The box office saw a varied mix of releases this week, with films spanning languages and genres. However, the early numbers suggest a clear winner. While Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has opened strongly and continued to draw audiences on its second day, the other releases, including Prem Keetanu, Verity and Tom Cruise’s Digger, have registered considerably lower numbers in India.

Here’s a look at how the films performed on Day 2 and what the early trends indicate.

Drishyam 3: The Conclusion

Ajay Devgn-led Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has emerged as the clear frontrunner among this week’s releases. The final instalment of the franchise opened at around Rs 62 crore in India and collected Rs 53.50 crore on October 3, its second day, as per Sacnilk. While this represented a drop of roughly 14 per cent from its opening day, the film still maintained a strong pace.
According to Sacnilk, Drishyam 3 has collected Rs 115.50 crore in India net over two days and its worldwide gross has crossed Rs 177 crore.

Prem Keetanu

Veer Pahariya, Aafiya Syed and Aparshakti Khurana-starrer Prem Keetanu opened at Rs 0.50 crore in India on October 2. The film recorded a modest increase on Saturday, collecting an estimated Rs 0.35 crore, taking its India net collection to around Rs 0.85 crore.

Its gross currently stands at approximately Rs 1.01 crore.

The 30 per cent jump on Day 2 is a positive sign compared with its opening, but the film is still operating on a significantly smaller scale than Drishyam 3.

Verity vs Digger

Among the Hollywood releases, Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson’s Verity has emerged ahead of Tom Cruise’s Digger. In India, Verity opened at approximately Rs 1.89 crore and collected around Rs 1.61 crore on Day 2. Its India net collection stands at roughly Rs 3.50 crore, with the gross collection at around Rs 4.03 crore.

Verity has performed considerably better in the international market. The psychological thriller is estimated to have opened to around $15 million worldwide on Friday.

Tom Cruise’s Digger has had a much slower start, both in India and internationally. The film opened at approximately Rs 65 lakh in India and collected around Rs 45 lakh on Day 2, taking its India net collection to roughly Rs 1.10 crore and its India gross to around Rs 1.30 crore.

Current estimates suggest that the Tom Cruise-starrer is headed for an opening weekend of around $8 million in North America, which would make it his lowest opening weekend in 19 years for the actor. The last Tom Cruise film to open below $10 million in the market was 2007’s Lions for Lambs. Digger has also earned around $4 million from overseas markets.

With Sunday’s numbers still to come, the weekend numbers will offer a clearer picture of which films can sustain their initial momentum.
