Pati Patni Aur Woh Do Box vs Karuppu Office Collection Day 3: Suriya’s Fantasy Courtroom Drama Crushes Bollywood Rom-Com

Pati Patni Aur Woh Do vs Karuppu Box Office Collection Day 3: The day three box office clash between ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ and ‘Karuppu’ has revealed a clear winner at Indian cinemas. While Ayushmann Khurrana’s romantic comedy is witnessing gradual growth over the weekend, Suriya’s fantasy courtroom entertainer continues to dominate with powerful collections and a stronger audience pull. Both films were released on May 15, 2026 and cater to completely different audiences. One offers light-hearted family comedy packed with misunderstandings, while the other delivers a mass-action fantasy drama centred on justice and corruption.

According to Sacnilk, ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ collected an estimated ₹1.09 Cr net on day three while running across 2,529 shows nationwide.

The resulting misunderstandings create a clean, family-friendly comedy filled with confusion and emotional drama. Despite decent urban occupancy, the film is currently relying heavily on word-of-mouth growth to improve its theatrical performance.

Which Film Is Winning The Box Office Battle?

At the end of day three, ‘Karuppu’ holds a massive lead over ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ in both occupancy and revenue. Suriya’s larger-than-life courtroom fantasy has generated stronger momentum across southern markets, while the Hindi rom-com continues to perform moderately in multiplex circuits. If the current trend continues, ‘Karuppu’ could emerge as one of the biggest Tamil hits of 2026, whereas ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ may depend on steady weekday performance to recover its pace at the box office.
