Trade trackers say the ROI target for a hit verdict now looks out of reach.

Overview

  • The sequel cleared the Rs 50 crore net mark on day 19, with Koimoi estimating Rs 50.03 crore and Bollywood Life citing about Rs 50.37 crore alongside 55,927 shows.
  • Collections were boosted on day 19 by discounted Blockbuster Tuesday pricing, with Koimoi reporting Rs 1.63 crore, up roughly 44% from day 18.
  • Day 20 slipped to an estimated Rs 68 lakh as ‘Dhurandhar 2’ previews reduced show counts, taking the running India net to about Rs 50.66 crore.
  • Reported totals vary across trackers, with Sacnilk and Koimoi placing the 18-day net near Rs 48.86 crore while Pinkvilla listed roughly Rs 40 crore.
  • With a reported Rs 28 crore budget and a 56 crore net needed for a ‘hit’ under Koimoi’s yardstick, the film holds a ‘Plus’ verdict and is now projected to fall short.
