The Sabarmati Report, starring Vikrant Massey, Raashii Khanna, and Riddhi Dogra, has had a mixed first week at the box office.
The Sabarmati Report started with a modest opening of ₹1.25 Cr on Day 1 but showed solid growth over the weekend, peaking on Day 3 with a collection of ₹3.00 Cr. The film’s weekday performance was steady but lacked the momentum required to sustain a strong overall total. Directed initially by Ranjan Chandel and later by Dheeraj Sarna, the film delves into the political complexities surrounding the infamous event. The film captures attention with its compelling narrative and strong performances, maintaining steady box office momentum.
The Sabarmati Report Day-by-Day Collections (Hindi Net):

- Day 2 (Saturday): ₹2.10 Cr
- Day 3 (Sunday): ₹3.00 Cr
- Day 4 (Monday): ₹1.15 Cr

Total (Week 1): ₹11.5 Cr
Analysis:
- Weekend Boost: The film benefited from word-of-mouth and weekend footfalls, especially on Sunday.
- Weekday Dip: Collections saw a predictable decline during weekdays, though they remained consistent.
- Audience Response: The steady numbers suggest moderate interest, but the film struggled to achieve blockbuster status.
Verdict:
While The Sabarmati Report had a promising start, its first-week total of ₹11.5 Cr indicates a modest performance. To achieve long-term success, the film will need strong word-of-mouth and minimal competition in its second week.
