Dhurandhar 2 Day 51 Box Office: Sequel Collects Rs. 0.42 Cr; Collections See A 16% Drop Compared To Thursday

Dhurandhar 2 has entered its eighth week of theatrical run, and the performance on its 51st day shows that the film is still holding its ground quite well for a movie that has been playing for nearly two months.While it is standard for collections to taper off after seven weeks, the activity on Friday suggests that the weekend transition is helping the film stay relevant at the ticket windows.

One of the most encouraging signs for the film is the trend in ticket bookings on BookMyShow. On its 8th Friday, the movie saw approximately 12.88K tickets being booked. This is a noticeable improvement compared to the 8th Thursday, where the booking count stood at 10.96K. This increase indicates that the audience is still showing interest in catching the film on the big screen during the weekend, even with several new releases currently in the market.

On Day 51, Dhurandhar 2 managed to collect an India net of ₹0.42 crore. When we look at the language breakdown, it is clear that the Hindi version continues to be the primary engine for the film, contributing ₹0.40 crore from 620 shows with an occupancy of 16.0%. The Tamil and Telugu versions are playing on a very limited number of screens now, contributing around ₹0.01 crore each. For a film on its 51st day, maintaining over 600 shows in the Hindi belt is a significant achievement in itself.

If we take a step back and look at the overall journey, the total India net collection has reached a massive ₹1,141.09 crore. This total is built on a very strong foundation across all languages. The Hindi version alone has contributed a staggering ₹1,072.79 crore. The Telugu version follows with ₹42.98 crore, and the Tamil version has brought in ₹19.72 crore. Even the smaller markets like Kannada and Malayalam have contributed ₹3.83 crore and ₹1.77 crore respectively. These numbers reflect how the film performed like a true pan-India blockbuster during its peak weeks.

Looking at the performance in national multiplex chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film recorded 2,455 ticket sales across 357 shows on Friday. This resulted in a gross collection of ₹7.78 lakh from these chains. PVR led the way with 1,274 tickets sold and a gross of ₹4.59 lakh, while INOX followed with 960 tickets and a gross of ₹2.58 lakh. Although the overall occupancy in these chains was over 4%, the fact that it is still occupying 270+ venues across the country shows that exhibitors still find value in keeping the film on their schedules.

The regional occupancy data provides some very interesting insights. In Chennai, the film saw an impressive overall occupancy of 54.5% for its 5 shows. The night shows in Chennai were particularly busy, hitting 72.0% occupancy, which is remarkable for an eighth-week run. In Hyderabad, the movie maintained a steady 25.8% occupancy across 7 shows, with the afternoon screenings performing the best at 35.0%.

The improvement in Friday's bookings suggests a healthy eighth weekend ahead, where we can expect stable numbers or a small growth on Saturday and Sunday. With the total net collection already sitting comfortably at ₹1,141.09 crore, these daily additions are just rounding off a historic performance. The film has already secured its blockbuster status and is now looking at a very professional and steady conclusion at the ticket windows.

Peddi Box Office: Ram Charan Starrer's Worldwide Pre-Release Theatrical Business Details and Break-Even Target

