Kantara Chapter 1 started its third week with Rs. Around 9.25-9.50 crores tomorrow. The decline from the second Friday is about 65 percent, which is a bit high. Diwali releases led to a decline of over 70 percent in Tamil Nadu and Telugu states. Karnataka was better at 60 percent.
The Hindi sector was the best with a week-on-week decline of 50 per cent, which was the same as the previous day. Since there was no release in Hindi this week, the film could have seen some progress from Thursday. However, this was probably prevented due to pre-Diwali implications.
The box office collection of Kantara Chapter 1 in India is as follows:
| Day | Total |
|---|---|
| First week (8 days) | Rupee. 383.25 crores. |
| week two | Rupee. 168.50 crores. |
| second friday | Rupee. 9.50 crores. |
| Total | Rupee. 561.25 crores. |
The total box office earnings in India are now Rs. 561 crores. The third weekend is headed towards Rs. 42-45 crores, which would put it just under Rs. 600 crores till Sunday. In the context of challenging Chhaava as the highest-grossing film of the year, it would have been better to exceed Rs. 600 crores. This will require one rupee. 10-11 crores on Friday, but it remained a little less. Despite this, it is not very far and can be easily compensated during Diwali.
The regional details for Kantara Chapter 1 in India are as follows:
