Sunday Box Office: Daayra, Vibe, Mirzapur and Hanuman Ansh Post Strong Earnings
Sunday, 20 September, proved a lively day for Indian cinemas as most releases saw an uptick in collections. While the overall market remained buoyant, two films – Hanuman Ansh and Mirzapur: The Movie – delivered particularly impressive figures.
Daayra
Karina Kapoor Khan’s drama Daayra, co‑starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, opened on 18 September. The opening was modest, with a first‑day net of around ₹1 crore. A modest rise on Saturday pushed the second‑day total to ₹1.75 crore. According to the early‑trend report from Saknalik, the film earned another ₹1.75 crore on its third day (Sunday), bringing its three‑day net to approximately ₹4.50 crore across India.
Vibe
Kunal Khemu’s thriller Vibe, featuring Preeti Jinta and Sparsh Srivastava, also debuted on 18 September. Its opening day net stood at ₹1.70 crore, followed by a stronger Saturday that lifted the second‑day total to ₹2.65 crore. The Saknalik report indicates a Sunday collection of ₹3 crore, raising the film’s three‑day net to about ₹7.45 crore nationwide.
Mirzapur: The Movie
Starring Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal and Divyenndu, Mirzapur: The Movie continued its steady run. After a robust Saturday that fetched ₹4.50 crore, the film recorded a ₹5 crore net on its 17th day – the third Sunday since release. Cumulative earnings after 17 days now total roughly ₹215.70 crore in India.
Hanuman Ansh
Even after more than six weeks in theatres, Hanuman Ansh remains a crowd‑puller. The film’s seventh Saturday saw a dramatic surge, and by its 44th day it had amassed ₹9.75 crore. Saknalik’s early‑trend data shows that on the 45th day – the seventh Sunday – the film added ₹13.75 crore, taking its 45‑day net to about ₹271.88 crore across the country.
