The collections of Shaitaan superseded Drishyam 2, although it looked unlikely going by the way the advance bookings were going. Shaitaan has got a solid foundation to build upon and even a normal trend from here should see the film through.
Shaitaan Has Opened To A Very Good Opening Of Around Rs 15 Crores At The Box Office
Shaitaan netted around Rs 8.30 crores from the top national chains like PVRInox and Cinepolis and these chains contributed around 55-57 percent of the film's collections. The Mahashivratri holiday helped the film get some strong walk-ups, to the point that it actually could cross Drishyam 2 although the tickets of Drishyam 2 sold in advance were around 50 percent higher.
Shaitaan Looks To Nett Rs 50 Crores In Its Opening Weekend In India
Since Friday was a part-holiday, the growth on Saturday shall be muted. At present, a Rs 50 crore opening weekend seems to be in contention for the Ajay Devgn led supernatural-thriller. A Rs 50 crore opening weekend automatically means that the movie hitting Rs 100 crores nett domestically is a foregone conclusion. The target for Shaitaan infact would be to get as close to Rs 150 crores as possible. To hit Rs 150 crores, it will not just have to have a strong Monday hold but also brave competition from Yodha the coming week.
Shaitaan Is A Money-Spinner For Its Producers
Shaitaan is a financially safe venture with producers already sitting at huge table profits. The worldwide theatrical share, clubbed with surplus non-theatrical revenue will be shared between Ajay Devgn and the producers in their pre-decided ratio.
