Mardaani 2 is doing well off the back of positive word-of-mouth. This trend continued yesterday, with an additional Rs.1.45 crores* added to its total earnings for the day. Yesterday earned Rs. 1.25 crores*, which means it has seen a jump from the previous day’s earnings and is moving in the right direction overall. The movie has earned Rs. 36.40 crores* so far and will likely earn around Rs. 40 crores before the end of its second week because many people are celebrating holidays due to Christmas today. Few movies survive the impact of a major bollywood blockbuster, but this Rani…

The much-talked-about and highly anticipated film Dabangg 3 was released at last. It has become one of the most discussed movies in recent times because it was directed by Prabhu Dheva. But what effect this will have on its box office numbers is unclear. In this Box Office Report, we will take a look at how Dabangg 3 fared internationally on its fourth day abroad.

Just when it seemed that things were looking up for Dabangg 3 – with a collection of Rs. 31.90 crores in just one day – what followed next was unexpected. On Monday, the film earned less than half of its worth at the box office- bringing in just 10.70 crores instead of the ideal 15 crore goal due to diminished footfalls and other factors playing havoc. However, with external factors settling down now (Friday being an exception), there has been an improvement in earnings; earning about 24.50 crores on Friday alone due to other groups rallying behind this third installment…

Mardaani 2 has shown an impressive growth of 10% from Friday to Monday in terms of box office revenue. On average, movies only see a rise of 5% from one day to the next which is why this result for Mardaani 2 is so unique and uncommon. After Friday’s 50% drop, Dabangg 3 was barely able to hold up enough for its second week. However, Mardaani 2 managed a modest 10% increase over last week – an excellent sign for this Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starring film. It’s no secret that the film had been hampered by low turnout in theatres…

According to figures released today, the film Dabangg 3 collected Rs. 81.15 crores in its opening weekend at theaters across India. Though this number sounds lower than usual for a Salman Khan movie given his past successes, it is still respectable given most movies do not make such earnings in their first three days of release. On Sunday, the film earned Rs. 31.90 crores more than what it had been earning on Friday and Saturday – a significant improvement to say the least. With such a wide distribution, however, it’s possible that Prabhudeva’s latest blockbuster might have earned even more…

The anticipated Salman Khan starrer Dabangg 3 released this past Friday to mixed reviews from critics. The film which was expected to bring in good numbers during its opening day has seen a dismal performance mainly due to on-going nationwide anti-CAA protests. These nationwide anti-CAA protest resulted in theater owners losing money for every movie screening as many people stayed home or went out and protested against it, making it difficult for theaters to generate profits. The opening weekend business for Dabangg 3 seems to have taken a heavy toll thus far, with an estimated loss of about Rs. 20…

Despite the presence of major competitors such as Dabangg 3 and audiences awaiting another anticipated film, people still showed interest in holdovers such as Mardaani 2 and Pati patni aur woh. Mardaani 2 continues to do well, raking in Rs. 2.55 crores yesterday (Sunday). This Ranvi Mukherjee starrer has been performing the best at cinemas that are located in metropolises; specifically, these performances come from urban audiences who are predominately from upper-middle class backgrounds – this is where Mardaani 2 collects its highest earnings too. Currently, Mardaani 2 stands at a collection of Rs. 33.70 crores and hopes for an…

Akshay Kumar’s Good News has taken a good opening at the box-office. The early showings did well but the movie found its stride by evening time and continued performing through late-night shows; clearly indicating that audiences were enjoying it. In 2019, Akshay Kumar had four films release consecutively and all managed to stay in the Top 10 biggest opening days. Leading with the number 1 slot was Mission Mangal while Kesari falls under 3rd place followed closely by Good News and Houseful 4 right behind one another. Let’s take a look: Mission Mangal – Rs. 29.16 crores Gold – Rs.…

As anticipated, Dabangg 3 suffered a major decline on the second Friday. This was to be expected given that it ran unsteadily throughout the week with holidays being helpful for its earnings and regular days seeming relatively low. Moreover, due to Good News flooding most screens – especially those in Multiplexes – and earning decent word of mouth from audiences, Dabangg 3 became an unpopular alternative for viewers. The movie made a net profit of Rs. 2.70 crores after adding up the earnings from Friday alone, and has gathered 124.28 crores overall thus far. With ticket prices going up every…
