The record
Written from the 2 reports below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Three Hindi-language films are at very different points in their box office journeys.
- 'Hanuman Ansh' has crossed the 300 crore mark in worldwide gross collections and, notably, is still drawing audiences on day 42 — an unusually long theatrical run that signals sustained word-of-mouth.
- 'Mirzapur' has entered the 200 crore net club, joining the ranks of recent big earners, though its pace suggests it is trailing Hanuman Ansh's trajectory.
- Meanwhile, 'Haiwan' continues to underperform, struggling to find an audience despite being in theatres alongside these titles.
- The coverage, from Amar Ujala, is straightforward trade reporting with no controversy or competing narratives — the story is purely commercial.
- What matters here is the widening gap between hits and misses at the Indian box office, where audiences appear to be concentrating spend on a few titles.
- The key question ahead is whether Hanuman Ansh's long tail continues and how Mirzapur's final total lands.
What to watch next
- Track Hanuman Ansh weekday collections in weeks 7+
- Watch whether Mirzapur sustains past the 200 crore mark
