Toxic Day 2: The pace of ‘Toxic’ has slowed down considerably on the second day. This film, which crossed the Rs 100 crore mark on the first day, has not been able to earn even Rs 10 crore till 4 pm.
The pace of ‘Toxic’, which brought a tsunami at the box office on the first day, has slowed down on Thursday. Yes, on the first day the film had earned Rs 27.45 crore by 11 am. According to the initial figures revealed, Yash’s film has not earned even Rs 10 crore till 4 pm on the second day.
Record breaking earnings were made on Day 1
Yash’s ‘Toxic’ created a huge stir at the box office on the very first day of its release. The film, released on Wednesday, made a spectacular collection of Rs 101.10 crore on the opening day. After this spectacular performance on the first day, it was believed that the film would maintain its strong hold on the second day also. However, preliminary figures on Thursday are telling a different story.
Data till 4 pm on the second day
According to preliminary box office figures, ‘Toxic’ has earned only Rs 9.61 crore till 4 pm on Thursday, the second day of its release. That is, while the film had collected Rs 27.45 crore only till 11 am on the first day, its collection could not reach Rs 10 crore even till 4 pm on the second day.
effect of working day
Thursday is also considered to be a working day as a major reason behind the slow pace of the second day of ‘Toxic’. A large number of viewers reached the theaters to watch the film on the first day after its release, but since it was a weekday, the footfall in the afternoon shows was less. In such a situation, the trade is now eyeing the occupancy of evening and night shows.
If there is a good surge in viewership after the evening, the film can handle the second day’s collection to a great extent. At the same time, if there is no significant increase in night shows, then there may be a big decline in the earnings of the second day as compared to the first day.
The real test will be on the weekend
Now the coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday are going to be very important for the film. This is because this time it is a long weekend due to Raksha Bandhan (28th August). In such a situation, the audience has full opportunity to go to the cinema hall.
About ‘Toxic’
There was a huge buzz among the audience about Yash’s ‘Toxic’ even before its release. Along with Yash, many actors including Kiara Advani, Nayanthara are seen in important roles in the film. Live Hindustan has given the film a rating of 3.5 stars. The acting of Yash, Kiara Advani and Nayanthara has been liked in the film. However, the story of the film is not as strong as expected and this seems to be its biggest weakness.
