New Delhi: Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3 continued its successful theatrical run on the second weekend, registering a rise in collections on Saturday. After opening strongly and witnessing a decline during the weekdays, the crime thriller has crossed Rs 285 crore in India net collections and is moving closer to the Rs 300 crore milestone.
According to the latest figures reported by Sacnilk, the film’s ninth-day earnings have also taken it past Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, making Drishyam 3 Ajay Devgn’s highest-grossing film based on India net collections.
Drishyam 3 Box Office Collection Day 9
Drishyam 3 earned Rs 26.50 crore on its ninth day in theatres, which was the second Saturday. This increase in weekend collections pushed its total India net earnings to Rs 286.50 crore.
The film had generated considerable interest before its release. Advance bookings for Drishyam The Conclusion opened on September 27 and reportedly generated Rs 27 crore ahead of its theatrical debut.
The thriller began its box office journey with Rs 66.75 crore in India net collections on the opening day. This gave it the third-biggest opening for a Hindi film and the biggest opening of Ajay Devgn’s career.
Collections remained strong over the first weekend. The film earned Rs 53.50 crore on its first Saturday before reaching Rs 61 crore on Sunday. However, earnings dropped to Rs 21 crore on Monday. Despite the decline, the film maintained its run through the remainder of the opening week, taking its first-week total to Rs 245.50 crore.
With Rs 26.50 crore added on the second Saturday, the film has moved closer to the Rs 300 crore mark. Its performance over the coming weekend will be important as its theatrical run continues.
Drishyam 3 Surpasses Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior
The latest box office figures have helped Drishyam 3 overtake Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior in Ajay Devgn’s India net collection record.
Released in 2020, the historical drama had collected Rs 279.59 crore net in India, making it the actor’s previous highest-grossing film. With its current total reaching Rs 286.50 crore, Drishyam 3 has moved beyond that figure and taken the top position among Devgn’s films.
The achievement adds another milestone to the crime thriller’s theatrical performance, which has been supported by a strong opening and renewed growth over its second weekend.
