On September 20, movie lovers nationwide stepped out in big numbers to celebrate National Cinema Day by watching films at discounted rates.

Keep reading for a detailed box office report of National Cinema Day!
For those who don’t know, movie tickets were capped at 99 rupees yesterday at most theatres in India. Stree 2 benefited immensely from this, and it turned out to be the highest earner with a collection of 5.20 crores. It was followed by Yudhra, which, despite a minimal buzz around its release, opened at 4.52 crores.
Followed by Yudhra was Tumbbad, which did a business of 3.04 crores at the Indian box office on National Cinema Day. Being a re-release, such numbers are truly commendable. It is to be noted that the benefit of National Cinema Day was majorly enjoyed by Bollywood films as in some important parts of South India, there were no discounted rates. So, films from the South didn’t see a big surge in collections.
Among regional films, the Marathi film Navra Maza Navsacha 2 opened with impressive numbers, earning 1.90 crores. Punjabi film Ardaas Sarbat De Bhale Di raked in 0.75 crore. Malayalam film Kishkindha Kaandam earned 2.49 crores at the Indian box office yesterday. Aayante Randam Moshanam (ARM) earned 2.15 crores.
Films like The Greatest Of All Time, Kahan Shuru Kaha Khatam, and others also contributed their bit. On the whole, all noteworthy releases running in theatres amassed a cumulative collection of around 26 crores yesterday.
