Sucha Soorma, a Punjabi action biographical drama directed by Amitoj Maan, released on September 20, 2024. Starring Babbu Maan, the film centers around the legendary tale of Sucha Soorma, a historical figure celebrated for his courage and rebellious nature. Despite high expectations and a decent start, the movie’s performance at the box office has seen fluctuations as it moves through its second week.
Day 10 Box Office Collection
By Day 10, Sucha Soorma has amassed a total worldwide collection of ₹3.65 crore. The film’s performance saw a significant dip after the first weekend, struggling to keep up the momentum over the weekdays. On Day 10, the movie earned approximately ₹0.35 crore, reflecting a slight increase over the previous days. However, the numbers are still relatively low considering the film’s budget and expectations.

Worldwide Collection and Performance
The global performance of Sucha Soorma has not been very impressive, with most of its earnings coming from Indian markets, particularly Punjab. Overseas collections have been minimal, failing to attract much attention in international markets like Canada and the UK, where Punjabi films traditionally do well. The worldwide total stands at ₹3.65 crore, which is far below expectations for a film starring a popular actor like Babbu Maan.
Audience Reception and Critical Response
The film opened to mixed reviews from critics and audiences. While Babbu Maan’s performance has been appreciated for its intensity, the film’s pacing and screenplay have been criticized. Many felt that the narrative didn’t do justice to the legendary status of Sucha Soorma, and the lack of strong direction weakened the impact of the film.
Despite its star cast and high production values, the film has not been able to generate the buzz needed to maintain strong ticket sales. Word-of-mouth has not been favorable enough to sustain high occupancy rates in theaters after the first weekend.
Budget and Break-Even Point
The estimated budget of Sucha Soorma is around ₹8 crore, which includes production and marketing costs. To be considered a hit, the film needs to cross ₹10 crore in global earnings. Given the current trend, it seems unlikely that Sucha Soorma will reach this benchmark unless it sees a dramatic increase in collections over the next week.
Hit or Flop Verdict
At this point, Sucha Soorma is leaning towards being a flop unless there is a substantial turnaround in its box office performance. The film’s underwhelming performance in both domestic and international markets makes it difficult to label it a success. With a total collection of ₹3.65 crore after ten days, the film is struggling to break even, and chances of it reaching the ₹10 crore mark seem slim.
Conclusion
Sucha Soorma started off with decent numbers but quickly lost steam after the initial weekend. While Babbu Maan’s fanbase provided some early support, the film’s inability to maintain momentum has affected its overall performance. As it stands, Sucha Soorma is struggling to meet the expectations set before its release and is on the verge of being labeled a box office flop unless there is a sudden surge in ticket sales.
