The re-release of Sohum Shah’s Tumbbad is expected to be a huge success because it had a strong opening weekend grossing Rs 6.75 crore, which is double the 3-day total from the film’s original 2018 run. Since its debut six years ago, the movie has generated discussion on social media and developed a cult following among moviegoers. The adoration for the movie has resulted in a surge of people entering theatres.
A historic and game-changing achievement for the Sohum Shah flick, the re-release business might bring in more than Rs 20 crore. The film’s lifetime earnings had been Rs 12.00 crore. Naturally, Monday’s hold on receipts will paint a fuller picture, but the movie intends to run for a few weeks and is not aiming to end anytime soon.
Tumbbad has disproved the notion that musically complex films perform well when they are rereleased because its compelling narrative has attracted viewers.
The hilarious caper starring Akshay Kumar is holding up well in the box office and is still drawing crowds in urban areas into the fifth weekend. Even though the movie is still a failure, the pattern suggests that a small percentage of viewers appreciate and accept the Mudassar Aziz film. Estimates for Khel Khel Mein’s fifth weekend revenues indicate that it brought in Rs 1.25 crore, bringing its total to Rs 40.35 crore. Even while these are not great statistics for a celebrity like Akshay Kumar, they are still far better than what appeared after the film’s August 16 sales decline since it has managed to establish some kind of trend at the box office.
Due to the film’s significant obstacles on opening day and opening weekend, Khel Khel Mein’s hopes of a successful premiere were dashed. Naturally, the outcome would not have been significantly different, but a wider distribution could have helped the movie’s lifetime earnings in India reach the Rs 65 crore threshold.
