Speaking during a recent interaction with Sudhir Srinivasan, she shared her happiness over the audience support and the strong box office numbers.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Jyotika talks about box office importance<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>During the discussion, the host compared &#8216;Karuppu&#8217; to Kamal Haasan\u2019s &#8216;Vikram&#8217; and observed that while the film may not necessarily be considered Suriya\u2019s finest work critically, it delivered the celebratory theatrical experience fans wanted.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Reacting to the statement, Jyotika spoke about the importance of balancing storytelling with commercial success in cinema.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>&#8220;We&#8217;re very overwhelmed. Suriya loves telling good stories and he always makes sure there&#8217;s a story in every film. But the box office numbers are also required, I think, for the heroes. Or for actors, any actor, any budget. No one&#8217;s here to be at a loss. So, it&#8217;s very important for them also to churn out the numbers,&#8221; she said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Jyotika says &#8216;Karuppu&#8217; has its own soul<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Jyotika further explained why she feels &#8216;Karuppu&#8217; stands apart from regular mass entertainers. According to her, the film combines fan-service moments with an emotional core and meaningful storytelling.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>&#8220;Definitely, it&#8217;s very overwhelming. And if you see &#8216;Karuppu&#8217;, along with being an absolute fan and commercial film, there&#8217;s a story going on. He&#8217;s playing a God, and there&#8217;s something to the script, definitely. <!-- -->It&#8217;s not just one of the run-of-the-mill commercial films. It has its own soul. It&#8217;s just been put across differently for the masses to see. But the last ten minutes of the film, I mean, Suriya&#8217;s really performed brilliantly.<!-- --> We&#8217;re so overwhelmed and so happy with the love. It&#8217;s a celebration at home.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>&#8216;Karuppu&#8217; continues strong box office run<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The film has maintained a solid theatrical run despite minor drops in daily collections.
