Haiwaan Day 3 Advance Booking: Disastrous Run Continues, Only 4,560 Tickets Sold By 3 PM, Fate Sealed After ₹2.75 Crore Opening
Haiwaan's box office collapse shows no signs of stopping.
Three days into its theatrical run, the disaster continues to unfold exactly as feared. By 3 PM on Day 3, the film has sold a dismal 4,560 tickets in national chains, a number that offers zero indication of recovery after an already disastrous ₹2.75 crore opening day.
Haiwaan Advance Booking Trend: National Chains
| Date | Advance Booking |
|---|---|
| Day 1 (10/09, till 11:00 PM) | 9,801 tickets |
| Day 2 (11/09) | 10,000 tickets |
| Day 3 (12/09, till 3:00 PM) | 4,560 tickets |
No Sign Of Growth, Even On The First Weekend
Day 3 should ideally be a film's first real shot at recovery, especially if it's a weekend day where footfalls typically pick up regardless of a weak opening. Instead, Haiwaan has managed only 4,560 tickets by mid-afternoon, a number that doesn't even suggest a meaningful jump from the flatlined 10,000 posted on Day 2.
This isn't a dip. This is a film that simply isn't finding an audience, three days in.
The Fate Was Already Sealed
With an opening day collection of just ₹2.75 crore and zero growth through Day 2, the writing was already on the wall. Day 3's dismal number only confirms what the trend had been signaling since before release: this film's theatrical fate was sealed well before the weekend even arrived.
A ₹2.75 crore opening for a film headlined by two established stars was already a red flag. Following it up with two consecutive days of stagnant advance booking removes any remaining possibility of a word-of-mouth-driven turnaround.
Established Stars, Continued Freefall
Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan remain experienced, recognisable names in Hindi cinema, yet three days into release, the film carrying their names has failed to generate even the modest bump that a weekend typically brings for a struggling release. The advance booking pattern across all three days tells a consistent story of a film that never found its audience.
The Competition Problem Only Deepens
Haiwaan's collapse comes as two other films continue to dominate the marketplace:
Hanuman Ansh remains unstoppable, still pulling strong numbers deep into its extended theatrical run and commanding a large share of screens.
Mirzapur: The Movie continues to run riot, having crossed ₹150 crore-plus and still holding strong audience mindshare well into its own second week.
With both these films continuing to draw crowds, Haiwaan's inability to convert even a weekend into any real momentum leaves it with virtually no path back into the conversation.
What This Means Going Forward
Three days in, with a ₹2.75 crore opening, a flatlined Day 2, and now a dismal 4,560-ticket showing by mid-afternoon on Day 3, Haiwaan's theatrical journey looks all but over before it truly began. Barring a dramatic and unexpected shift in audience sentiment, the film appears headed for one of the weakest theatrical runs of the year for a release with this level of star power behind it.
