Michael’ Extends Lead at India Box Office as ‘Ginny Weds Sunny 2’ Stalls on Day 2

Early trade tallies cite low buzz with sparse shows as the drag on the Hindi rom‑com.

Overview

  • Michael, which opened Friday, grew to about ₹5 crore in India on Saturday per Sacnilk data shared by Free Press Journal, taking its two‑day net to roughly ₹10.30 crore.
  • Ginny Weds Sunny 2 rose to about ₹0.87 crore on Saturday across roughly 1,195 shows, after an opening day near ₹30 lakh reported by trackers.
  • Trade trackers logged very low occupancy for the sequel on Friday, near 3.7% in morning shows and about 5% in the afternoon, pointing to weak walk‑ins and word of mouth.
  • Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla stayed the weekend’s top Hindi draw, earning ₹5.75 crore on its second Friday for ₹90.15 crore total, with trade expecting it to cross ₹100 crore in its second weekend.
  • Outlets say these figures are early trade estimates that can be revised, and several reports differ on the sequel’s Day 1 tally between ₹20 lakh and ₹30 lakh.
