New Delhi:
Sunny Deol’s Jaat has crossed the ₹15 crore mark at the box office in just two days of its release. On its first Saturday, the action-packed thriller raked in ₹7 crore through ticket windows, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. The film recorded an overall 11.19% Hindi occupancy on April 11. With this, Jaat has achieved a domestic total of ₹16.5 crore in just two days.
On Friday, film critic Taran Adarsh posted an elaborate note on X (formerly Twitter) to share the opening day box office figures of Jaat.
He wrote, “#Jaat picked up momentum with each passing hour – exceeding industry expectations that had pegged its Thursday opening at around ₹ 7 cr. Released on a Thursday to coincide with the partial #MahavirJayanti holiday, #Jaat recorded low advance bookings – primarily because ticket sales only opened a day earlier, on Wednesday.”
“However, strong spot bookings, particularly in mass belts, turned the tide… While urban centres reported low occupancy, #Jaat witnessed excellent footfalls across single screens in mass circuits. There’s potential for single screens to perform much better, and if multiplexes beyond the metros also come on board, #Jaat could be well on its way to a strong lifetime total,” Taran Adarsh added.
Mentioning figures, the trade analyst wrote, “A decline on Friday cannot be ruled out [working day], but the #Baisakhi weekend is expected to boost footfalls significantly on Saturday and Sunday. With Monday also being a holiday [#AmbedkarJayanti], it’s important for #Jaat to post a healthy score over the extended weekend. #Jaat [Week 1] Thu ₹ 9.62 cr.”
