Box Office: Adipurush Records A Very Low Second Week

Mumbai, June 30 - Director Om Raut's magnum opus "Adipurush", which was one of the most hyped films before release, has turned out to be an epic disappointment at the box office after it fell badly in the second week. ## The Prabhas-fronted film recorded a historic fall of over 90% in the second week and scored just approx. 22.50 crores net collection in all versions. The first-week collection of 260 crores net was itself underwhelming considering the excellent opening weekend of 221 crores net. ## The total net collection of the film currently stands at a little over 282 crores (333 crores gross) and it is likely to finish its run under 300 crores net which is disappointing. The collection of Hindi versions is approx. 145 crores net, followed by the Telugu version with approx. 130 crores. The other versions have contributed around 7 crores net. ## "Adipurush" also couldn't hold well at the overseas box office and has grossed approx. 54 crores so far. This takes the total worldwide gross collection of the movie to approx. 387 crores in two weeks. The movie has some competition going forward which could further make it difficult for the film to sustain. The lifetime collection is heading for a 400-415 crore finish. ## Check out detailed collection of Adipurush here## Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' and 'Carry On Jatta 3' Opening Day/First Thursday Early Estimates

Mumbai, June 29 - Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani's musical romantic drama film "Satyaprem Ki Katha" has been released today on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, and as expected, it has taken a good start at the box office. ## The movie had a slow start in the morning shows but picked up well throughout the day due to the Eid holiday, plus, positive word of mouth. As per the early estimates, SPK has scored 9-9.50 crores net on its first day and might go a little higher which remains to see. ## The opening day collections are strong in multiplex chains while single screens remain low, which was expected as it is more of multiplex friendly film rather mass friendly. The critics' reviews and audience word of mouth are positive for the film which should ensure a good opening weekend. ## Meanwhile, Gippy Grewal-fronted Punjabi comedy film "Carry On Jatta 3" has a record-breaking opening day. The movie shattered the opening day record for a Punjabi title by a long margin and has set new standards for upcoming movies. ## "Carry On Jatta 3" has scored an estimated 4.30 crores net on opening day, which is by far the biggest start for a Punjabi movie, besting Diljit Dosanjh and Neeru Bajwa's "Shadaa" which took the opening of 2.70 crores net in 2019. ## The movie gets the benefit of being the installment of the biggest Punjabi film franchise and the positive response further boosted its opening day collection. ## Stay tuned...

Satyaprem Ki Katha Opening Day Advance Booking: Good In National Multiplex, Low In Single Screens

Mumbai, June 29 - Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani's much-awaited musical romantic drama film "Satyaprem Ki Katha" hits the big screen today. Directed by Sameer Vidwans and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, SPKK had its special screening yesterday in which it received a good response. ## "Satyaprem Ki Katha" is one of the films that is aimed at multiple audiences and this was clearly visible in the screen sharing and the advance booking sales. The movie has been released on over 2000 screens in India, with the majority of screens allotted at national multiple chains. ## The movie scored a decent advance booking for the opening day with over 70K tickets sold (block seats excluded) which is still one of the highest for a Bollywood movie in 2023. However, the majority of opening-day pre-sales were recorded in multiplex chains while the same is low in single screens which was expected. ## As far as the opening day is concerned and given the advance booking trend, "Satyaprem Ki Katha" is looking to score between 7-9 crores. However, a double-digit start can not rule out if the audience's word of mouth is positive as this can bring single screens into the picture. ## Even if the movie fails to reach a double-digit opening, it can still be termed as good if it opens in the expected lines of 7-9 crores. The positive WOM and the lack of competition can ensure a healthy 4-day opening weekend for "SatyaPrem Ki Katha". ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Adipurush Sees An Epic Fall After Opening Weekend Wonder

Mumbai, June 22 - Director Om Raut's magnum opus Adipurush was one of the most-awaited films of the year and it proved with an excellent opening at the domestic box office. ## The effect of Ramayana, plus the star power of Prabhas worked wonders for the film in the opening weekend despite the negative word of mouth as the movie scored 261 crores gross in India. However, what happened next was unexpected as "Adipurush" slipped to a historic low after the opening weekend wonder. ## Despite the word of mouth being against the film, it was still expected to score at a decent level during the weekdays but it faced a near-complete rejection from the audiences. From Monday to Thursday, "Adipurush" grossed just around 46 crores domestically in all languages, for approx. 307 crores opening week domestic collection.## While the opening week numbers of "Adipurush" are big, the drastic fall during the weekdays has more or less sealed the fate of the film as it will be extremely tough to regain the momentum. The controversy around the movie is also not helping it either as there seems another big drop in its second Friday collections. ## The overseas collection of the film is around 51 crores in the first week, which takes its total worldwide gross collection to around 358 crores. ## Check out the detailed day-wise collection of Adipurush here. ## Stay tuned...
