Raja Shivaji Day 26 Box Office: India net reaches Rs. 92.90 Cr as a zero percent weekday drop fuels its marathon run

2026 is turning out to be a landmark year for Marathi cinema, showing a level of consistency and commercial muscle that we haven't seen in quite a while. It is not just about one-off hits anymore; the industry is producing films with incredible theatrical legs. We have seen projects like Deool Band 2 holding their ground, but Raja Shivaji is the one truly leading the charge, proving that regional epics can sustain interest deep into their fourth week.

As we look at the numbers for Day 26, which was its fourth Tuesday, Raja Shivaji is showing remarkable stability. Based on the latest data, the film collected a net of 0.45 Cr in India. What is particularly fascinating is that there was absolutely no drop compared to Monday's collection of 0.45 Cr. In the box office world, a zero percent drop on a weekday is a clear indicator of a loyal audience base that is still turning up to catch the film. This steady performance has now pushed the total India net collection to a strong 92.90 Cr.

The Marathi version continues to be the primary engine of growth, contributing 0.37 Cr net (0.42 Cr gross) from 566 shows on Tuesday. The occupancy levels in the core Marathi markets remain very healthy for a film in its fourth week. Mumbai recorded an overall occupancy of 35 percent, while Pune performed even better at 41.3 percent. If we look at the night shows, the numbers jumped significantly, with Pune hitting 57 percent and Mumbai reaching 52 percent capacity. The Hindi version added another 0.08 Cr net from 268 shows, with decent traction in Surat and Ahmedabad, which saw occupancies of 26 percent and 21.8 percent respectively.

The performance in national multiplex chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis confirms that the film is still a top choice for urban viewers. These chains contributed a total gross of 1.8 Lakhs from around 1,430 tickets sold on Tuesday. Specifically, INOX led the segment with a contribution of 0.88 Lakhs, while Cinepolis and PVR added 0.59 Lakhs and 0.33 Lakhs respectively. These figures highlight how well the film is holding its own on premium screens even after 87,098 cumulative shows.

The digital footprint on BookMyShow actually showed a slight uptick in interest. On Monday, the platform saw 15.51K tickets booked, which grew to 15.72K on Tuesday. This brings the cumulative ticket sales on the platform to a staggering 25.36 Lakhs.

On the global stage, Raja Shivaji has officially crossed the 114 Crore gross milestone. With an India gross of 109.81 Cr and an overseas contribution of 4.22 Cr, the worldwide gross total now sits at 114.03 Cr. Having played across 87,098 shows since its release, the film has managed to balance domestic strength with a modest but present international footprint. As it inches closer to the 100 Crore net mark in India, it has already cemented itself as a genuine blockbuster for the Marathi industry in 2026.

Dhurandhar 2 Day 69 Box Office: Ranveer Singh's sequel records a 25% jump on its 10th Tuesday

