Housefull 5 vs Raid 2 Day 1 Territorial Break Down India Box Office: Here's how Akshay Kumar's comic caper compares to Ajay Devgn's crime-drama
Akshay Kumar led Housefull 5 has taken a good start of Rs 22 crore net in India, driven by higher than expected spotbookings. The film is all set to make solid gains over the holiday weekend. It is the 3rd biggest opener of the year, only behind Chhaava and Sikandar. Raid 2 which was previously the 3rd biggest, has slipped down to fourth. Here's analysing the territory wise collection of Housefull 5 and Raid 2 for the opening day. Raid 2 took a very good opening of Rs 18.50 crore net at the Indian box office. The film's opening day numbers were aided by the May Day holiday but it had to lock horns with two significant regional biggies Retro and Hit 3 from the opening day itself. Housefull 5 has released a day after Thug Life but that movie's negative word of mouth has affected it so much that has started seeing very high drops. Raid 2 put up strong collections across India but what stands out is its collections in the Mumbai circuit. Raid 2 collected Rs 8.35 crore in this circuit and even Housefull 5, which is much bigger a film than the former, has netted lesser. Housefull 5 has collected Rs 7.80 crore, marking a difference of slightly over Rs 50 lakh. In every other circuit, Housefull 5 has established a comfortable lead over Ajay Devgn's crime-drama. The Territorial Breakdown For The Opening Day Box Office Of Housefull 5 And Raid 2 Is As Under Raid 2 went on to net over Rs 162 crore in India, emerging a bonafied hit. All eyes are on Housefull 5 to see if it can go beyond what Raid 2 has collected, and if yes, by what margin. Housefull 5, being a much pricier film, must net atleast 40 crore more than Raid 2 to be in contention to be called a hit movie. The weekend should bring in around Rs 85 crore net for Akshay Kumar 's comic caper and then it is to be seen if the weekdays can remain strong. Talking about international collections, Housefull 5 has taken a very good opening of USD 1.25 million and it should cross the lifetime collections of Raid 2 internationally by the end of day 2. You can watch Housefull 5 in theatres now.

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection Day 1: Akshay Kumar Starrer Gets HIGHEST Non-Holiday Opening For Comedy Film In Indian History
New Delhi: Housefull is now back with one of the biggest comedy franchises marking its debut on the big screens, this Friday, June 6. After the positive performance of Akshay Kumar starrer, Sky Force earlier this year, his latest release Housefull 5 is off to a flying start, positioning itself as a potential blockbuster. Film reviews for "Housefull 5" were mixed. Some viewers noted the the inconsistent pacing, while others found the suspense engaging and appreciated the refreshing format. The film also made headlines by releasing two alternate endings—'Housefull 5A' and 'Housefull 5B'—in different theaters, which contributed to a significant box office impact. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Housefull 5 boasts an ensemble cast of 19 A-list actors — a first for any Hindi film. Early estimates indicate that the film is projected to earn over Rs 25 crore on its opening day. As of 4:15 PM on Friday, "Housefull 5" had collected Rs 8.40 crore across national chains, with projections estimating a total of Rs 14 crore by the end of the day (Net Box Office Collection: Rs 11.75 crore). National chains accounted for approximately 53% to 55% of the total, bringing the overall day one figure to an estimated Rs 25 crore. This marks Akshay Kumar's largest non-holiday opening to date, which is an impressive achievement, particularly for a comedy film. It also represents the strongest opening in the "Housefull" franchise, surpassing the Rs 17.50 crore debut of "Housefull 4." This franchise also achieves the highest non-holiday opening for any comedy film in Indian history. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) Saturday looks even more promising, as advance booking trends are on the rise. By 4 PM, over 60,000 tickets had already been sold across national chains. Critics remain optimistic, with positive word-of-mouth helping to drive foot traffic.
