Shaitaan: The collaboration of Ajay Devgn, Jyothika, and R Madhavan in the supernatural thriller ”Shaitaan,” a Hindi adaptation of the 2023 Gujarati horror film ”Vash,” has been met with positive reception since its release on March 8. Garnering decent reviews from both audiences and critics, the film embarked on a strong start and maintained its momentum for nearly two weeks.
However, as competition intensified with the releases of ”Crew” and ”Godzilla X Kong,” ”Shaitaan” experienced a slight decline in its performance. The impact was further compounded as it faced off against ”Bade Miyan Chote Miyan” and ”Maidaan” on Wednesdays. Nevertheless, despite these challenges, the overall business of the film has been excellent, firmly establishing it as a super hit.
In its fourth week, ”Shaitaan” managed to gross ₹6.57 crore, contributing to its cumulative total of ₹144.29 crore in India. A breakdown of its performance over the weeks illustrates its consistent success:
- Week 1: ₹81.60 crore
- Week 2: ₹36.08 crore
- Week 3: ₹20.04 crore
- Week 4: ₹6.57 crore
With a total collection of ₹144.29 crore, ”Shaitaan” has maintained a strong presence at the Indian box office, solidifying its status as a commercially successful venture. Despite facing stiff competition and fluctuating trends, the film’s ability to captivate audiences and sustain its performance underscores its undeniable appeal and impact in the realm of supernatural thrillers.
