The 13‑day run of Lokesh Kanagaraj’s DC movie saw its earnings fall again on the second Wednesday, signaling a slowdown in collections.
Lokesh Kanagaraj’s latest venture, marketed under the "DC" banner, completed its thirteenth day in Indian theatres this week. The film, which opened to strong opening‑day numbers, has been closely watched by trade analysts for its performance across major markets.
On the second Wednesday after its release, the movie’s daily net earnings slipped further, marking another dip in its box‑office trajectory. This decline follows a similar slowdown observed earlier in the week, suggesting that the initial enthusiasm is waning.
Industry observers note that mid‑week drops are common, but a consecutive fall on a Wednesday can indicate a tougher competitive environment or reduced audience footfall. Distributors are now monitoring the trend to gauge whether the film can stabilize its earnings in the coming days or face a sharper fall.
The box‑office outlook remains uncertain, with the film’s producers likely to rely on word‑of‑mouth and ancillary revenue streams to sustain its overall run.
