Singham Again Box Office Collection Day 5: Ajay Devgn and Deepika Padukone’s Film Crosses ₹150 Crore Despite Midweek Drop

Singham Again’s Box Office Journey: A Strong Start, but Midweek Dip

Singham Again kicked off with a massive opening over the festive weekend, quickly amassing a huge audience due to its star-studded cast, which includes Ajay Devgn, Deepika Padukone, and a cameo by Salman Khan. However, after the weekend, the film’s collections saw an expected decline. Monday’s earnings fell by 49.65%, and Tuesday showed another slight drop, with the film collecting ₹13.50 crore, as reported by industry tracker Sacnilk. Despite the midweek slowdown, the film’s five-day total in India stands at an impressive ₹153.25 crore.

Worldwide Success: Crossing ₹200 Crore

On the global front, Singham Again has performed even better. Within just four days, the film crossed the ₹200 crore mark worldwide, bringing in around ₹210 crore in total. This international success highlights the strong fanbase of Rohit Shetty’s cop universe, which has consistently drawn large audiences both domestically and overseas.

Singham Again vs. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3: A Festive Box Office Clash

The big-screen face-off between Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has been one of the season’s most talked-about box office battles. Kartik Aaryan’s horror-comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has been performing almost on par with Singham Again in daily collections, but it still trails by a considerable margin overall. On Tuesday, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 brought in ₹13 crore, pushing its total domestic collection to ₹137 crore. Late-night shows for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 have also helped boost its numbers, but Singham Again remains in the lead, albeit by a narrow margin.

Interestingly, the rivalry heated up before the films even hit theaters, with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’s makers reportedly filing a copyright strike against Singham Again’s title track, adding more drama to their box office clash.

Regional Performance and Audience Turnout

• Ahmedabad: With 749 shows, Singham Again saw the highest occupancy in Ahmedabad, reaching an impressive 49.75%.
• Mumbai: In Mumbai, the film held 984 shows with a respectable occupancy of 31.75%.
• Delhi NCR: Despite having the highest number of shows (1,149), Delhi NCR reported an occupancy of just 15%, indicating a slower response in this region.

In total, Singham Again was screened in over 5,200 theaters across India on its fifth day, showing the film’s wide reach and the substantial backing it received from exhibitors.

Singham Again: Setting New Records

Singham Again is making waves with record-breaking numbers for weekend openings. It currently holds the title of the second-highest weekend opener in India this year. The high turnout, especially for night shows, has contributed significantly to its early success. While the film’s occupancy rate on Tuesday averaged 26.79% across the country, it saw excellent turnouts in specific regions, especially during evening and late-night showings, where fan excitement was visibly high.

What’s Driving Singham Again’s Popularity?

1. Star Power: Ajay Devgn’s return as the fierce cop Singham, along with Deepika Padukone’s addition to the ensemble, has been a major draw.
2. Rohit Shetty’s Cop Universe: Known for his high-octane action sequences and larger-than-life storytelling, Rohit Shetty has built a loyal following with his cop-themed films.
3. Festival Weekend Release: The film’s release during a festive weekend helped boost its initial numbers, as families flocked to theaters to enjoy the film together.

How Long Can Singham Again Maintain Its Box Office Momentum?

Although Singham Again has shown remarkable resilience, the midweek dip could be an indicator of challenges in maintaining its pace. With competition from Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and potential upcoming releases, Singham Again may face hurdles in its quest to keep up with initial projections. However, if the film continues to draw evening crowds and sustains interest through word-of-mouth, it may still achieve long-term success.

Audience Reviews: Mixed but Positive Overall

Viewer responses to Singham Again have been mostly positive, with fans praising the action sequences, Ajay Devgn’s powerful portrayal, and the thrill of Rohit Shetty’s signature directing style. However, some critics and audiences noted that the storyline felt familiar, which could affect repeat viewership.
