As “Animal,” starring Ranbir Kapoor, marks its 14th day in theaters, the film continues to dominate the box office, inching closer to breaking records set by blockbusters like “Baahubali 2.” The controversial film, known for its intense sequences and amid debates on misogyny, has not only sustained its momentum but has also amassed a staggering global collection surpassing Rs 800 crore.
Despite controversies surrounding its content, “Animal” has drawn massive crowds to cinemas, contributing to its impressive box office performance. On its 14th day, the film recorded a collection of Rs 8.75 crore, bringing its domestic nett earnings to a formidable Rs 476.84 crore, showcasing the enduring popularity of the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer.
The film made a striking opening with Rs 63.8 crore and achieved its highest single-day collection on the third day, raking in an impressive Rs 71.46 crore. However, post its second weekend, “Animal” experienced a gradual decline in collections, reaching below Rs 15 crore on certain days. Despite the dip, the film’s overall performance has been noteworthy.
As of now, “Animal” stands on the brink of breaking records, with its global collection crossing the remarkable Rs 800 crore mark. This feat places the film in elite company, challenging the benchmarks set by cinematic giants like “Baahubali 2.”
The film’s impact is evident in its consistent draw at cinemas, with 1264 shows in the Delhi-NCR region on a recent Thursday. As “Animal” continues its successful run, the buzz around its box office performance and controversies add layers to its narrative, making it a notable chapter in Bollywood’s recent cinematic journey.
