Shaitaan continues to enjoy a glorious run at the Indian box office. Despite new releases and holdovers, the film has entered into the third week in style, and by the end of the weekend, it is all set to grab the much-awaited Hit verdict, thus grabbing the honor of becoming the first clean Hit of Bollywood in 2024.

Huge success for all!
The horror thriller has benefitted everyone associated with it. Ajay Devgn’s last film, Bholaa, was a failure, so he managed to shift the gears with this film. R Madhavan’s last film, Dhokha: Round D Corner, was also a failure, so even he has bounced back with this latest release. For makers, it’s already a successful affair.
Budget & returns till now
Talking about the budget, even though the exact figure is not known, Shaitaan reportedly carries a price tag of 65 crores. So, if this amount is compared with the total collection of 119.53 crores, the ROI (return on investment) stands at 54.53 crores. Calculating further, the film is enjoying 83.89% returns at the Indian box office.
As of now, Shaitaan is enjoying the Plus verdict in the box office collection chart. It’ll bag the Hit verdict once the returns hit 100%, and that will happen once the film collects 130 crores at the Indian box office. Considering the solid hold at ticket windows, the Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan starrer is expected to touch this figure by the end of the third weekend.
So, Shaitaan might secure that Hit tag by Sunday and will become the first clean Hit of Bollywood in 2024, as per Koimoi’s parameters.
More about the film
Shaitaan is directed by Vikas Bahl and it also features Janki Bodiwala, Jyothika and Anngad Raaj in key roles. It’s an official Hindi remake of the 2023 Gujarati film Vash. Interestingly, Janki was also a part of Vash, and she has reprised her role in this horror thriller.
