Mirzapur The Movie Box Office Weekend: A Historic ₹96.85 Crore, First-Ever Web Series-To-Film Franchise To Deliver Numbers This Big

Friday roared, Saturday grew louder, and Sunday made history. Mirzapur: The Movie has closed its opening weekend at ₹96.85 crore nett in Hindi, adding ₹36.50 crore on Sunday alone, growth over an already-strong Saturday, and in doing so has become the first-ever web series-to-film franchise adaptation to deliver a weekend on this scale.

Weekend Total (3 Days)₹96.85 crore

Fourth-Biggest Opening Weekend Of 2026

With this weekend total, Mirzapur: The Movie has secured the fourth spot among the top five opening weekends of the year, trailing only Dhurandhar 2, Border 2 and Toxic, and finishing ahead of Awarapan 2. For a franchise built entirely on streaming loyalty rather than a conventional star-led theatrical push, cracking the top four openings of 2026 is a genuinely historic outcome.

The Gamble That Paid Off

This was never a safe bet. Excel Entertainment and Amazon MGM Studios took a real risk putting Mirzapur on the big screen, a franchise built and beloved on streaming, where the viewing habits and expectations are entirely different from a theatrical release. It could easily have misfired. Instead, the response has been phenomenal, turning what looked like a risky gamble into a massive box office triumph within a single weekend.

Not Just Metros, Everywhere

What makes this weekend genuinely remarkable is the spread. Urban centres have performed strongly, as expected for a franchise with deep metro fandom, but it's Tier 2, Tier 3 and the mass pockets that have delivered spectacular numbers, proof that Mirzapur's appeal runs far deeper into the heartland than its streaming-first reputation might have suggested.

Telugu Version Holds Steady Through The Weekend

The film's limited-release Telugu version has continued its consistent climb, moving from ₹26 lakh on Friday to ₹28 lakh on Saturday to ₹30 lakh on Sunday, for a three-day total of ₹84 lakh. Modest next to the Hindi numbers, but the steady day-on-day growth mirrors the exact same pattern seen in the film's primary market.

All Eyes Now On The Weekdays

An extraordinary weekend is only half the story. With Friday, Saturday and Sunday all growing on each other, Mirzapur: The Movie now heads into the far tougher test of the all-important weekdays, where holiday tailwinds and weekend curiosity give way to plain working-day demand. All eyes are now on Monday to see whether this historic opening weekend converts into genuine legs.

Mirzapur The Movie: A Zabardast, Dhamakedaar Opening For The Ages

A first-ever web series-to-film franchise crossing near ₹97 crore in three days, growing every single day of its opening weekend, and topping charts across urban and mass circuits alike, this is the kind of opening weekend the trade will be referencing for years as proof that streaming loyalty can translate into genuine theatrical dominance.
