office, becoming one of the biggest Kollywood hits of its time. Directed by Hari, the high-octane sequel to Singam opened to phenomenal collections across Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, and the Telugu-speaking states. The film released on more than 2,400 screens worldwide, pulling in around ₹8.15 crore on its opening day in India. Its gripping storyline, mass appeal, and Suriya’s power-packed performance helped it attract audiences beyond South India, with overseas markets contributing significantly to its early success. Within its first weekend, Singam 2 grossed over ₹50 crore worldwide, a remarkable feat for a Tamil film a decade ago.
The strong word of mouth, repeat audience turnout, and Suriya’s massive fan following ensured the film’s steady run at the box office. Ultimately, Singam 2 stormed past the ₹100 crore milestone, closing with a lifetime collection of around ₹130 crore worldwide. This achievement cemented its place as one of the highest-grossing Tamil films of 2013, further strengthening the popularity of the Singam franchise and paving the way for its eventual third installment, Singam 3. Even a decade later, the success of Singam 2 is remembered as a milestone moment in Kollywood’s rise on the global box office map.
