Kanguva’s negative feedback
Upon its initial theatrical release, the Suriya-starrer period fantasy film faced backlash from audiences for its mediocre storyline and headache-inducing background score. Most viewers were disappointed by filmmaker Siva’s excessive hype surrounding the film and were unsatisfied with its narrative. However, fans praised Suriya’s performance. Despite an interesting climax and Karthi’s cameo introduction teasing a sequel showdown between Suriya and Karthi, the film failed to resonate with audiences, leading to its box office failure.
Kanguva box office performance
At the box office, Kanguva collected ₹70.16 crores in India while domestically, the film garnered ₹82.41 crores, with its overseas earnings amounted to ₹24 crores. In Hindi markets, it earned ₹14.83 crores overall but managed just ₹2 lakhs on day 20. Despite its efforts, the movie's total box office collection stands at a modest ₹106.41 crores, falling significantly short of its massive ₹350-crore budget.
