Trend Analysis
The film opened well, collecting nearly ₹20 crore over its first weekend, indicating strong initial audience interest. However, a noticeable drop was seen from Monday onwards, with weekday collections declining steadily.
While Day 9 has shown some recovery, the growth remains limited, suggesting that the film is currently relying on incremental gains rather than a strong resurgence. Additionally, competition from new releases like Bhoot Bangla appears to have impacted its box office momentum.
