Andhagan Box Office Breakdown

Day 4 Performance:
On its first Monday, Andhagan experienced a significant drop in box office earnings, collecting approximately ₹0.45 crore, marking a 64% decline from its Sunday collection. This sharp decrease is typical as the film transitions from the weekend to weekdays, where audience turnout usually declines. Despite the dip, the film’s total earnings stand at ₹3.50 crore after four days, which is a decent figure considering the film’s niche appeal.
Collection Overview:
Andhagan kicked off its box office run with a modest ₹0.65 crore on its opening Friday. The film gained momentum on Saturday, pulling in ₹1.19 crore, an impressive 83.08% increase from the first day. The upward trend continued on Sunday, albeit with a more modest 8.70% growth, as the film earned ₹1.25 crore. These consistent earnings over the weekend brought the film’s three-day total to ₹3.09 crore. The dip on Monday brought the four-day total to ₹3.50 crore, suggesting that while the film started strong, maintaining its momentum during the weekdays could be challenging.
