Deva Box Office: Initial Performance
Shahid Kapoor’s film Deva was released this week and showed strong earnings on its first day at the box office. The film’s collections saw a significant jump on the second day. While there were expectations for a massive opening, Deva‘s first-day collection was slightly lower than anticipated. The film, made on a budget of ₹85 crore, received mixed reviews upon release. On its first day, Deva recorded an India net collection of ₹5 crore 58 lakh, which is considered a decent opening, though a larger opening would have been better given the film’s budget. The second day saw improved occupancy in afternoon, evening, and night shows, attributed to Saturday being a half-holiday. Reports indicate that Deva is collecting approximately ₹6 crore 25 lakh in India net collection on its second day.
Deva Two-Day Total Collections
The total All India net collection for Deva over its first two days stands at ₹11 crore 83 lakh. The India gross collection for the film after two days is ₹14 crore 2 lakh. Deva was released on approximately 1500 screens in the overseas market, where it earned a total of ₹3 crore 23 lakh in two days. Globally, Deva‘s total box office collection after two days is ₹17 crore 25 lakh. For Deva to be declared a hit, it needs to achieve at least ₹150 crore in gross collection worldwide. To be a hit in India, a net collection of around ₹120 crore is required.
