It was just yesterday when Suriya's magnum opus 'Kanguva' was released. The fantasy action-drama movie started on a decent note, earning about Rs 40 crore on day 1 at the box office. The film's early morning shows faced technical issues that led to nearly an hour’s delay for the shows to start. Directed by Siva, the film received a decent welcome from the audience, considering the technical errors faced.

Early calculations suggested that the movie earned Rs 40 crore gross worldwide. For a movie of that stature, though it’s a decent start, it is also worrisome to see such an ordinary day 1 collection. According to tracking website Sacnilk, 'Kanguva' is said to have earned approximately Rs 22 crore nett at the domestic box office on its Day 1 (November 14). The Tamil version of the film recorded an occupancy of 37.25 percent.