BY CHRISTA LINCY

It is truly remarkable to see a film still finding fresh oxygen in its tenth week, but Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is doing exactly that. On its 69th day in theaters, the sequel managed to rake in a net of 0.15 Cr across India. While the number might seem small in isolation, it actually represents a 25 percent growth compared to the previous day's 0.12 Cr. For a movie to show an upward trend this late in its theatrical run is a testament to its incredible legs at the box office. With this latest addition to the kitty, the total India net collection has reached a staggering 1,147.85 Cr. Most of this moolah has come from the Hindi version, which alone has crossed the 1,000 Crore milestone, sitting at 1,079.31 Cr. The film has also seen healthy contributions from the South, particularly from the Telugu version, which netted 43.07 Cr. Overall, the India gross now stands at 1,373.73 Cr, and when you combine that with an overseas gross of 426.67 Cr, the film has officially breached the massive 1,800 Crore worldwide milestone. If you look at the occupancy levels for Day 69, the film is performing exceptionally well in specific pockets despite having only 246 shows left nationwide. Pune was the standout performer yesterday, recording a massive 66 percent overall occupancy, with afternoon shows even hitting 100 percent capacity. Mumbai also saw strong footfalls with 43 percent occupancy, including an evening peak of 91 percent. In the National Capital Region (NCR), which still holds the highest show count at 56, the occupancy stayed solid at 30.5 percent. It is clear that the core audience is still showing up to experience this spectacle on the big screen. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) National multiplex chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis show that the film added around 1.3 Lakhs to its gross through advance sales for the day. Specifically, PVR brought in approximately 61K, followed by INOX at 40K and Cinepolis at 31K. Total ticket sales across these chains for the day were around 780 tickets. These figures show that while the volume is low, the film is still maintaining its presence in premium screens even after 525,460 cumulative shows since its release. In total, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has cemented itself as an all-time blockbuster with worldwide collections of 1,800.40 Cr. The journey from its opening day to Day 69 has been record-breaking, and even as it nears the end of its theatrical journey, it continues to add those final bits of revenue to its legendary total. Logically, with new releases taking over most screens, the film is now making the most of its loyal urban fan base to finish its run on a high note.

Backed by high-octane action, patriotic themes, and a mass-heavy presentation, the 2025 film managed to create strong buzz during its theatrical run and continued to dominate conversations even after its digital release. Made on a grand scale and huge budget, Dhurandhar featured Ranveer Singh in one of his most intense action-oriented avatars. The film received appreciation for its raw action sequences and rooted narrative. The film is expected to register impressive television ratings, considering its strong theatrical popularity and fan following among mass audiences.

Released on December 5, 2025, Dhurandhar went on to gross over 1300 crores at the worldwide box office, before its sequel, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, scripted history by grossing over 1800 crores globally after its release on March 19.

Drishyam 3 Day 6 Box Office: Mohanlal's film becomes the second-fastest 50 Crore Kerala grosser, trailing only L2: Empuraan

Mohanlal is back in his most iconic role, and the box office numbers suggest that Drishyam 3 is finding plenty of oxygen to sustain its theatrical run. On its first Tuesday, which marks Day 6, the film collected a net of 6.45 Cr across India. This represents a logical 16.2 percent drop from Monday, which saw 7.70 Cr. While big-budget sequels often see a sharper decline after the opening weekend, this Tuesday collection indicates a steady hold for the film. With 4,668 shows running nationwide, the total India net collection has now reached a strong 68.60 Cr. The Malayalam version remains the heavy lifter, contributing 5.50 Cr to the Tuesday net. This performance has earned the film a spot among the elite performers in Mollywood history. While the film is performing well across all South Indian states, the core strength remains in its home territory. To give you some perspective on its domestic dominance, here is how the 6-day net collections for the Malayalam version compare with other recent blockbusters: Mollywood First 6 Days Highest Collection Movie (Net)RANKMOVIE NAMEFIRST 6 DAYS NET (MALAYALAM)1L2: Empuraan₹ 71.90 Cr2Drishyam 3 (Malayalam)₹ 59.05 Cr3Thudarum₹ 43.49 Cr4Vaazha 2: Biopic of a Billion Bros₹ 40.20 Cr5Aadujeevitham - The Goat Life₹ 34.77 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Kerala remains the primary engine for the film, contributing a gross of 50.95 Cr in just six days. This makes Drishyam 3 the second fastest film to hit the 50 Crore mark in the state, sitting just behind L2: Empuraan which reached the milestone in 5 days, and ahead of both Thudarum and Vaazha 2 which took 8 days. Karnataka has also added significant moolah to the kitty, crossing the 10 Crore milestone with a 10.28 Cr gross. With APTG bringing in 7.00 Cr and Tamil Nadu adding 6.35 Cr, the total India gross has reached a solid 79.62 Cr before completing its first week. Breaking into the second spot on the 6-day chart is a massive win for the franchise. However, if we look strictly at the first Tuesday earnings, the film faces stiff competition. With a net of 5.50 Cr for the Malayalam version on Tuesday, it currently sits at the fifth spot on the list of highest 1st Tuesday earners in Mollywood, trailing behind films like L2: Empuraan and Vaazha 2.

