After a sluggish start, Ajay Devgn’s “Maidaan” experiences a notable upturn on Day 3, particularly in urban areas. Despite an initially low three-day total, the positive trend sparks optimism. With Day 3 surpassing Day 1 earnings, there’s hope for sustained growth.
The film earned 7.25 crore on its preview and Eid release day (Thursday), followed by a dip to 2.80 crore on Friday. However, Saturday saw a significant improvement, raking in 5.65 crore, totaling 15.70 crore in India.
Expectations are high for further growth in urban centres on Day 4 (Sunday), though the true litmus test awaits on Monday. The coming days will determine the film’s trajectory, and it’s a waiting game for now.
“Maidaan,” revolving around the golden era of Indian football, has faced challenges, but the recent surge offers a glimmer of hope. Devgn’s portrayal of football coach Syed Abdul Rahim has garnered praise, indicating potential for word-of-mouth promotion.
As the weekend progresses, box office analysts closely monitor the film’s performance, anticipating sustained momentum. While challenges lie ahead, the positive trajectory on Day 3 signals a possible turnaround for “Maidaan,” keeping audiences and industry insiders on edge as they await further developments.
