Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran’s crime thriller Daayra continued to struggle at the box office on its first Sunday. Despite the weekend, the Meghna Gulzar directorial failed to record any growth and earned an estimated ₹1.75 crore net in India on Day 3.
Released in theatres on September 18, Daayra has had a slow start at the domestic box office. The film is also facing competition from Kunal Kemmu’s Vibe, which released on the same day.
Daayra Box Office Collection Day 3
According to Sacnilk, Daayra collected an estimated ₹1.75 crore net in India on Day 3 across 1,839 shows.
Interestingly, the film’s Day 3 collection was identical to its Day 2 earnings. This means the crime thriller did not see the expected Sunday growth despite entering its first weekend.
With the latest figures, Daayra has collected approximately ₹4.50 crore net in India in its first three days. Its India gross collection stands at around ₹5.40 crore.
Daayra Box Office Collection: Day-Wise
The film opened to approximately ₹90 lakh net on Day 1. Its collection increased to around ₹1.75 crore on Day 2, but the momentum did not improve further on Sunday.
| Day | India Net Collection |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | ₹90 lakh |
| Day 2 | ₹1.75 crore |
| Day 3 | ₹1.75 crore |
| Total | ₹4.50 crore |
The figures are estimated and may change once final numbers are reported.
Daayra Faces Competition From Vibe
Daayra has also faced competition from Kunal Kemmu’s Vibe, which arrived in theatres on the same day.
The two films belong to different genres, with Daayra being a crime thriller while Vibe is positioned as a comedy-drama. Both films have been competing for audiences during the same opening weekend.
The clash has made the opening weekend particularly important for both releases as they attempt to build momentum in theatres.
Daayra Budget
Reports have suggested that Daayra has been made on a budget of around ₹55 crore. However, the figure has not been officially confirmed by the makers and should therefore be treated as an estimate.
With approximately ₹4.50 crore net earned in India after three days, the film still has a considerable gap to cover if the reported budget figure is accurate.
Kareena Kapoor Khan And Prithviraj Sukumaran Lead The Film
Daayra features Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran in the lead roles. The film is directed by Meghna Gulzar and also features Jitendra Joshi, Kshitee Jog, Kanwaljeet Singh, Sandeep Kulkarni and Trupti Khamkar in supporting roles.
The film draws from real events and explores themes surrounding crime, justice and the consequences of violence. Its central premise gives the narrative a serious and socially relevant tone.
Daayra’s Weekend Performance
The first Sunday was expected to provide a boost to Daayra‘s box office numbers. However, the film’s collection remained unchanged from Saturday at ₹1.75 crore.
After three days, the film’s total India net collection stands at approximately ₹4.50 crore.
The coming weekdays will now determine whether Daayra can maintain its theatrical run and build on its weekend total.
