The box office journey of the Imtiaz Ali directorial is starting to gain momentum, slowly but surely. On its second day in theatres the film saw a solid jump in collections, with more families and movie lovers heading to cinemas, like it’s working in a quiet way. The strong Saturday growth suggests that the film’s emotional story is striking a chord with viewers, and it is helping it maintain its footing, though there is competition from several other releases currently running in theatres too.
‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’ Crosses Rs 3 Crore Mark Within Two Days
The film saw a kind of steady rise in collections on its second day, and this helped it slide past a major milestone at the domestic box office. After it opened on a modest note last Friday, the emotional drama brought in an estimated Rs 1.85 crore on Saturday, which means its India net total across two days is now around Rs 3 crore.
Movie Outperforms Kangana Ranaut’s Release in Early Collections
The competition at the box office is fierce, but Diljit Dosanjh’s latest film has been able to beat the big competitor. The Kangana Ranaut-led real-life-based drama Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata has proved to be the better show as far as the performances are concerned in the face of the Imtiaz Ali-directed one. Diljit’s film fared better on Saturday, as it was able to score positively from the audience, established a decent star quotient, and enjoyed the emotional story to perform a decent sales race and keep a comfortable balance at the ticket windows, whereas Kangana’s movie was able to build sufficient momentum after scoring around Rs 1.45 crore on Saturday.
Can Diljit’s Latest Release Build on Its Promising Start Over the Weekend?
With collections picking up a bit, the spotlight is now on Sunday’s performance, and if the film can really make the most of that weekend rush. The strong jump in numbers is definitely encouraging, but the movie still has to deal with competition from Hollywood releases, plus other films that are already running in theatres. In the long haul its success will hinge on how well it manages to hold up during the weekdays because steady collections over the coming days will be what matters most to lock in a profitable theatrical run.
