Drishyam: The Conclusion (Drishyam 3) has an excellent opening, recording 35-40 per cent occupancy on Friday morning. By noon it could be clearing the 40 per cent mark. This used to be VERY GOOD opening a couple years ago, but the box office has changed and now the business is more evening loaded than it used to be. As such changes are to be made, with some leniency to morning shows. This is the second best opening this year after Dhurandhar: The Revenge. In the centres like Mumbai, Pune and Delhi-NCR, the opening is at BUMPER level.
The film had a massive advance for the day at over Rs. 25 crore nett. That essentially locked Rs. 50 crore nett opening day with a shot at Rs. 60 crore nett. That is what the film will be chasing. The opening in the morning is there. Today being a national holiday, the current during the day will be super strong. The film had a big surge in advance yesterday, so the momentum is already there with it.
Drishyam 3 is a thriller film, which is a genre that hasn’t traditionally done big at box office. However, what makes Drishyam special is that it has a strong family emotional value and that widens its appeal. It is a well established brand and that IP power is on full display. Today being a national holiday is an added advantage and that is what made this massive opening possible.
