Nikita Roy Box Office Day 1: Sonakshi Sinha's Supernatural Drama Off To A Slow Start
Last Updated: The major reason for the low numbers could be its stiff competition from big projects like Mohit Suri's directorial Saiyaara and Anupam Kher's Tanvi The Great. Sonakshi Sinha is back on the big screen as a lead with her latest release. This time, she made her much-awaited theatrical comeback with a supernatural drama film titled Nikita Roy. But despite pre-release excitement, the film has made a lackluster debut at the box office. It failed to connect with audiences and collected an estimated Rs 23 lakh (net) in India and Rs 26 lakh worldwide, according to trade tracking portal Directed by her brother Kussh S Sinha, Nikita Roy explores the fragile boundary between reality and perception, unravelling themes of paranoia, the human mind's darker recesses, and buried truths. It features Sonakshi as an investigator who challenges supernatural claims, exposes frauds, and questions misleading beliefs. But her convictions are shaken after she comes across a case that challenges her own beliefs. Besides Sonakshi Sinha, the film also stars Arjun Rampal, Paresh Rawal, and Suhail Nayyar in titular roles. Paresh Rawal steps into the role of a fake spiritual leader who manipulates people, and Sonakshi's character is determined to reveal his real truth. She teams up with Arjun Rampal's character to solve a chain of murders. The film has been bankrolled by Nickky Khemchand Bhagnani, Viicky Bhagnani, Kinjal Ashok Ghone, Ankur Takrani, Dinesh Ratiram Gupta, and Kratos Entertainment. The supernatural drama was initially scheduled to release in theatres on June 27, alongside Kajol's mythological thriller drama Maa, but it was postponed to July 18 for unforeseen reasons. The major reason for the low numbers could be its stiff competition from big projects like Mohit Suri's directorial Saiyaara, featuring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, as well as Tanvi The Great, starring a stellar cast including Anupam Kher, Karan Tacker, Shubhangi Dutt, Iain Glen, Boman Irani, Jackie Shroff and Pallavi Joshi. As per Sacnilk, the romantic drama has earned more than Rs 20 crore in two days despite starring newcomers. Anupam Kher's Tanvi The Great, on the other hand, earned around 40 lakhs in India on its first day (according to early estimates) and had an overall 14.41 per cent Hindi occupancy on Friday, July 18.
