Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 18: Aamir Khan's movie sees drastic fall in Monday earnings, mints...
The movie had a significant hold on urban cities, but is now facing tough competition from Anurag Basu's Metro In Dino, which, too, focuses on the same target audience.
However, metro cities' potential is being hit by stiff competition from the Hollywood biggies—Jurassic World Rebirth and Brad Pitt's F1.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Sitaare Zameen Par earned a meagre ₹ 70,00,000 till 6 PM on Monday, Day 18.
This means that the movie's total earnings remain below the ₹ 150 crore mark, at ₹ 149.4 crore.
These are just early estimates from Sitaare Zameen Par's Monday earnings. The numbers will be revised later to include evening and night show collections.
Therefore, a decent jump in the second half of the day may help the Aamir Khan and Genelia D'Souza starrer to cross the mark by the end of the day.
By the end of Saturday, Day 16, the movie had collected ₹ 142.55 crore, of which its Tamil version garnered ₹ 74,00,000 and its Telugu variant earned ₹ 44,00,000.
Sitaare Zameen Par saw an overall 7.97% occupancy on July 7.
For the Hindi version, the occupancy was as follows:
The numbers for the evening and night shows are yet to be released.
Chennai, Jaipur, Bengaluru, Lucknow, and Mumbai recorded the highest footfall for the day.
Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by RS Prasanna, has earned a solid ₹ 231.5 crore globally in 17 days. Its overseas collection stood at ₹ 53.75 crore, while its India gross was ₹ 177.75 crore.
The numbers are yet to be updated for Day 18.

The slightly better-than-50 percent hold from Friday highlights positive word-of-mouth for this Jurassic film. If Not For Screen-Sharing Issues, Jurassic World: Rebirth Could Have Done Even Better Despite competition from Metro… In Dino, F1 and Sitaare Zameen Par, the film has held its ground. The English version leads collections, with Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu dubbed versions performing well. The film had poor showcasing given by Indian exhibitors.

India's cinema struggle: Falling screens and capital crisis demand gumption
The movie business in India is caught in a vicious cycle of falling screen count and, consequently, fewer films and no capital. Breaking out of it will require gumption Listen to This Article There are so many happy movie business stories, you just have to look for them. Take Sitaare Zameen Par. Aamir Khan Productions decided not to do any OTT deal until the film, which released on June 20, had its full theatrical run. The shorter the window between a film's theatrical release and its appearance on OTT, the less likely it is that audiences will walk into the theatre to see a small film like this one, which is about the story, not about the star — a la Pushpa2 or Pathaan.

Metro In Dino Day 4 India Box Office: Anurag Basu's movie holds BUT at very low levels on 1st Monday; Nets Rs 2.40 crore
Anurag Basu's Metro… In Dino has earned Rs 2.25-2.50 crore net on its first Monday at the Indian box office. This reflects a reasonable 70 percent hold from its opening day collection of Rs 3.25 crore. The film's opening weekend totaled Rs 15.75 crore, with day-wise collections of Rs 3.25 crore on Friday, Rs 5.75 crore on Saturday, and Rs 6.75 crore on Sunday. While the Monday hold of Anurag Basu ' film in percentage terms is solid, the low numbers suggest the film will struggle to make a significant impact, especially with new releases set to flood theatres. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of Dino Are As Under Dino Has Positive Word Of Mouth Going By The Hold; But Collections Remain Underwhelming The film, a spiritual sequel to 2007's Life… In A Metro, features a stellar cast including Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Pankaj Tripathi, and Fatima Sana Shaikh. It explores modern relationships in urban settings. Despite positive reviews, its box office performance remains underwhelming. The film has performed best in urban centers like Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Kolkata, and Delhi. However, unlike its predecessor, the film's music has failed to become as big as its predicessor, despite being really soothing to the ears. A hit soundtrack could have pushed the opening weekend closer to Rs 25 crore, with lifetime collections having a chance to go past Rs 50 crore. Dino's Box Office Trend Suggests A Finish In The Rs 30-35 Crore Net Range With new releases arriving this Friday, Metro… In Dino's screen count and showtimes will shrink, in turn hampering its run. The film's total cost, including production and marketing, is estimated at Rs 100 crore, with Rs 70 crore already recovered through non-theatrical deals. To break even, it needs at least Rs 55 crore net in India. Current trends suggest lifetime collections of Rs 30-35 crore; a number well short of the target. Better Opening Could Have Done Dino A Big Favour The 70 percent Monday hold is encouraging, showing some audience loyalty in urban markets. Yet, the low absolute numbers and looming competition make a robust box office run unlikely. Dino needed a stronger opening to leverage its positive word-of-mouth. As it stands, the film's theatrical performance may not cover its remaining costs, marking a financial loss to the film's makers. Dino In Theatres Dino plays in theatres.
