The recently released movie “Shaitaan,” starring Ajay Devgn, R Madhavan, and Jyotika, had an amazing first weekend at the box office. In barely three days, the film has surpassed the Rs 50-crore milestone in India. ‘Shaitaan’ made its highest-ever revenue in India on Sunday, March 10, earning Rs 20 crore net since its premiere.
Early estimates indicate that “Shaitaan” collected more on Day 3 than it did on Days 1 and 2. The movie made a net total of Rs 53.50 crore at the domestic box office.
‘Shaitaan’ registered an overall occupancy rate of 36.24 per cent in India on March 10. Now, the movie’s success during the workdays will be the deciding factor in how long it plays in theatres.
For those who don’t know, “Shaitaan” is a reimagining of the Gujarati movie “Vash.” Much anticipation preceded its March 8, 2024, release in cinemas. Everyone was intrigued by the movie’s trailer.
The script and plot for the Vikas Bahl-directed movie were written by Aamil Keeyan Khan and Krishnadev Yagnik, respectively. Anngad Raaj and Janki Bodiwala play important parts in the movie as well.