BY SUNIT JANGIR

Hyderabad, June 1 - Superstar Ram Charan's upcoming pan-India entertainer Peddi has turned into one of the biggest pre-release business ventures in Telugu cinema. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana and backed by massive buzz across domestic and overseas markets, the film has secured a huge theatrical valuation even before hitting the big screens. Peddi Gets 220 Crore Pre-Release Theatrical Business According to T2BLive, Peddi has closed its worldwide theatrical business in the 220 crore range, placing it among the highest pre-release deals ever for a Telugu film outside the RRR and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion league. The film has been carrying solid buzz; the business details indicate the same. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana), the rural sports action drama has reportedly secured 135 crores in business, including 48 crores for the Nizam area. Outside the home market, Peddi's pre-release theatrical business in Karnataka has been valued at 17 crore, while the rest of the domestic market has been valued at 32+ crores, including 25 crores for the Hindi region. At the overseas box office, the makers have locked a 34 crore deal, which is among the highest for a Ram Charan starrer. The total worldwide business of Peddi is said to be around 220 crores, the second-highest (solo) for the RRR star, after Game Changer. Huge Break-Even Challenge (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With such a massive valuation, Peddi faces a huge box office target. To break even and emerge as a box office hit, the film needs to gross around 450 crores worldwide, which will make it Ram Charan's biggest solo grosser and second biggest overall after RRR, if it achieves the target. Distributors are banking on strong openings, premium pricing, and sustained audience reception to recover the investment comfortably. Also starring Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, and Jagapathi Babu, with music composed by A. R. Rahman, Peddi is scheduled for a grand worldwide release on June 4, 2026. Trade analysts expect the film to register one of the biggest openings of the year and potentially challenge several existing Telugu box office records.

Chand Mera Dil 2nd Weekend Box Office: Emotional Drama Nets Rs. 4.85 Cr; Worldwide Gross Reaches Over 32 Cr

BY CHRISTA LINCY

The narrative of Chand Mera Dil moves away from traditional college romances to explore much more difficult territory. By following Aarav and Chandni through an unplanned pregnancy and the resulting pressures of a young marriage, the film touches on themes of divorce and career frustration. This grounded approach to engineering student life has resulted in a mixed response from the audience, as the intensity of the plot contrasts with what some might expect from a campus setting. These factors are reflected in the steady but cautious box office numbers seen over the second weekend. During its second weekend, the film followed a typical pattern for urban-centric releases. After a sharp 40.9 percent drop on Friday, where it collected 1.30 Cr, the movie showed a healthy recovery on Saturday with a 34.6 percent jump. Sunday remained steady with a 2.9 percent growth over Saturday, bringing in 1.80 Cr. In total, the second weekend added a net of 4.85 Cr to its domestic tally. This brings the cumulative India net collection to 24.30 Cr and the worldwide gross to 32.24 Cr after ten days in theaters. The engagement on ticketing platforms and national chains reflects this consistent interest. Over 14,000 tickets were sold in national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis over the weekend. On Sunday alone, these chains contributed approximately 3,080 tickets. Specifically, PVR accounted for roughly 1,150 tickets, INOX sold 1,570 tickets, and Cinepolis added 360 tickets. On BookMyShow, the film recorded over 21,400 tickets in the last 24 hours, taking its cumulative total on the platform to 4.29 lakh tickets so far. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Regional occupancy on Sunday was highest in Mumbai, where the film recorded an overall occupancy of 23.5 percent across 163 shows. The evening shows in this region were particularly strong at 35 percent. In the National Capital Region (NCR), the movie maintained a high volume of 425 shows with an average occupancy of 14.5 percent. Other cities like Ahmedabad and Surat held steady at 12.3 percent and 11 percent respectively. These numbers indicate that the film is finding its primary audience in the urban multiplexes of Western and Northern India. Internationally, the film added 0.45 Cr over the weekend to reach a total overseas gross of 3.50 Cr. Combined with the India gross of 28.74 Cr, Chand Mera Dil is steadily moving toward the 35 Cr mark globally. Having completed nearly 38,600 shows across its run, the film is proving to be a stable performer for its genre. The focus now shifts to the second weekdays to see how well it maintains its theater count against upcoming releases.

