Well, well, well! Bollywood finally has a reason to pop the champagne. After a dry spell, the box office cash register is ringing again, and it’s all thanks to Bad Newz. For the past few months, we’ve been treated to a buffet of films that were more of a *meh* than a *wow*. But just when we were about to lose all hope, *Bad Newz* swoops in to save the day. And boy, did it bring in the moolah!
Starting with a solid Rs. 8.62 crores on Friday, the film saw a *cash explosion* over the weekend. Saturday collections jumped to Rs. 10.55 crores, and by Sunday, it raked in another Rs. 11.45 crores. That’s right, folks, the numbers were climbing faster than a cat up a tree! The weekdays saw a steady stream of Rs. 3-4 crores, though Thursday dipped a bit to Rs. 2.75 crores. But hey, who’s complaining? With such consistent numbers, the first week ended on a high note, making it one of 2024’s best weeks so far.
Currently, the film stands tall at Rs. 44.12 crores. Not too shabby, eh? Directed by Dharma Productions on a controlled budget, Bad Newz is already in profit territory just from its theatrical run. And let’s not forget the extra *ka-ching* from OTT, satellite, music, and other rights. As if that wasn’t enough, this film has now nabbed the third spot in Vicky Kaushal’s career for highest first-week collections, just behind Uri – The Surgical Strike and Raazi.
Note: All collections as per various box office sources.
