Ajay Devgn’s latest comedy, Dhamaal 4, is finally out in theatres, and it kind of brings back that franchise vibe with crazy comedy, chaotic adventures and laugh-out-loud beats. Honestly, people are ready for the same familiar madness that’s kept the Dhamaal series as a favourite for years now.
Ajay Devgn’s Comedy Opens to a Strong Start at the Box Office
Dhamaal 4 hit the theatres on July 10, 2026, and it sort of opened with a strong response, even with competition from a bunch of Indian and international releases. Directed by Indra Kumar, this comedy entertainer came out as the biggest new release of the day, though, somehow. The film especially did very well in Maharashtra and the Delhi-NCR region, where the Dhamaal franchise has always had a loyal fan following, you know. As per early trade estimates, it managed an overall occupancy of around 24%, mainly pushed by the ensemble cast, which includes Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, and Jaaved Jaaferi.
Worldwide Collection Crosses the ₹20 Crore Mark on Day 1
The movie kind of did better than what they were expecting at the box office; it beat those early trade hunches of ₹12–13 crore for the opening day. It racked up a decent net collection in India, and then another ₹5 crore from overseas markets kind of added on, so the worldwide total managed to cross the ₹20 crore point on day one itself.
How Did Dhamaal 4 Perform Across India on Its Opening Day?
The film seemed to have a steady climb in how many people came in throughout the day, and later evening plus night shows brought in the biggest crowds. This rising occupancy kind of mirrors the strong word of mouth, and it also suggests that Dhamaal 4 managed to lure audiences into the theatres even while it had to deal with pretty tough competition at the box office.
Positive Word of Mouth Gives the Film an Early Boost
The movie got mixed critiques from critics; some were saying it’s a pretty fun-filled, entertaining ride, while others kind of pointed toward its heavy reliance on CGI and a comedy style that feels a bit familiar, like you’ve seen similar beats before. Even with the split views, Dhamaal 4 still somehow keeps people hooked, mainly because of that star-studded cast. And then, to make it even more exciting, the surprise post-credit scene that teases Dhamaal 5 turned into a big online chatter thing.
Can Dhamaal 4 Maintain Its Momentum Over the Weekend?
With a decent start at the box office on Friday, the film is now aiming to squeeze out the weekend, you know. Trade experts are saying collections should climb as more families troop in to the theatres, giving the movie that little extra lift it needs to keep a steady run. This matters especially before new releases come rolling in, because then it gets harder to hold attention and screens.