The night shows in these cities were particularly busy, peaking at 79 percent and 76 percent respectively. Trivandrum also saw a solid overall occupancy of 42.8 percent, with night shows climbing to 64 percent.

The Tamil version saw healthy traction in Chennai with a 30 percent overall occupancy, followed by Coimbatore at 25 percent. In the Telugu markets, Hyderabad and Vizag recorded occupancies of 13.3 percent and 12.5 percent, while the Kannada version saw a standout performance in Hubballi with 32.3 percent occupancy. National multiplex chains confirm that Drishyam 3 is currently the top-selling movie in that segment. On its first Tuesday, the film added approximately 32.7 Lakhs to its gross kitty from around 15,400 tickets sold. PVR was the primary driver here, contributing roughly 21.7 Lakhs, while INOX and Cinepolis added approximately 5.6 Lakhs and 5.4 Lakhs respectively. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The ticket sales on BookMyShow further highlight the consistent interest. On Tuesday, the platform recorded 221.81K ticket sales, taking the total sales on the app to over 27.45 Lakhs. Since 2024, this puts Drishyam 3 at the fourth spot for highest 1st Tuesday sales on the platform, just behind Thudarum. On the global front, the film is raking in serious moolah. The overseas gross added another 6.00 Cr on Day 6, taking the total overseas kitty to 90.70 Cr. According to reports from Venky Box Office, the film earned 168K Dollars on Monday in North America, pushing its total there to 1.64 Million Dollars. Down under, the film's theatrical run is seeing massive traction in the Oceania region, with total earnings comfortably exceeding A$850K in Australia and over NZ$240K in New Zealand within its first six days.. With a total show count of 30,199 to date, Drishyam 3 is well on its way to setting new benchmarks for the Malayalam industry.

May 2026 Box Office Report: Regional Cinema Dominates With Kruppu, Drishyam 3, Raja Shivaji Amid Bollywood's Underwhelming Performance

BY SUNIT JANGIR

Mumbai, May 27 - May 2026 turned out to be one of the most successful months for the Indian box office, with at least three major theatrical wins across the film industry. While the Tamil and Malayalam film industries continued their solid run through Karuppu and Drishyam 3, respectively, the biggest surprise came from Marathi cinema as Deool Band 2 emerged as an unexpected blockbuster, amid the underperforming Bollywood titles. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Karuppu and Drishyam 3's Blockbuster Run Suriya's Karuppu turned out to be a massive commercial success for Tamil cinema. Directed by RJ Balaji, the action drama shattered every major career record for Suriya and maintained extraordinary momentum throughout the month. Released on May 15, the film has crossed 250 crores worldwide in just 12 days so far, also earning more than 2x of Suriya's previous biggest grosser, Singam 2. The film has performed exceptionally well in Tamil Nadu with 120+ crores gross so far, while also drawing strong support from the rest of the domestic and overseas audiences. Meanwhile, Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 once again showcased the power of one of Indian cinema's most celebrated thriller franchises. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the film opened to phenomenal numbers and continued its solid run across domestic and overseas markets despite mixed reception. Kerala led the charge on the domestic front, but the overseas market is once again proving to be a major contributor for a Malayalam title. In just 6 days so far, the film has minted around 170 crores worldwide, including around 90 crores overseas collection. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Marathi Cinema Wins Big With Raja Shivaji's and Deool Band 2 Marathi cinema has emerged as a major winner this month with the blockbuster run of Raja Shivaji, and an unexpected success in Deool Band 2. Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh, Raja Shivaji scripted history by emerging as the highest-grossing Marathi film of all-time, beating Sairat's 110 crores record, which stood for nearly 10 years. Released on May 1st, the historical epic has grossed over 114 crores worldwide in 26 days so far. Meanwhile, devotional drama, Deool Band 2, scored the limelight by delivering a surprise success. After a 2.90 crore gross opening, the film witnessed solid growth over the weekend due to positive word of mouth and showed remarkable consistency on weekdays. In 6 days so far, the film has minted 26.50 crores gross, and is marching towards 50 crores, which is a blockbuster for the film of its scale. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Bollywood Underperforms With Pati Patni Aur Woh Do and Chand Mera Dil In contrast to the regional dominance, May 2026 also witnessed disappointments in Hindi cinema. Films like Pati Patni Aur Woh Do and Chand Mera Dil failed to generate the theatrical momentum the industry had expected. Pati Patni Aur Woh Do struggled to attract audiences despite being a sequel. The film opened to underwhelming occupancies and failed to show significant growth over the weekend. While PPAWD has managed to cross 50 crores worldwide, the overall total remains low considering the scale and expectations. Similarly, romantic drama Chand Mera Dil also failed to capitalise on its urban appeal and music-driven promotions. After failing to score a decent opening, the film hasn't shown the momentum required for a rebound. It has grossed around 21 crores so far in 5 days, which is a poor collection.

