Khel Khel Mein box office collection: Despite opening day's drop, Akshay Kumar's film earns Rs 13.95 crore net in India in four days

Khel Khel Mein featuring Akshay Kumar and Taapsee Pannu has managed to capture attention at the box office, earning a respectable Rs 13.95 crore net in India over its first four days. The film, directed by Mudassar Aziz and produced by White World Productions, Wakaoo Films, and T-Series, saw a mixed response but managed to maintain steady growth over the weekend.

 
On its opening day, Thursday, the movie collected Rs 5.05 crore, which set a solid foundation. However, the second day saw a significant drop, with earnings falling to Rs 2.05 crore, a decline of about 59.41%. This dip could be attributed to various factors such as competition from other releases or perhaps mixed reviews from the audience.
Despite the drop on Friday, the film picked up pace over the weekend. On Saturday, it earned Rs 3.1 crore, showing a growth of 51.22% compared to Friday. This resurgence indicates that word-of-mouth and weekend audiences contributed positively to the film's performance. By Sunday, the movie further improved its earnings, bringing in Rs 3.75 crore, which marked a 20.97% increase from the previous day. This steady growth over the weekend is a positive sign for the film's overall box office trajectory.
The film's occupancy rates also give an insight into its performance across different showtimes. On Sunday, August 18, 2024, the overall Hindi occupancy was 34.54%, with evening and night shows having the highest turnout at 46.00% and 48.23%, respectively. Morning shows saw a lower occupancy of 10.40%, while afternoon shows had a moderate 33.52% turnout. These figures suggest that the film performed better during the later hours of the day, possibly attracting a more significant crowd during the weekend.

 
"Khel Khel Mein" stars a robust ensemble cast including Vaani Kapoor, Ammy Virk, Fardeen Khan, Pragya Jaiswal, and Aditya Seal in key roles. With its blend of popular stars and an interesting plot, the film has the potential to maintain its box office run in the coming weeks, especially if it continues to build on the momentum gained during the weekend.
Overall, with a total of Rs 13.95 crore net in four days, "Khel Khel Mein" has had a decent start. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether it can sustain this growth and achieve higher box office success.
