It is RRR right now and it will always be RRR as this movie continues to impress the audience both critically and financially. The film has opened well at the box office with collections reaching $12 million dollars on its second day of release. It even managed to surpass expectations after making $13.5 million dollars that day – so it can now be considered an international blockbuster without a doubt! With Attack – Part 1 the only new release of the week, one would expect RRR (Hindi) to go down at least by a few crores. But surprisingly the collection…
SS Rajamouli’s much anticipated historical drama, RRR has been met with popularity at the box office after having made close to Rs. 710 crores- which places it among some of the highest-grossing Indian films. The film is competing solely against Baahubali 2 as its taken over all previous lifetime earnings of Indian movies (excluding China). It has also earned $21 million (160 crore) internationally while it made a grand total of 550+ crore in India alone ($1 = 65 rupees). Andhra Pradesh and Telangana ranked as one of the most popular regions for RRR due to them earning about 250…
John Abraham’s latest film, Attack, which stars him as a superhuman solider, took a dismal start with the movie collecting approximately Rs. 2.85 to 3.15 crore on opening day according to industry analysts’ estimates- much lower than the top end estimate of Rs.5crore plus predicted pre-release. For an action-packed thriller such as Attack, this was far too low an opening (it made less than 1% of what Amitabh Bachchan’s recent release Thugs Of Hindostan made). Given this slow start and considering that it faced stiff competition from other films for ticket sales (on Friday alone there were seven major releases),…
Yet another week, yet another biggie. There have been a series of well-made films that were released over the last five weeks, starting with Gangubai Kathiawadi in February. The good run of Hindi films has been going quite well with RRR being the latest addition to the lot. Now the John Abraham starrer Attack – Part 1 is expected to take forward the momentum as it hit theaters this Friday. The film began production in 2020 and thanks to John Abraham investing his own money as a producer; there was a lot at stake here. This SciFi movie has been…
SS Rajamouli’s much anticipated period drama, RRR continues with it’s strong run as the film collects about Rs. 13.25 – 14.00 Crores on Wednesday for a six-day total of 120 Crores Rupees*. With this, RRR will surpass the Rohit Shetty cop drama, Sooryavanshi that made only Rs. 130 Crores in it’s first week when it was released last year because now we’re living in troubled economic times**. Not only did these two movies make an equal amount at the Box Office after just one week but RR achieved this during a non-holiday season unlike Sooryvanshi who made their box office…
It has been raining double centuries in the movie industry this year. The Kashmir Files scored a double century within two weeks, and then went on to continue standing tall one week later. Conversely, RRR (Hindi) did quite well in its first week and is now racing towards the Rs.200 crore mark – all within three weeks of release! This marks two consecutive doubles for Indian cinema which is remarkable given that an average film usually scores just one or none at all over the course of its release. There was a buzz surrounding this movie when it first came…

In this Box Office Report, we will compare the number of people who went to watch the film called RRR against those who went to watch various other movies. During its first week…
Jersey slipped even lower on Thursday, with box office earnings declining from the day before. Estimates place its Friday takings at approximately Rs. 2 crores to take its cumulative seven-day earnings to about 20.1 crore rupees (approx US$2.9 million). The movie is likely to break even just over Rs. 20 crore and it’s projected as a disappointing failure at the box office because its lifetime collections would not exceed those of other films like Jersey or Rangoon or Chance Pe Dance, although it would almost match the first day collection of Shahid Kapoor’s latest film, Kabir Singh (which did better…
The Indian Movie, Drishyam starring Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan was released 15 days ago at the Chinese Box Office. Beginning with a slow start, the movie had trouble gaining traction but after Day 14 it has drawn in $1.3 million dollars more than it started out with, taking its total earnings to $2.07 million dollars. This is much lower than all other Bollywood movies which were received well by Chinese audiences because they were not hampered by government restrictions on travel when there was an outbreak of deadly virus Covid-19. Going forward, the business of the film at the…