Bhooth Bangla Day 40 Box Office: Collecting Rs. 0.65 Cr net as worldwide gross reaches Rs. 261.70 Cr

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Bhooth Bangla is maintaining a steady pace as it completes its sixth week in theaters. On its 40th day, the film added 0.65 Cr net to its kitty across India, marking a 30 percent growth from the previous day’s 0.50 Cr. Even with new competition like Drishyam 3 taking up significant screen space, the movie is finding enough oxygen to keep its theatrical run alive during the weekdays. With this latest addition to the kitty, the total India net collection now stands at a solid 175.50 Cr. When we look at the gross numbers, the film has crossed the 200 Crore mark domestically, sitting at 207.95 Cr. The global story is equally impressive for a mid-budget horror-comedy; with an overseas contribution of 53.75 Cr, the worldwide gross has now touched 261.70 Cr. Navigating through 40 days of theatrical run is no small feat, and the film has managed to sustain itself across a total of 228,679 shows since its release. To give you some context on where this performance ranks in the history of Bollywood, Bhooth Bangla has officially cracked the Top 10 list for the highest Day 40 collections. While it sits at the tenth spot with its 0.65 Cr, trailing just slightly behind Drishyam 2, which earned 0.70 Cr on the same day, finding its name alongside biggies like Dhurandhar and its sequel is a massive win for the makers. It shows that the film has successfully transitioned from a hit to a genuine long-term player in the market.

With 200 shows still running in the region, it recorded an overall occupancy of 28.5 percent. The night shows in NCR were particularly busy, hitting a peak of 39 percent. Other cities like Ahmedabad and Lucknow also showed decent footfalls with occupancies of 15.3 percent and 16.8 percent respectively. This indicates that while the show count has naturally decreased to 1,597 shows nationwide, the seats are still being filled at a healthy rate. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In terms of early trends from the big national multiplex chains, the film added around 3 Lakhs to its gross through advance sales for Day 40. PVR led the way with 1.15 Lakhs, followed closely by INOX at 1.02 Lakhs, and Cinepolis contributing 83.36K. These numbers might seem small compared to the opening weekend, but for a film in its sixth week, these are vital signs that the audience hasn't completely moved on yet. The digital footprint on BookMyShow remains quite active as well. On this sixth Tuesday, the platform recorded 16.08K ticket sales for the film. This brings the cumulative ticket sales on the platform to a staggering 32.86 Lakhs. It is clear that the word-of-mouth has carried this film far beyond its initial buzz. While newer biggies are grabbing the lion's share of the screens, Bhooth Bangla is content with its slice of the pie, continuing to add to its lifetime total with surprising consistency.
