The KGF- Chapter 2 by Yash released a few months ago and continues to dominate the theaters across the world. After it’s outstanding opening, audiences flocked to theaters everywhere from Mumbai to America. The business of this film grew immensely due to audiences who love it so much; especially after collecting Rs. 130.21 cr for just one circuit (Mumbai) when compared to other movies made in the area like Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior which earned Rs. 134.96 cr in just one city (Mumbai). With there being no sign that people would stop viewing it anytime soon, predictions say that…

In this box office report, we compare the opening day collections of Jayeshbhai Jordaar while mentioning how they are similar to those made by Ranveer Sing’ past films. Collecting Rs. 3.25 cr when most of his other openings had…

The Tiger Shroff-starrer Heropanti 2 which released two weeks ago faced significant competition when it came to the Ajay Devgn-starrer Runway 34. Both films were overshadowed by KGF – Chapter 2, which continues its reign as one of the most successful Indian cinema export ever despite releasing just last month. Despite this, Heropanti 2 fared better in its second weekend than it did in its first weekend after bringing in an additional Rs 75 lakhs. Industry insiders attribute this to the several other high profile releases taking place at the same time while others point towards the fact that due…

Jersey, starring Shahid Kapoor and directed by Sriram Madhav, was released two months after originally planned. Nani’s original (unreleased) version of the movie had been remade with slight changes in some scenes. Audiences weren’t expecting high earnings so they didn’t spend money on this film. The movie did well for 3 weeks before going downhill due to lack of advertising and competition against other films already out like KGF-Chapter 2 and RRR. Other competing films include Runway 34, Heropanti2, and the Hollywood release Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness which decreased the number of people attending Jersey screenings over…

RRR, a blockbuster movie directed by the famed SS Rajamouli who released his work just a while back, has had stellar success in spite of recent films. The colossal opening night performance was followed up with strong continuous revenue stream. It managed to beat out other successful films such as Panjamawadi or Sengaa Veettu Kadal which both had been released after it did. Though estimated to be one of the most successful films this year thanks to what it grossed within a short amount of time – it had still reached amazing heights and boasted an impressive collection just within…

Marvel fans have been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness after hearing so much about it. Released just over a week ago, it has already seen success but may soon decline as well due to early selling tickets being available a whole month before its release. Opening with USD 187 million at the USA box office on Friday, there was only a small decrease in revenue on weekdays afterward – an impressive accomplishment considering that most other films follow this pattern. Although business will no doubt continue to fluctuate according to trends and popularity,…

Breaking records across 1250 screens overseas, Jayeshbhai Jordaars worldwide first-day gross of approx. 160k USD is above average; still no official numbers from the international markets yet to make predictions off of.

One film, KGF-Chapter 2, has been tearing up the rulebook ever since its release. After a resounding opening weekend and stellar success for subsequent weeks, the movie broke records one after another. The latest numbers show that the movie earned Rs 420 crore, or US$60 million at domestic ticket sales alone. Its dubbed versions in Telugu and Tamil also excelled with collections at over Rs 200 crore each – testament to how potent Indian cinema can be. Moreover, this phenomenon extended beyond just India where Kappa మీద (an unofficial name) fetched USD 10million during an initial three day run -…

Based off our initial estimations of the box office running in its opening days, the film is performing at around Rs. 20 crores if we consider averaging a conservative projection. Being released during one of the most hectic periods for releases, it is expected to take anywhere between 4-5 hours (considering another million people see previews) for this particular psychological thriller release. With audiences leaving an average review about the plot, good performances – this may fail to grow on future weeks which leads us to believe there won’t be many people waiting eagerly in line come weekdays either. Regardless…
