The Story So Far
Add as a preferred source on Google The Akshay Kumar-Saif Ali Khan starrer Haiwaan was dropped with a lot of expectations due to its casting, thriller genre, four-day weekend in Maharashtra and Priyadarshan’s association as filmmaker. However, the opening was underwhelming and the movie never managed to pick up over the weekend, possibly due to poor word of mouth.
Competition from Mirzapur The movie and Hanuman Ansh may have also played a part. 2.79 crores on Day 1, which was below the expected Rs. On Saturday, the earnings dropped to Rs.
2.13 crores, which was a telling sign. The thriller fell further on Sunday, collecting a mere Rs. After such a turn over the weekend, it was evident that Haiwaan would fall below the Rs.
1 crore mark on the weekdays. And that’s exactly what happened. 47 lakhs on Wednesday and Rs.
As a result, its first-week collections stand at Rs. There was some hope that it would find an viewers in its second week, allowing its lifetime collections to at least cross the Rs. Sadly, that now seems highly unlikely.
On its second Friday, September 18, Haiwaan minted a shocking Rs. 66,838, sending shockwaves across the trade and industry. In other words, the movie crashed by a enormous 98.62% on its second Friday compared to its first Thursday.
