Gippy Grewal’s Akaal was released on Thursday, amid the benefit of the Mahavir Jayanti holiday. However, it failed to enjoy its full potential and registered just a decent start on the board. After taking a start of less than a crore on holiday, the film was expected to drop on day 2, and that’s what exactly happened. Though the drop wasn’t huge, a steady hold would have put the film in a better situation. Keep reading for a detailed box office collection report!
Coming from a holiday, the Punjabi magnum opus started with a dismal 3% occupancy in the morning shows on day 2. After such a poor beginning, there was some growth in the afternoon shows, with an occupancy of 8%. In the evening, there was a slight jump up to 9%. In the night shows, there was again some growth, but it was on the lower side (13%).
Overall, Akaal had an occupancy of just 8% throughout the day, which is disappointing. Ideally, occupancy in the range of 20-25% was expected, which would have set the stage for healthy growth on Saturday. With such a performance, the biggie earned 60 lakh on day 2, a drop of 29.41% from day 1’s 85 lakh.
