The Ranveer Singh-starring Jayeshbhai Jordaar was released last week, and despite all the hype it has failed to create a connection with audiences. The film brought in only Rs 3.25 cr on its opening day, followed by business remaining low for the rest of its first weekend, earning only Rs 12 cr thus far. In this Box Office Report, we take a look at the Jayeshbhai Jordaar’s collections in its opening week. With 14.95 crores collected so far, it has become one of the ten highest grossers for 2022. It found little success with audiences who were more inclined to…
After being delayed for three weeks, the Kangana Ranaut starrer Dhaakad was finally released on September 22nd in cinemas across India. But since then it has run into a number of obstacles – its promotional plans were thwarted when an influential Indian newspaper refused to review its films due to disagreements between the director and the paper; coupled with lacklustre reviews from critics and audiences alike, Dhaakad did not do well overseas either. Despite releasing in over 300 screens abroad, there were barely any takers for the film outside India. On Day One alone, it collected just $2104 (approx Rs…
Director Anees Bazmee’s newest film, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 released today to a highly positive reception by critics and movie goers alike. In this box office report, we take a look at the success of Bhushan Kumar – Murad Khetani produced venture, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 that boasted 629 screenings on its opening day.

The Ranveer Singh-starred ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’ is only expanding its fiasco to include monumental proportions, the profits already taking a plunge by nearly 50% on day four. Estimates projected that this YRF motion picture managed to collect Rs. 1.60 -1.80 crores to take their grand total earnings up to Rs. 13.70 crores (local estimate). However, it’s not just in one region of India where profit had fallen short; every single theater within its borders declared its losses – this flick evidently being anything other than well-received by audiences within Mumbai city limits alone! It could be said then that people were…
The Punjabi film Saunkan Saunkne starring Ammy Virk has already done well since its release last week. Despite the lack of recognition in some international markets such as Canada, it’s faring very well there too due to an influx of Indian immigrants and people interested in Bollywood-style movies which are quite popular in North America. The film drew USD 109,254 (Rs. 85 lakh) in India when it was released on Friday, but after getting widespread success in Canada for example – where it opened with 29 screens and grossed $446,727 (3.48 cr.), making almost Rs 12 Cr from only two…
The Kashmir Files – which was directed by Vivek Agnihotri and released on the 19th – received a good response from theatre goers, who rushed to watch it within hours of its release. After being premiered in about 650 theatres at first, the film took off successfully and had an increase in screens over this weekend (from Saturday-Sunday). This enabled them to earn Rs. 27,150 crores from just those two days alone! On Mondays when it was back at the cinema for people to come see it again (this time with still more success!), it saw no drop off from…
The movie directed by Vivek Agnihotri, The Kashmir Files had an amazingly successful opening weekend. Released on Friday last week, it collected Rs. 3.55 cr within the first 24 hours of its screening – but this was only just the beginning. Saturday showed continuous improvement over Day One as it made Rs. 8.50 cr., or 325% more than what was generated on Opening Day alone! And now in response to Sunday’s success with Rs 17 crores (300% increase), The Kashmir Files had another spectacular record-breaking performance with Rs 15 crore (+325%) earned at the box office just yesterday! As per…

Last week we watched Dharmaveer go live in theaters for the first time. When it debuted, the movie had a mediocre showing, but eventually gained significant momentum during the weekend due to rave reviews on social media. This was quite an accomplishment given how competitive this year has been for Bollywood releases – even those that were opening wide like Jayeshbhai Jordaar could not take away all of Dharmaveer’s appeal. Well now after one whole week in theaters, it has managed to gross over thirteen million rupees! The success was largely attributed to people residing in districts such as Thane,…
