Second weekends are where films either fade or fly. Drishyam: The Conclusion has chosen to fly. Trade estimates suggest Ajay Devgn’s thriller is set to net over Rs 25 crore on its second Saturday, a leap that has the industry buzzing.
The Saturday Surge
According to Pinkvilla’s trade estimates, Saturday’s business is up roughly 75 to 80 per cent from Friday. That’s a big climb for a film already in its second week, and it puts the two-day second-week total at around Rs 39 crore nett.
Drishyam The Conclusion: Box Office Snapshot
| Metric | Figure |
|---|---|
| First week (India nett) | Rs 236 crore |
| First week (worldwide) | Rs 370 crore |
| 2nd Friday | Over Rs 250 crore total crossed |
| 2nd Saturday (estimate) | Over Rs 25 crore nett |
| 2nd week, two days | About Rs 39 crore nett |
| 2nd weekend projection | At least Rs 65 crore nett |
| Total by Sunday night | Over Rs 300 crore nett (projected) |
Why the Jump Matters?
The growth is coming from bigger metro centres, where weekend business tends to be heavier. Those centres had already risen 25 to 30 per cent on Friday and are reportedly up another 80 to 100 per cent on Saturday. That explains why weekdays dipped after a strong opening weekend and may do so again. In simple terms, it’s a weekend-heavy pattern, not a sign of trouble.
The Road to Rs 400 Crore
With Rs 300 crore nett expected on Sunday, the next milestone looks reachable. Trade analysis suggests the Rs 400 crore nett mark should be fairly straightforward. A key advantage is a practically open run until Diwali. A couple of releases are slated in the meantime, but neither is expected to pose major competition.
What Makes This Run Special?
Few sequels, let alone third chapters, grow this strongly in a second weekend. Ajay Devgn is leading a franchise that has built a loyal audience over the years, and the numbers suggest word of mouth is still working in its favour. If you haven’t watched it yet, a weekend show is likely to be busy, so book early.
