The Nayanthara‑Kavin starrer 'Hi' saw its fifth‑day earnings fall 14.4%, with Tuesday's collection remaining unchanged, according to trade data.
The Tamil‑language film 'Hi', headlined by Nayanthara and Kavin, posted a 14.4% decline in its box‑office earnings on the fifth day of its run. Trade sources indicated that the drop was measured against the previous day's figures, signalling a slowdown after an initially strong opening.
Tuesday's collections, however, were reported to be flat, suggesting that the film has found a stable audience base but is not gaining further momentum. The steadiness in earnings points to a plateau rather than a further dip, as the weekend approaches.
Industry analysts note that such a pattern is common for mid‑budget releases that rely on star power and word‑of‑mouth. While the dip may temper expectations for a blockbuster run, the film's performance remains respectable within its segment.
The data, released by The Times of India, underscores the importance of monitoring daily trends for distributors and exhibitors as they plan screen allocations for the coming weeks.
