HIT 3 Box Office Report (First 5 Days All Language)
Vishwak Sen’s HIT: The Third Case has generated considerable buzz since its release, and the box office numbers over the first five days show a promising yet slightly inconsistent performance. Let’s take a closer look at how the film has fared across India in various languages.
🔍 Opening Day: A Strong Debut
The film kicked off with a massive ₹21 crore on Day 1 (Thursday), led overwhelmingly by its Telugu version (₹20.25 Cr). The Hindi and Malayalam dubbed versions contributed marginally, with ₹0.25 Cr and ₹0.1 Cr respectively. The initial hype, combined with Vishwak Sen’s fan following and the success of the HIT franchise, played a big role in the strong opening.
📉 Day 2 Drop – Friday Slowdown
Day 2 saw a significant 50% drop, pulling in ₹10.5 crore. This kind of steep decline is not uncommon for mid-week releases, especially when the initial day captures most of the pre-release excitement. Telugu continued to dominate with ₹10 Cr, while other versions saw minor fluctuations.
📊 Steady Weekend Performance
The weekend showed slight day-over-day dips but remained fairly stable:
- Saturday: ₹10.4 Cr
- Sunday: ₹10.25 Cr
This stability suggests that word of mouth may have helped sustain interest, though it wasn’t enough to reignite the explosive opening.
📉 Monday Crash
As expected, collections dipped significantly on Monday, with ₹4.15 crore (early estimates). This indicates the film may have a typical theatrical trajectory, where a solid opening gives way to gradual declines unless strong reviews or external factors boost its run.
🧮 5-Day Total Box Office Collection
Day | Collection (₹ Cr) |
---|---|
Day 1 | 21.00 |
Day 2 | 10.50 |
Day 3 | 10.40 |
Day 4 | 10.25 |
Day 5 | 4.15 (est.) |
Total | 56.30 Cr |
🌍 Language-wise Reach
Unsurprisingly, Telugu is the primary driver of the film’s earnings, contributing well over 90% of the total. While the film did get a multi-language release, non-Telugu regions haven’t shown much traction yet.
🎬 Final Thoughts
HIT: The Third Case has had a solid run so far, especially in its home market. While the dip in weekday collections may be a concern, its 5-day total of ₹56.3 crore is commendable. The coming weekend will be critical in determining whether the film has long legs at the box office or settles into a modest success story.