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Raja Shivaji continues to maintain a steady presence in theaters as it moves through its fifth week of release. For a historical biopic that has already secured its position as a major commercial success, the fact that it is still drawing audiences after a month speaks to the long-term interest in the subject matter. The film offers a grounded portrayal of the iconic ruler, and the Marathi audience has consistently supported the project across both urban and rural centers. While the initial frenzy has naturally slowed down, the current numbers indicate a stable run during the weekends. The performance over the fifth weekend showed a healthy growth trend from Friday to Sunday. On Friday, or Day 29, the movie collected a gross of 0.32 Cr with an overall occupancy of 14 percent across 536 shows. Saturday saw a significant jump in audience turnout, with the gross reaching 0.58 Cr and occupancy rising to 20.4 percent. Sunday recorded the highest collection of the week at 0.68 Cr gross from 527 shows, with occupancy peaking at 24.8 percent. This brought the fifth weekend total gross to approximately 1.58 Cr, which is a respectable figure for a film at this stage of its theatrical life. Ticketing activity on digital platforms remains active, with BookMyShow recording 7.54K tickets on Friday, 11.91K on Saturday, and 10.48K on Sunday. This brings the cumulative tickets sold on the platform to over 25.91 Lakh. In national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film managed to sell over 2,300 tickets during the weekend. These steady sales numbers across 90,279 lifetime shows indicate that the film is effectively utilizing its limited show count to maintain a consistent revenue stream. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The cumulative collections highlight how well the film has performed across different markets. Marathi remains the leading contributor with a total gross of 82.66 Cr and a net of 70.02 Cr. The Hindi version has also found its own audience, contributing 29.71 Cr gross and 25.15 Cr net. Having already established itself as the highest-grossing Marathi film some time ago, these additional collections further strengthen its record-breaking status. The overseas market has contributed 4.27 Cr gross, which, when added to the domestic total, brings the worldwide gross collection to a significant milestone.

Obsession Box Office: Curry Barker's Psychological Horror Scored A Good Opening Weekend In India

BY SUNIT JANGIR

Mumbai, June 1 - Director Curry Barker's psychological horror thriller Obsession has emerged as one of the biggest surprise successes of 2026, and the film is now making its presence felt in India as well. After a sensational run in North America and several international markets, the low-budget horror film has registered a solid opening weekend at the Indian box office. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) After taking a decent opening of 2.10 crores gross (including previews), Obsession witnessed a solid growth over Saturday and Sunday to score 9.30 crores gross opening weekend. This makes it one of the biggest weekends for a horror title in India, amid the ever growing intrest for the genre among the audiences. The weekend trend has been positive, which indicates a long run for Obsession. What makes the performance particularly noteworthy is that Obsession is an original, non-franchise horror film with no major stars attached to it. The movie has benefited from positive word-of-mouth, strong social media buzz, and curiosity surrounding filmmaker Curry Barker, who transitioned from YouTube content creation to directing a theatrical feature. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Globally, Obsession has become one of the most profitable films of the year. Produced on a budget reportedly under $1 million, the horror thriller has already grossed the $148 million worldwide, including $105 million domestically (North America) through its third weekend. It is one of the rare films to witness a growth in the third weekend, both in North America and overseas, continuing to climb new highs. The film stars Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette and follows a disturbing supernatural tale involving a young man whose wish for his longtime crush's affection unleashes terrifying consequences. Critics and audiences have responded positively to the film's psychological horror elements and suspense-driven storytelling.

Blast Opening Weekend Box Office: Worldwide Gross Hits Rs. 21.58 Cr; Sunday Gross Nearly 5X of Opening Day

