Merry Christmas Box Office Collection Day 3: Katrina Kaif And fans were quite excited about Vijay Sethupathi’s crime-thriller film ‘Merry Christmas’. The audience was waiting for the film and with the release of the film on January 12, this wait finally ended. But after the release, the film does not seem to be getting much response from the audience. The film has clashed with many South films at the box office and it seems that Katrina’s film has become a victim of the clash.
According to Sacknilk’s report, the film had an opening of Rs 2.45 crore on the first day. On the second day also the collection of the film remained limited to Rs 3.45 crores. Now the preliminary figures of the third day have also come out, according to which the film has done a business of Rs 2.21 crore so far (till 6 pm). With this, the collection of the film at the domestic box office has now reached Rs 8.11 crore.
| Day 1 | ₹ 2.45 crore |
| Day 2 | ₹ 3.45 crore |
| Day 3 | ₹ 2.21 crore (initial figures) |
| Total | ₹ 8.11 crore |
Clash with South movies, ‘Merry Christmas’ suffered heavy losses
Let us tell you that many big South films have been released on January 12. These include Mahesh Babu’s most awaited film ‘Guntur Karam’ and Teja Sajja’s ‘Hanuman’. Apart from this, ‘Captain Miller’ and sci-fi film ‘Ayalan’ were also released in theaters on January 12. The collection of all these films till now is more than Katrina-Vijay’s ‘Merry Christmas’. In such a situation, it can be said that ‘Merry Christmas’ has suffered a lot due to the clash with South movies.
