Dil Deewana Ho Gaya turned out to be a flop in the first week all over.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (dubbed and the original English versions) swept the Indian box-office and registered record-breaking collections on not just the first day and the first weekend but also for the first week. After netting an earth-shattering Rs. 61 crore on Thursday (July 30), which is the highest for any Hollywood film in India and the second-biggest opening this year so far (next only to Dhurandhar: The Revenge), it collected Rs. 48.30 crore on Friday. Collections soared to an extraordinary Rs. 70.80 crore on Saturday, and even more on Sunday which closed at Rs. 77.50 crore. In this way, the first 4-day weekend recorded a historic figure of Rs. 257.60 crore. Collections for the weekdays were also absolutely terrific: Monday – Rs. 23.60 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 22 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 18.30 crore, Thursday – Rs. 15.10 crore. Hence the total for the weekdays was a remarkable Rs. 79 crore. Therefore, the first 8-day week closed at Rs. 336.60 crore. This is the highest any Hollywood film has collected in India in the first week. Interesting to note that the lifetime collection total of Avengers: End Game in India was Rs. 367 crore, and that of Avatar: The Way Of Water was Rs. 378 crore! It will surpass both the figures in the second week itself — may be, in the second weekend, to claim the position of the greatest Hollywood film in India thus far!

Jan Neta (dubbed) barely managed to stay afloat in the second week. It collected only Rs. 1.25 crore in 2nd week, taking its grand total for 2 weeks to Rs. 10.85 crore.

The Odyssey (dubbed and the original English versions) started its third weekend with a take of Rs. 3.42 crore. Collections on Saturday and Sunday increased to Rs. 5.66 crore and Rs. 5.72 crore respectively, taking the total for the third weekend to Rs. 14.80 crore. Collections for the weekdays were as follows: Monday – Rs. 2.23 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 2.38 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 2.19 crore, Thursday – Rs. 2.09 crore. With the total for the weekdays being Rs. 8.89 crore, the third week closed at Rs. 23.69 crore. Grand total for 3 weeks: Rs. 155.02 crore. This has become Christopher Nolan’s highest grossing film in India.

Dhamaal 4 dropped markedly in 4th week because of the opposition of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Its fourth weekend began with a collection of only Rs. 0.75 crore on Friday. Collections for Saturday and Sunday were Rs. 1.30 crore and Rs. 1.70 crore respectively. After a fourth weekend total of Rs. 3.75 crore, collections for the weekdays were: Monday – Rs. 0.40 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 0.55 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 0.40 crore, Thursday – Rs. 0.35 crore. Therefore, the total for the weekdays was Rs. 1.70 crore. In this way, the fourth week closed at Rs. 5.45 crore. Grand total for 4 weeks: Rs. 155.45 crore.

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY (dubbed and the original English versions) opened huge on Thursday (July 30), recording a net total of Rs. 61 crore. This is the biggest opening for a Hollywood film in India. Given the public reports and the second day (Friday) total of Rs. 48.30 crore, the Spidey film would definitely breach the Rs. 200-crore mark in the first 4-day weekend!

Collections on Saturday and Sunday increased to Rs. 2 crore and Rs. 2.25 crore respectively, taking the total for the 4-day weekend to just Rs. 7.05 crore. Collections for the weekdays were: Monday – Rs. 0.75 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 1 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 0.60 crore, Thursday – Rs. 0.20 crore. The steep fall in collections on Thursday was because of the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. With the total for the weekdays being Rs. 2.55 crore, the first 8-day week closed at just Rs. 9.60 crore.

The Odyssey (dubbed and the original English versions) continued its victory march in the second week too. It dropped a little less than 50% in its 2nd week.

Collections for the weekdays were as follows: Monday – Rs. 4.19 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 4.82 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 4.46 crore, Thursday – Rs. 2.80 crore. The marked fall in collections on Thursday was because of the competition posed by Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which opened that day.

The more than 50% drop on Thursday as compared to the previous day (Wednesday) was because of the new Hollywood release, Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Anyway, the total for the weekdays was Rs. 5.40 crore. In this way, the third week closed at Rs. 19 crore. Grand total for 3 weeks: Rs. 150 crore.

Evil Dead Burn (dubbed and the original English versions) netted Rs. 1.25 crore in the third weekend, and another Rs. 0.90 crore during the weekdays. Hence the total for 3rd week was Rs. 2.15 crore. Grand total for 3 weeks: Rs. 26.45 crore.
