Last week, Housefull 4 – the much-anticipated fourth installment in the celebrated Housefull franchise – hit screens to a decent reception. Promising plenty of laughter and mirth, it has been doing steady business at the box office since its release.
In this box office analysis, we compare the opening weekend collections of Housefull 4 to previous Diwali releases. With Rs. 53.22 cr earned in its opening weekend, Housefull 4 is the eighth highest-grossing film released during Diwali, having outperformed such past titles as Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (Rs. 35.60 cr) and Golmaal 3 (Rs. 33.58 cr). Nevertheless, it still fails to beat some other prominent releases such as Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (Rs. 129.77 cr), Thugs Of Hindostan (Rs. 123 cr), Happy New Year (Rs 108.86 cr), Ra One (Rs 92 cr), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (Rs 80.73 cr), Krrish 3 (Rs 72.80 cr), and Son Of Sardaar (66 02cr).
Despite being out for some time, Housefull 4 continues to perform well in cinemas and is expected to generate more profits due to the upcoming holidays in certain areas.
