The film's arrival on OTT comes as a surprise to some fans, many of whom expected its theatrical run to continue given its sustained performance at the box office. Positive word of mouth and favourable reviews from critics helped the film maintain momentum well beyond its opening week.

How did Karuppu perform at the box office?

Karuppu hit theatres on May 15, a day later than originally planned, after facing last-minute delays linked to pending financial settlements involving the production. Despite the setback, the film opened strongly and quickly established itself as a major commercial success.

The film also ended a prolonged dry spell at the Tamil Nadu box office and went on to rewrite several records. Within four days of release, Karuppu surpassed the lifetime collections of Singam 2 to become the highest-grossing film of Suriya's career. It later crossed the worldwide earnings of films such as Mersal, Petta and Thunivu, entering the Rs 200 crore club within eight days.

All about Suriya's Karuppu

In Karuppu, Suriya plays the titular guardian deity who descends to Earth after a distressed family seeks divine intervention. As he witnesses a legal system manipulated by corruption and power, he takes it upon himself to challenge the status quo and restore justice.

The film also stars Trisha, Indrans, Swasika, Sshivada, Anagha Maya Ravi, Supreeth Reddy and Natty Natraj in key roles. RJ Balaji appears as the antagonist, Baby Kannan. The technical crew includes cinematographer GK Vishnu, editor Kalaivanan and composer Sai Abhyankkar.