BY CHRISTA LINCY

The first weekend for the movie Blast shows how strong word-of-mouth can completely shift a film's box office trajectory. What started as a modest release has quickly turned into a profitable venture for the producers. The movie was made on a reported budget of 15 Cr, and with a major portion of that already recovered through Netflix digital rights, every rupee earned at the ticket window now adds to its success. The gritty vibe of the film and its engaging plot seem to have caught the attention of the audience, leading to an impressive jump in show counts and occupancy as the weekend progressed. Analyzing the growth from the first day to the fourth, the momentum is clearly visible. On Day 1, the film opened with a net collection of 1.25 Cr from 1,728 shows. By Sunday, Day 4, the demand pushed the show count to 2,706, and the net collection grew to 6.00 Cr. This represents a massive surge compared to the opening day. The occupancy levels provide a clearer picture of this trend; in Chennai, the Tamil version started at 39.5 percent occupancy on Thursday and skyrocketed to 73.3 percent by Sunday. Similarly, Coimbatore saw a jump from 25.8 percent to 69.3 percent. This type of growth suggests that the audience is actively recommending the film, which is the best-case scenario for a mid-budget project. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The regional performance has been led by Tamil Nadu, which contributed 3.75 Cr to the gross on Sunday alone, bringing its total state gross to 9.30 Cr. Kerala has also emerged as a strong market, with a Sunday gross of 1.45 Cr taking its total to 2.56 Cr. In the Telugu states, the movie earned 1.00 Cr gross on Day 4, with Hyderabad recording a 32 percent occupancy. Significantly, the total India gross of 16.03 Cr has already overtaken the film's 15 Cr production budget within the first four days. With digital rights already securing the investment and the worldwide gross standing at 21.58 Cr, the project has moved into a super-profitable zone. Ticketing momentum in national chains and digital platforms also tells a story of increasing popularity. Over 42,000 tickets were sold in national chains throughout the weekend. The momentum built up significantly from around 7,300 tickets on Day 1 to a peak of 17,000 tickets on Saturday, followed by 11,000 on Sunday. On BookMyShow, the engagement has been high, with over 1.42 Lakh tickets sold in the last 24 hours alone. The total tickets sold on the platform have now reached 399.53K, indicating a very active interest from urban audiences who are driving the multiplex numbers. Internationally, the film is finding a decent footing as well. The worldwide gross collection has reached 21.58 Cr, supported by an overseas total of 5.55 Cr. The Middle East has been a standout performer in the international circuit, grossing $140K in the first two days alone. By the end of the four-day weekend, the total India gross stands at 16.03 Cr. Given the low cost of production and the high recovery from digital rights, Blast is currently positioned as one of the most efficient commercial successes of the year.

Dhurandhar 2 11th Weekend Box Office: Nets Rs. 0.50 Cr; Sees 40% Drop Compared to 10th Weekend

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is part of the popular Spy Universe, a franchise known for its connected stories and high-scale action. Being a sequel has helped the film reach a wide audience both in India and internationally. The fact that it has stayed in theaters for eleven weeks is a rare achievement for an action movie, showing that viewers are still interested in this franchise even after two months of its release. During its eleventh weekend, the film showed consistent performance across its limited show count. On Friday, Day 72, it collected a net of 0.10 Cr from 203 shows with an overall occupancy of 14 percent. Saturday, Day 73, saw a 100 percent growth as the collection rose to 0.20 Cr with 225 shows and an occupancy of 20 percent. On Sunday, Day 74, the film held its ground with another 0.20 Cr net from 233 shows, with the overall occupancy peaking at 21 percent. This steady weekend performance brought the eleventh-weekend total to approximately 0.50 Cr net, which is a solid figure for a film at this stage of its theatrical life. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The 0.50 Cr net collected over this weekend indicates a typical tapering of earnings as the film moves further into its theatrical run. Compared to the 0.83 Cr net earned during the tenth weekend, there has been a decline of approximately 40 percent in the collections. This drop is standard for a major release at this stage, especially considering the film is still maintaining over 200 shows daily across the country while competing with newer titles. In national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film sold over 3,100 tickets during the weekend. On Sunday alone, these chains accounted for approximately 780 tickets. PVR led the count with around 450 tickets, followed by INOX with 270 tickets and Cinepolis with 60 tickets. These rounded figures reflect the film's continued presence in major urban multiplexes. Digital engagement on BookMyShow also remained active, with 6.49K tickets booked on the eleventh Saturday alone, bringing the cumulative tickets sold on the platform to a staggering 1.83 crore across its entire run. Regional occupancy on Sunday was led by the National Capital Region (NCR), which recorded an 18 percent average across 59 shows, with afternoon screenings reaching as high as 31 percent. Ahmedabad maintained a 13 percent occupancy over 16 shows, peaking at 26 percent in the afternoon. These localized numbers indicate that the Spy Universe continues to find viewers in key Hindi-speaking markets, helping the film sustain its show count even as newer releases enter the fray.

