Dhamaal 4 Holds With 1.10 Crore On 4th Friday, Heads For 165 Crore Lifetime
Dhamaal 4 has shown a decent hold in its 4th week at the box office. According to early estimates, the comedy film collected around 1.10 crore on its 4th Friday. The number is healthy considering the film is in its fourth week and is now facing huge competition from SpiderMan Brand New Day, which released this week and has taken over most of the premium shows. Despite the new big release, Dhamaal 4 has managed to retain some screens in mass belts and is still drawing audiences in single screens.
The hold on the 4th Friday is important because new releases usually wipe out older films from multiplexes. But Dhamaal 4 is benefiting from strong word of mouth and repeat family audiences. The comedy genre works well in tier 2 and tier 3 cities, and that is where the film is still performing. Shows in UP, Bihar, Rajasthan, MP and parts of Maharashtra continue to run with 20 to 30 percent occupancy even on weekdays. The light hearted content and ensemble cast have given the film legs that most comedies do not get these days.
With 1.10 crore coming in on Friday, the film’s total is now very close to the 165 crore mark that trade had predicted. Dhamaal 4 is officially a HIT and has done something rare for a comedy film in recent years. Most comedies struggle to cross the 100 crore mark, but this one has played for a long time and built its total slowly. The lack of big Hindi competition in the first three weeks helped, and now even with SpiderMan in the picture the film is not collapsing. It is expected to add another 6 to 8 crore over the weekend before settling into a steady run.
Overall, Dhamaal 4’s journey has been a good case study for how content driven comedies can still work in theaters. A 165 crore final run is a strong number and puts the film in the safe zone with good returns for the makers. The film proved that if the humor connects, audiences will come even without action. In a year dominated by big franchises, Dhamaal 4 has carved out its own space and given the comedy genre a much needed win at the Indian box office.
