The Devil Wears Prada 2: Day-Wise India Box Office Collections

The Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway starrer added another Rs 1.50 crore to the tally on its Day 6 (Wednesday), taking the total cume slightly over the Rs 20 crore gross at the Indian box office. The movie is looking to wind up its first week at Rs 22 crore or so, with a good spike expected on its second weekend.

A Rs 15.15 crore opening weekend — led by a strong Rs 5 crore Saturday — is a healthy platform launch for a non-franchise Hollywood drama in India. The steady weekday hold signals that this film is drawing an audience that actually wants to be there, not just opening-weekend impulse viewers.

The Devil Wears Prada 2: Full Cast at a Glance

Besides the leading cast of Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway, the film also stars Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak, Conrad Ricamora, Tracie Thoms, and Tibor Feldman.

That ensemble alone explains a large chunk of the film’s strong opening. This is not a sequel that assembled a diluted cast — it expanded in nearly every direction.

What Lies Ahead — and the Bigger Picture

If it maintains a good run ahead, it will emerge as a Clean Hit venture at the box office. Based on current trends, it should overtake Lee Cronin’s The Mummy‘s lifetime cume. Whether it will also surpass Michael will be an interesting watch.

And then there’s the broader story that The Devil Wears Prada 2 is now part of. Hollywood movies are having a great year in India, with three back-to-back successes — Project Hail Mary, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, and Michael. The Devil Wears Prada 2 is likely to be the fourth Hollywood success in India this year. Roonby

Four Hollywood hits in India without a single superhero film among them — that is a genuine shift in how Indian audiences are consuming Western cinema in 2026.
