The new release “HanuMan” has shown a remarkable upsurge in its box office collection, registering an 88.37% increase on its second day, Saturday. This surge is largely attributed to the film’s popularity in mass pockets, propelling its business forward.
The positive word of mouth is expected to boost its Sunday collections even further, with predictions suggesting that the film will easily surpass the ₹10 crore mark in its opening weekend. The film started with ₹2.15 crore on Friday and jumped to ₹4.05 crore on Saturday, bringing the total to ₹6.20 crore.
Advantageous Market Conditions
One of the key factors aiding “HanuMan’s” success is the current lack of competition in its dominant markets. This advantage is pivotal in driving its business. Furthermore, the absence of any major releases until “Fighter” on January 25th is likely to help “HanuMan” solidify its position at the box office.
Strong Performance in Northern India
The Telugu version of “HanuMan” is also performing well in North India, an encouraging sign for regional cinema. The film earned ₹24 lakhs on Friday and saw a significant increase to ₹40 lakhs on Saturday, totaling ₹64 lakhs. This figure is especially noteworthy considering the language barrier, highlighting the film’s universal appeal and strong storytelling.
“HanuMan’s” robust opening weekend is a testament to its engaging content and strategic release timing. With minimal competition and glowing word-of-mouth, the film is well-positioned to maintain its momentum and achieve notable success at the box office.
