HIT 3 Box Office Day 5: Nani's Action Thriller Smashes Past Rs 100 Crore Mark
Last Updated:
Nani and Srinidhi Shetty's HIT: The Third Case, directed by Sailesh Kolanu, surpassed Rs 100 crore globally. It's the fourth-highest-grossing Telugu movie of 2025.
Nani and Srinidhi Shetty's Hit: The Third Case (aka Hit 3) kicked off its theatrical run with an impressive opening. Directed by Sailesh Kolanu, this third instalment in the popular HIT (Homicide Intervention Team) franchise has been pulling in steady numbers at the box office. While the film experienced a slight dip in collections on its first Sunday, it still raced past the coveted Rs 100 crore mark globally, a solid milestone for this crime-action thriller.
HIT 3 is hence the fourth-highest-grossing Telugu movie of 2025. On Monday, Nani's action-packed thriller HIT 3 added Rs 4.02 crore (nett) to its domestic earnings, as per early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk. This brings the India total to Rs 56.17 crore. However, the film saw its first dip into single-digit territory after opening strong with Rs 21 crore on Thursday, followed by consistent double-digit collections over the weekend— Rs10.5 crore, Rs 10.4 crore, and Rs 10.25 crore. While Sacnilk reports the film's global total at around Rs 82.6 crore, the makers announced a much higher figure – Rs 101 crore worldwide in just four days.
Interestingly, HIT 3 outperformed the first Monday collections of Nani's last three releases. While Dasara managed ₹3.65 crore, Hi Nanna brought in ₹2.35 crore, and Saripodhaa Sanivaaram collected ₹4 crore, HIT 3 led the pack with ₹4.02 crore. The film also maintained a decent overall occupancy rate of 24.01% in the Telugu market on Monday. Morning shows began on a quieter note with 17.20% occupancy, but numbers picked up by the afternoon (28.53%) and held steady through the evening (23.22%) and night (27.07%) shows.
Directed by Sailesh Kolanu and produced by Prashanti Tipirneni and Nani under Wall Poster Cinema and Unanimous Productions, HIT The Third Case stars Nani and Srinidhi Shetty in the lead roles. The action thriller also features Surya Srinivas, Rao Ramesh, Nepoleon, Komalee Prasad, and several others in pivotal roles.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning box office collection Day 16: Tom Cruise starrer hits Rs 90 crore mark on third weekend
Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning continues to hold strong at the Indian box office, crossing the Rs 90 crore milestone on its 16th day of release. According to early estimates from the film collected Rs 3.75 crore net across all languages on its third Sunday, maintaining steady traction over the weekend. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Directed by , the high-octane action sequel had a robust opening, garnering Rs 54.4 crore in its first week. However, its second-week earnings dipped sharply to Rs 26.75 crore, prompting concerns about its long-term performance. Despite the slowdown, The Final Reckoning rebounded over the third weekend. It earned Rs 1.9 crore on Friday, followed by Rs 3.65 crore on Saturday, and peaked at Rs 3.75 crore on Sunday. This brought its cumulative Indian box office collection to an estimated Rs 90.45 crore. The strong weekend performance suggests that the Mission: Impossible franchise continues to resonate with Indian audiences. However, whether it can surpass the Rs 110.3 crore total earned by last year's Dead Reckoning Part One over a nine-week run remains uncertain. Globally, the film added an estimated $27.3 million from 3,861 locations in the US. International markets contributed another $76.1 million—$25.2 million of which came from its China debut—bringing its worldwide total to approximately $353.8 million. While its global earnings are tracking in line with the previous two instalments, the film is still far from recouping its reported $400 million production budget, raising questions about its overall profitability. As the third weekend wraps up, all eyes remain on whether the Cruise-led blockbuster can sustain its box office momentum and secure a place among the highest-grossing titles in the Mission: Impossible series in India.

A part of News18's review of the film read, 'But what truly sets The Final Reckoning apart is its tone. It's not just an action blockbuster. It's an elegy. A goodbye. A thank-you. And somehow, despite all the chaos, it's also a reckoning with legacy, with sacrifice, with what it really means to be a hero when the world keeps moving the goalpost. The Final Reckoning is the most fitting, heart-racing, gut-wrenching finale Ethan Hunt could've asked for. If this really is the last mission, then hats off, Mr. Cruise. You didn't just complete it. You aced it." First Published:
