Maalik Box Office Day 5: RajKummar Rao's Film Inches Close To Rs 20-Crore Mark
Maalik opened with Rs 3.75 crore on Friday and witnessed a significant growth on Saturday and Sunday with a collection of Rs 5.25 crore on each day. Maalik, the RajKummar Rao starrer gangster drama, has been struggling at the box office to get momentum. This could be due to its still competition with films like Superman and Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan. Despite that, the film maintained its steady grip on its first Tuesday and collected Rs 2 crore Nett in India, as per With this, Maalik's total 5-Day collection comes to Rs 18 crore in India. On Monday, the film saw a significant drop in the numbers with a collection of just Rs 1.75 crore, its lowest single-day total so far. However, Tuesday (July 15) turned out to be a surprising day for the maker as Maalik witnessed growth at the box office on day 5. This could be the result of a positive word of mouth from the audience and low ticket prices on Tuesday at several theatres. In the coming week, RajKummar's film shows might decrease as Saiyaara, Tanvi: The Great and Nikita Roy are releasing in cinema halls this Friday. Maalik opened with Rs 3.75 crore on Friday and witnessed a significant growth on Saturday and Sunday with a collection of Rs 5.25 crore on each day. Helmed by Pulkit and produced by Tips, the film also features Manushi Chillar, Prosenjit Chatterjee, Anshumaan Pushkar, Swanand Kirkire, Saurabh Sachdeva and Saurabh Shukla in pivotal roles. Maalik follows the story of Deepak, a farmer's son who rises to power as a gangster in Allahabad (now Prayagraj) during the 1980s. The movie explores his journey from a simple man to a feared figure, driven by ambition and personal loss, and his entanglement in the socio-political landscape of the time. The film marks RajKummar's first action thriller. Recently, during an interaction with Zoom, he shared that he had received offers for action films in the past as well, but was waiting for the right script. He said, 'There's a lot more inside me to explore as an actor that I haven't done before. Maalik was definitely one of the few things I wanted to do, and I was waiting for the proper script. It's not like I hadn't been offered action films before, but the story wasn't there. For me, action is more than just action; there must be a story, and action should be a part of it." Up next, he will be seen in the comedy-entertainer Toaster with Sanya Malhotra and in Stree 3. view comments First Published: July 16, 2025, 09:53 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
