The last two months of 2022 saw the release of multiple films, which have continued to run at the box-office for weeks. While some held on at lower levels, some proved to be box office monsters. The Hollywood Biggie, Avatar 2 dominated the closing two months of 2022, Bollywood too got some redemption due to the release of Ajay Devgn led Drishyam 2. The film released on November 18, and is continuing with it’s strong run at the box office in its’ seventh week too.

The total collection of the Abhishek Pathak directorial stands at Rs 228 crore, and the film is headed towards a lifetime total of Rs 235 crore nett. The All India Gross of Drishyam 2 will be in the range of Rs 285 crore, falling a little short of the coveted Rs 300 crore number, but none the less, these are phenomenal numbers for a film in the thriller genre. Drishyam 2 has emerged the highest grossing film till date in the thriller genre, and the second highest grosser of Ajay Devgn’s career after Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. On the footfalls front, Drishyam 2 is headed to end it’s run with approx. 1.50 crore footfalls i.e. 1.50 crore people watched the tale of Vijay Salgaonkar and family on the big screen.

Decoding Bhediya Box Office Collection

The second in the span is the Varun Dhawan led Bhediya co-starring Kriti Sanon. The Amar Kaushik directorial released on November 25, and opened to a slow response in the Rs 6.60 crore range. However, the film sustained decent in the week 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, taking the lifetime collections in the north of Rs 60 crore. The film managed to do 9.5x the opening day, with some collections after the opening week, indicating a bit of acceptance in a section of audience. While Bhediya far off from being a success, it has ended up being a below average grosser at the domestic box office. The all India nett of Bhediya stands at Rs 64 crore (Hindi: 60 crore), with an all-India gross in the vicinity of Rs 78 crore. On the footfalls front, approximately 36 lakh people watched the creature comedy on the big screen. While the final total continues to be below the expectations, given how the year has been, it deserves a mention to avert the flop/disaster tag at the box office.
