Dunki has done well in its first weekend with a 100 crore nett plus extended weekend though expectations were higher within the industry due to the director Rajkumar Hirani and the star presence of Shahrukh Khan but the genre which is a mix of a drama with comedy was always going to make it tough as those expecattions were too high

The box office today is changed Animal from the pre pandemic days as mass circuits have to score for big numbers and here appreciation  in mass areas was not there on release and nor were the numbers. Due to the release of Salaar it also made it hard for South to compensate some of these lower numbers in hidni circuits though going by teh Sunday numbers in Mysore Dunki could give Salaar a run for its money post the weekend.

Despite Salaar being big in South the better numbers for Dunki have still come from South as well as West Bengal and Delhi NCR. There will be another good total coming on Monday due to the Xmas holiday and then its about that crucial Tuesday. There is another long weekend waiting  in week two with no major new release if it can hold over the weekdays. The collections of Dunki till date are as follows.

Thursday - 28,00,00,000 apprx

Friday - 20,00,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 24,50,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 29,00,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 1,01,50,00,000 apprx