Bhooth Bangla 7th Weekend Box Office: Akshay Kumar Starrer Nets Rs. 2.45 Cr; Now His 3rd Highest Post-Pandemic Grosser

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla has moved into its seventh weekend with a steady performance at the box office. The film, which blends horror and comedy, has managed to maintain a consistent presence in theaters, primarily due to its appeal in the mass circuits and family audience segments. Entering Day 45, the movie continues to find an audience despite the long duration since its release, which is a testament to the genre's enduring popularity and the star's pull in the domestic market. During its seventh weekend, the film showed a typical but healthy growth pattern. Friday, or Day 43, started the weekend with a net collection of 0.55 Cr across 1,396 shows. Saturday saw a significant jump of 45.5 percent, bringing in 0.80 Cr from 1,480 shows. The momentum continued into Sunday, Day 45, which recorded the highest collection of the weekend at 1.10 Cr from 1,539 shows. This represents a 37.5 percent growth over Saturday's numbers. In total, the film added 2.45 Cr to its domestic net over these three days, showing that there is still a clear demand for the film in its late theatrical stage. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ticketing trends on digital platforms and national chains further confirm this stability. On BookMyShow, the film saw 8.11K tickets sold on Friday, which increased to 12.04K on Saturday and peaked at 16.09K on Sunday. This brings the cumulative tickets sold on the platform to over 3.35 million. In national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film sold more than 4,900 tickets over the weekend. On Sunday alone, approximately 1,200 tickets were sold in these chains, with PVR contributing 330 tickets, INOX adding 580 tickets, and Cinepolis accounting for 290 tickets. The occupancy rates on Sunday remained decent for a film in its seventh week, with an overall average of 18 percent across the country. Looking at the major regions, the National Capital Region (NCR) held 235 shows with a 19.3 percent occupancy, seeing peaks of 29 percent during the evening. Lucknow performed even better with 20.8 percent occupancy across 60 shows, reaching up to 33 percent in the afternoon. Ahmedabad also maintained a steady 15 percent occupancy over 92 shows. These numbers indicate that the film is still performing well in the northern and western belts, where the horror-comedy genre traditionally finds a strong foothold. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) As of Day 45, the total India net collection for Bhooth Bangla stands at 179.35 Cr, with the total India gross reaching 212.48 Cr.

Combined, the total worldwide gross collection has reached 266.23 Cr.

While the film has climbed the charts significantly, catching up to the 288 Cr lifetime total of Housefull 5 appears out of reach at this stage of its theatrical run.The sustained demand for this specific horror-comedy blend has allowed the movie to maintain its theater count through seven weeks, marking a solid success and providing a notable entry in the actor's top-performing list since 2021.

Karuppu 3rd Weekend Box Office: Suriya Starrer Collects Rs. 16.44 Cr Gross; Enters Top 10 Highest Grossing Films in Tamil Nadu

