Drishyam Day 1 (Friday) Box Office Collections

Note: Viacom18 has not released the official figures of Drishyam. We have already dropped Viacom an email. This page will be updated as soon as we receive figures from them.

Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam has collected Rs 6 crore at the domestic box office on Day 1, including paid previews on Thursday. The film opened poorly on Friday, but showed decent growth in business towards the end of the day.

The remake of Mohanlal’s Malayalam classic with the same title, Drishyam is carrying positive word-of-mouth which should help the film show growth in business on Saturday and Sunday.

On Saturday morning, the average occupancy at centres that we tracked was higher than Friday. Night shows will be important, as the occupancy on Friday night was poor at multiplexes.

Salman’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan is also expected to show big growth in business today, so it’ll be interesting to see which film performs better at multiplexes.

Drishyam released on 2350 screens across India on Friday, after a limited release on 1100 screens on Thursday.

  • These type of films are not suppose to open huge.Even if Salman khan,the biggest superstar now had starred in it,it won’t open more than 14cr

  • I had high expectations going in, made even higher after hearing praise from the paid previous screening and Drishyam lived the expectations. I letf theatre satisfied.

    Drishyam was a traffic and very solid movie. I’m still blown away by how amazing the film was, from the amazing acting to the great directing, script and wonderful cinematography. It is one of the most compelling film I have seen this year so far and its my top 3 in 2015 ( after Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Baahubali).

    Ajay Devgn and Tabu were dynamite in their roles but I think Ajay was the star of the show. The other supporting cast were good.

    I loved how the movie didn’t need a ton of action to fill out a plot line, all the while, all 163 minutes were necessary for the movie. That being said, I didn’t find it flawless, the first half was a bit sluggish but the second half makes you sit at the edge of your seat, I never once looked at me watch and refused to go refill my popcorn!

    Overall, Drishyam is a solid mystery/ suspense thriller, which keeps you guess up until the very end.

    Its must see and I Recommend it.

    I will go 4/5.

  • flop.bcoz after eid diwali chirstmas which movie releases without any national holiday is gonna flop.last two year have confirmed that.max. 45cr-50cr

    Hatsoff to these two megastars, consistently giving highest grosser of the year.
    Actors like Saif and Shahrukh tried their luck, but were too small to give highest grosser.

  • Piku collected 5.2 crore from 1300 screens on its opening day. That means Ajay is smaller star than deepika.

  • Max 75 crore , sad for bb for not crossing pk but anyway waiting for strome in the form of #Brothers

  • The original Drishyam was the biggest hit of Tamil cinema when it released. With strong WOM, the Ajay Devgn starrer may also cross 100 crores, as 90% of Hindi audiences may have never seen original Tamil version. Good to see Ajay back to doing intense roles.

  • 6crs including paid preview!!
    that means around 5.5crs on Friday,similar to Bombay Velvet which was carrying so much negativity while Drishyam got positive reviews..

    Any comments Ajay fans who bash Akki??

  • bajrangi bhaijaan has shown huge jump everywhere i think today will be 8 tomorrow will be 10 lets anyway we are super happy it will cross 300cr on monday.it is historic considering so much barriers ,only megastar Salman can do this

  • 6cr is a start so nothing to fear as it should grow but imo its not that great a movie.

    Wasnt impresssed by it n was way too long.

  • 1st day collections aren’t great but still the positive word of mouth would ensure it recovers all its cost and emerge a clean hit.

  • With 2350 screens,opening is just 6cr.it proved ajay is the smallest star of bollywood even behind arjun kapoor,ROFL.

    you can buy 2 national awards,but you can’t deliver even a hit if you don’t have enough star power.and as ajay is the most disaster giving star in Bollywood and the only actor whose success is not even half of his wife KAJOL.if anything in this whole world can be more shameful fact other than this,than kindly tell me.Need I still have to tell shame on koyla fans,ROFL.

  • Joker released 3years ago,with Akki dissociating himself from the film n promotional activities and with negativity collected 5crs on day 1,just 50 lakhs less than Drishyam and that too 3yrs ago when ticket prices were less.

  • With 2350 screens,opening is just 6cr.it proved ajay is the smallest star of bollywood even behind arjun kapoor,ROFL.

    you can buy 2 national awards,but you can’t deliver even a hit if you don’t have enough star power.and as ajay is the most disaster giving star in Bollywood and the only actor whose success is not even half of his wife KAJOL.if anything in this whole world can be more shameful fact other than this,than kindly tell me.Need I still have to tell shame on koyla fans,ROFL.you insulted THE MEGALEGEND YASHJI’S CLASSIC JTHJ still you lost,now what excuse you’ll give for what is happening now?,ROFL.
