Shaitaan Box Office: Ajay Devgn starrer sees huge growth again on Saturday, reaches almost Rs. 125 crores

As was the case last weekend as well, Shaitaan saw huge growth all over again on Saturday. With this being a set film in theatres, there is ready audience waiting for it weekend after weekend, and that was on full display on Saturday as well when Rs. 5 crores* came in all over again. This is really good growth over Rs. 2.85 crores* that the film had collected on Friday and with Rs. 5 crores mark crossed so comfortably, it shows a lot about the credibility that the supernatural drama thriller has gained so far ever since its release.

The film is doing quite well everywhere, be it A, B or C centres, and single screens or multiplexes. The showcasing of the film has significantly come down when compared to its opening day due to release of half a dozen other new releases from Bollywood as well as Hollywood. Still, the footfalls are rather impressive, which is resulting in capacity occupancy at number of centres. Quite a few shows were going houseful (or almost houseful) on Saturday and today that should be the case all over again, especially in later afternoon and evening shows.

Shaitaan currently stands at Rs. 124.50 crores* and that’s a really good score for a film that has been made at a controlled budget. Yes, there is Ajay Devgn leading the show with R Madhavan in there in the title role. Still, Shaitaan was a quickie with a bungalow as the key shooting location, which means spends were limited. Against that, the kind of numbers which have come in just from theatrical business (India and overseas) is good enough for the recovery, and the additional moolah which has come from satellite, OTT, music etc. is an added bonus.

*Estimates. Final numbers awaited

Note: All collections as per production and distribution sources
