Dacoit A Love Story, starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur, added Rs. 0.50 crore to its total on its 2nd Monday. This marks a drop of 45 per cent from Friday and an 83 per cent fall compared to last Monday. After 11 days in theatres, the film’s total collection stands at Rs. 38.50 crore.
The film started with a decent opening but could not maintain steady earnings over the following days. Based on its current trend, it is expected to cross the Rs. 409 crore mark and then move toward its final total. However, trade estimates suggest that it will likely finish its run under the Rs. 45 crore gross mark.
The film is now facing a slowdown at the box office and may not continue in theatres for much longer. One of the key reasons for its performance is its average response from audiences. A stronger positive reception might have helped the film sustain better numbers.
Directed as a thriller with action and drama, the film features a supporting cast that includes Anurag Kashyap, Prakash Raj, Sunil, Atul Kulkarni, Zayn Marie Khan, and Kamakshi Bhaskarla.
Here is the day wise box office collection of the film:
Day 1 Rs. 8.00 crore
Day 2 Rs. 8.50 crore
Day 3 Rs. 7.75 crore
Day 4 Rs. 3.00 crore
Day 5 Rs. 3.25 crore
Day 6 Rs. 2.00 crore
Day 7 Rs. 1.50 crore
Day 8 Rs. 0.90 crore
Day 9 Rs. 1.50 crore
Day 10 Rs. 1.60 crore
Day 11 Rs. 0.50 crore est
Total Rs. 38.50 crore
Overall, the film had a strong start but could not hold its momentum, leading to a lower than expected box office outcome.