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Suriya's latest film, Karuppu, is maintaining its momentum as it moves into the third week of its theatrical run. The film offers a raw, grounded narrative that relies heavily on a high-intensity performance by Suriya, moving away from typical commercial tropes to deliver something that feels visceral. This authenticity has clearly resonated with the audience, as the occupancy rates throughout the third weekend remained consistently high, particularly in urban centers where the gritty atmosphere of the plot has found a dedicated following. It is not just about the star power anymore; the plot's ability to keep viewers engaged for seventeen days straight is the real driver behind these numbers. Looking at the specific data, the third Friday or Day 15 saw a net collection of 3.25 Cr. While this represented a 34.3 percent drop from the previous day's 4.95 Cr, the film was still playing across 3,024 shows with an overall occupancy of 22.9 percent. Regional performance on Friday remained steady, with Chennai maintaining 455 shows at a 32.8 percent occupancy rate, peaking at 43 percent during night screenings. Coimbatore followed with 157 shows at 27.8 percent occupancy. In the Telugu states, Hyderabad managed 235 shows with a 12.3 percent occupancy, while Bengaluru held 234 shows at 10.5 percent. This solid footprint across major cities set the foundation for the significant surge that followed over the next two days. Saturday witnessed a massive turnaround as the collection jumped by 58.5 percent to reach 5.15 Cr net. The total number of shows increased to 3,292, and the overall occupancy rose to 29.1 percent. By the end of Day 16, the total India net collection had reached 176.55 Cr, while the worldwide gross climbed to 281.21 Cr. The overseas market contributed 2.00 Cr on this day alone, pushing the international total to 77.00 Cr. This momentum signaled that the movie was still the primary choice for cinema-goers despite being in its third week, with the audience volume showing a healthy trend that typically suggests long-term stability.

The Tamil version led the daily total with 5.20 Cr net from 2,353 shows at a 39 percent occupancy rate, while the Telugu version added 0.70 Cr from 974 shows. In national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film was a dominant force. On Sunday alone, these chains sold approximately 18,100 tickets, with PVR accounting for roughly 12,700 tickets, INOX for 4,600, and Cinepolis for 800.

The biggest contributor to the film's pre-release business is said to be its digital streaming rights. Reports indicate that the OTT rights have been sold for a whopping 85+ crore. In recent years, OTT deals have become a crucial revenue stream for big-budget Indian films, and Vishwanath And Sons appears to have secured one of the most notable digital agreements for a Suriya starrer. Apart from the digital rights, the film has reportedly fetched 12+ crore through its music rights, while the overseas distribution rights are said to have been sold for 15+ crore, indicating strong interest in international markets.

The numbers have already become a major talking point among trade observers, and if the film manages to generate strong theatrical revenues upon release, Vishwanath And Sons could emerge as a back-to-back major success for Suriya.

Blast Day 3 Box Office: Arjun Sarja Starrer Grosses Rs. 5.23 Cr Amid 111% Saturday Surge

BY CHRISTA LINCY

The action-drama genre in Tamil cinema has found a fresh pulse with Blast, a film that combines a high-stakes martial arts core with a grounded narrative about a family's survival against corporate greed. The story follows Rajaraman, Neelaveni, and their fearless daughter Nila, whose intervention in a local harassment case leads them into a dangerous confrontation with a violent sand mining baron, Varun. This battle of karate versus criminal syndicates has clearly piqued the audience's interest, further bolstered by the thunderous Tamil debut of music director Ravi Basrur, who brings his signature sonic weight to the project. As we head into the conclusion of the first weekend, Blast has witnessed an extraordinary surge in its trajectory. It appears that positive word of mouth is doing the heavy lifting, as the film has managed to see a notable surge in footfalls every single day of its opening run. On its third day, this momentum delivered a massive shot of oxygen to the box office, with a net collection of 4.55 crore. This represents a staggering 111.6 percent growth compared to Saturday’s 2.15 crore, proving that Sunday has been a complete game-changer. This push brings the total India net collection to 7.95 crore within just three days, with the film playing across 2,294 shows on Sunday alone. The worldwide picture looks equally healthy for a mid-budget actioner. While the India gross has reached 9.13 crore, the overseas market contributed a solid 2.00 crore on Sunday, taking the total international gross to 4.05 crore. This brings the overall worldwide gross tally to 13.18 crore. When you consider that the film has sustained itself across a total of 5,911 shows so far, it is evident that the moolah is coming in from multiple territories with consistent momentum. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Looking at the state-wise breakdown for Sunday, Tamil Nadu remains the primary engine, contributing 3.00 crore gross to the kitty. However, the film is finding traction in neighboring states as well, with Kerala pulling in 80 lakhs and the Telugu market (APTG) adding another 75 lakhs. Karnataka saw a gross of 64 lakhs, while the rest of India contributed 4 lakhs, bringing the single-day India gross for Sunday to 5.23 crore. The Telugu version is also holding its own, particularly in Hyderabad, where overall occupancy stood at 32.5 percent. The ground-level occupancy in Tamil Nadu is particularly impressive, indicating strong word-of-mouth. Chennai led the charts with a 64.8 percent overall occupancy, peaking at a massive 85 percent for the night shows. Coimbatore followed closely with 58.5 percent occupancy. Even in smaller Telugu centers like Vijayawada and Vizag, the film maintained steady occupancy levels between 17 and 20 percent. The footfalls are also reflected on digital platforms, with BookMyShow recording 152,890 tickets sold in the last 24 hours, bringing the platform's total to nearly 249,000 tickets. In the national chains, the film saw a significant volume of ticket sales as well. PVR saw approximately 12,000 tickets sold, while INOX and Cinepolis contributed roughly 3,500 and 1,700 tickets respectively. This brings the total ticket count in these three major chains to 17,200 for the day. For a film marking Ravi Basrur's entry into the Tamil market, the initial response suggests that the combination of gritty action and martial arts training has successfully landed with the mass audience.

