Vikrant Massey’s latest film, The Sabarmati Report, has been making waves at the box office, showcasing a steady performance despite facing some challenges. As of November 30, on its 3rd Saturday, the film’s net collection in India reached ₹27.52 crores, inching closer to the coveted ₹30 crore mark. However, the path to budget recovery remains uncertain.
Box Office Performance Overview
Day 16 Highlights:
- Collection: On its 3rd Saturday, the film earned ₹1.95 crores, marking a slight drop of 2.08% from the previous day’s collection of ₹2.05 crores.
- Total Collection: The cumulative net collection stands at ₹27.52 crores after 16 days of release.
Weekly Breakdown:
- Week 1: ₹12.16 crores
- Week 2: ₹11.36 crores
- Day 16 (3rd Saturday): ₹1.95 crores
This steady performance can be attributed to various factors, including the positive response from audiences and strategic marketing efforts.
Budget Recovery Challenges
Despite its commendable box office run, The Sabarmati Report faces significant hurdles in recovering its budget, which is estimated at ₹50 crores. Currently, it has only managed to recoup about 55% of its production costs. Industry experts suggest that while crossing the ₹30 crore threshold is possible, achieving full budget recovery appears increasingly difficult with the impending release of major films like Pushpa 2, which could divert audience attention.
Future Prospects
As the film continues its run in theaters, it remains to be seen how it will fare against upcoming releases. The next week will be critical for The Sabarmati Report, as it competes for screens and audience interest amidst a crowded box office landscape.
Conclusion
In summary, while The Sabarmati Report has shown resilience at the box office with steady collections nearing ₹30 crores, the challenge of recovering its full budget looms large. With only a few days left before more significant films enter the fray, the coming week will be pivotal for this political thriller starring Vikrant Massey, Raashi Khanna, and Ridhi Dogra.
