‘Kanguva’ was one of the most anticipated movies of the year but the movie’s plot disappointed the audiences. The movie revolves around  Francis Theodore, who is connected to a fierce tribal warrior in the year 1070. Made on a budget of Rs 350 crore, ‘Kanguva’ has only been able to cross the Rs 60 crore mark in India at the box office. The movie also received praise for its performance and visuals but fans criticized its weak plot and loud background score. 

Kanguva Box Office Collection Day 10:

According to the website Sacnilk, ‘Kanguva’ only collected Rs 1.1 crore approximately on day 10. It earned Rs 66.1 crore in total in India.  

Suriya’s wife Jyotika, who is a popular actress, penned an appreciation note for ‘Kanguva’ and called out those spreading the hate against the film. She wrote, “I pen this note as Jyotika and a cinema lover and not actor Suriya’s wife -Kanguva – a spectacle in cinema. So proud of you Suriya, for the actor you are and how you dare to dream to take cinema forward. Definitely the first 1/2 hr doesn’t work n the sound is jarring! Flaws r a part of most Iindian films, so that’s only fair, especially in this kind of a film wherein one experiments largely! N it’s just the first 1/2 hr from the whole 3 hrs. But to be true, it’s an absolute cinematic experience! Camera work n execution never before seen in Tamizh cinema, @vetripalanisamy.”

While expressing her disappointment over the negative reviews, she further added, “I’m surprised with the negative reviews from media and certain fraternities, as it’s not done by them to this high level for the most unintellectual big budget films I have seen earlier with age old stories, where women r stalked, double meaning dialogues r spoken and have the most over the top action sequences.. N what about Kanguva’s positives? The women action sequence in 2nd half and the young boy’s love and betrayal for Kanguva? I think they forgot about the good parts while reviewing. Now this Makes me wonder largely whether one should ever read, listen or believe them after all!”
