Maa Week 1 Report Card: Kajol's Film Struggles At Box Office, Mints Rs 25 Crore
Last Updated: While Kajol's film isn't earning well at the box office, the horror and mythology mix has won the audience's hearts. The mythological horror film Maa, starring Kajol, was released in theatres with high expectations. The film had a slow start on its opening day on June 27, receiving a mixed response from both critics and audiences. The film did pick up a little pace over the weekend; however, it is struggling to climb uphill at the box office. On its seventh day, Maa has collected Rs 1.65 crore Nett in India, marking its lowest single-day collection so far. With this, the film's total 7-day collection comes to Rs 26.65 crore, according to early estimates by Sacnilk. The Kajol-starrer has seen a significant drop in the numbers. It opened on a modest note with Rs 4.65 crore on its first day. Following this, it added Rs 6 crore on Saturday and Rs 7 crore on Sunday. The next three days, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday saw a decrease, with Rs 2.5 crore, Rs 3 crore and Rs 1.85 crore, respectively. Adding day 7's number, the total box office collection is now expected to inch closer to the Rs 30 crore mark. While the film isn't earning well at the box office, the horror and mythology mix has won the audience's hearts. The average Hindi occupancy rate was recorded as 9.33 per cent on Thursday, July 3. The morning shows occupancy stood at 5.45 per cent, the afternoon shows picked up to 10.16 per cent and the evening shows were at 9.98 per cent. The night shows performed the best, with 11.72 per cent. Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa is bankrolled by Ajay Devgn and Jyoti Deshpande under the banners of Devgn Films and Jio Studios. The mythological horror film boasts an ensemble cast of talented actors, including Kajol, Indraneil Sengupta, Ronit Roy and Kherin Sharma. Adding to the dramatic clash, the film also features Gopal Singh, Yaaneea Bharadwaj, Jitin Gulati, Surjyasikha Das and Roopkatha Chakraborty. In the film, Kajol steps into the fierce role of a fearless mother who battles supernatural troubles. The film blends myth and mystery, relying on the mother-daughter equation as Kajol tries to protect her daughter from an evil entity. Meanwhile, Maa has faced stiff competition at the box office from Aamir Khan and Genelia D'Souza's Sitaare Zameen Par and Vishnu Manchu's star-studded film Kannappa. While RS Prasanna's emotional drama Sitaare Zameen Par is unshakeable at the box office and continues its dream run at the box office, Kannappa has surpassed Kajol's movie and has crossed the Rs 30 crore mark. As of now, Kajol's film stands at Rs 26.65 crore, while Kannappa has pulled ahead with Rs 30.10 crore over the same week. Beating both the films behind, Aamir Khan's emotional drama has minted Rs 135.65 crore at the box office. First Published:
