The Buckingham Murders Box Office Collection Review: Film Earns ₹4.45 Crore in 6 Days, Slows Down After Promising Start

The latest Bollywood release, The Buckingham Murders, began its box office journey with a strong start, but as the days progressed, the numbers showed a significant slowdown, particularly on Day 6, which brought in ₹30 lakhs. Here’s an in-depth breakdown of the film’s first six days of box office performance:

The Buckingham Murders Box Office Collection

Day 1 (Friday): ₹1.1 crore (₹110 lakhs)
Day 2 (Saturday): ₹1.25 crore (₹125 lakhs)
Day 3 (Sunday): ₹1.35 crore (₹135 lakhs)
Day 4 (Monday): ₹85 lakhs
Day 5 (Tuesday): ₹45 lakhs
Day 6 (Wednesday): ₹30 lakhs

Total Box Office Collection (6 Days): ₹4.45 crore (₹445 lakhs)

Weekend Surge

The Buckingham Murders opened to a promising response on Day 1, bringing in ₹110 lakhs, with the momentum continuing into the weekend. Day 2 saw a slight uptick with ₹125 lakhs, followed by ₹135 lakhs on Day 3. This strong performance brought the first weekend total to ₹370 lakhs (₹3.7 crore).

Weekday Decline

After a solid weekend, the box office collections took a noticeable dip on Day 4 (Monday) with ₹85 lakhs, signalling a sharp decline in footfalls. The numbers further decreased to ₹45 lakhs on Day 5 (Tuesday), and ₹30 lakhs on Day 6 (Wednesday), resulting in a total of ₹445 lakhs (₹4.45 crore) over the six-day period.

Outlook for the Film

While the weekend collection set a solid foundation, the declining numbers during the weekdays highlight a challenge for the film to maintain steady earnings. With competition from other releases and OTT platforms, sustaining momentum will depend on positive word-of-mouth and reviews. As things stand, the film’s first-week collection is expected to land around ₹5 crore.

Final Verdict

Despite its strong start, the film has faced a sharp dip in its weekday collections, with Day 6’s ₹30 lakhs being the lowest so far. Whether it can bounce back will depend on audience engagement in the coming days.