The return of Georgekutty has clearly struck a chord with the audience, as Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 is currently showing the kind of box office dominance we usually associate with major festival releases. In just ten days, the film has managed to rewrite several record books, proving that the brand value of this franchise is arguably the strongest in Malayalam cinema today. It is not just about the local market either; the film is performing like a global juggernaut, comfortably crossing milestones in record time. On its second Saturday, the film witnessed a significant surge in momentum. The Day 10 collections stood at 5.10 crore, which is a healthy 18.6 percent jump from the 4.30 crore it earned on Friday. This late-week oxygen has pushed the total India net collection to 91.35 crore, while the domestic gross has officially breached the 100-crore mark, sitting at 106 crore. This makes Drishyam 3 Mohanlal's fourth film to enter the domestic 100-crore gross club, a feat very few actors in the industry can claim. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The story is even more impressive when you look at the worldwide picture. The overseas market contributed another 6 crore on Saturday, taking the total international gross to 113.75 crore. When we combine the domestic and international numbers, the worldwide gross collection has now soared to 219.75 crore. In just ten days of its run, the film has already climbed to the 6th position in the list of highest-grossing Malayalam films of all time in India. The sheer speed of this ascent is a clear indicator of the film's universal appeal. Check out the top five Malayalam films with the highest Malayalam net collections over their first ten days.

Meanwhile, in North America, the film is holding steady with a Friday gross of 34,000 dollars, taking its total in that territory to 1.83 million dollars. These numbers suggest a very long and profitable road ahead for the producers. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ground-level occupancy data further illustrates this success. In Kerala, Kochi remains the strongest performer with a staggering 56.8 percent occupancy, followed by Trivandrum at 33.5 percent. Even in non-Malayalam speaking regions like Bengaluru and Hyderabad, the film is attracting crowds with 25.5 percent and 16.5 percent occupancy respectively. This consistent interest across nearly 2,570 shows on Saturday alone is what is keeping the moolah flowing into the kitty. Looking at the ticket windows, the volume is quite substantial. On Saturday, BookMyShow recorded approximately 154,500 ticket sales, bringing the platform's total to a massive 3.47 million tickets for the entire run. The national chains are playing a significant role in this volume as well. On Saturday, PVR led the way with roughly 13,600 tickets, followed by INOX with 4,100 and Cinepolis with 3,300. In total, these three major chains moved about 21,000 tickets on the second Saturday. With the way the film is trending, it is safe to say that Georgekutty's latest secret is a blockbuster success.
