Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia's fantasy thriller sees a 27.6% jump on its third day, pushing net Indian earnings past the Rs 33‑crore mark.
Day‑three surge
The Sidharth Malhotra‑Tamannaah Bhatia vehicle The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest clocked its biggest single‑day haul on the third day of its run, nudging the film’s net collection inside India past the Rs 33‑crore threshold. Trade site Sacnilk put the day‑three figure at roughly Rs 14.35 crore, drawn from more than seven‑thousand screenings nationwide.
That lift translates to a 27.6 per cent jump from the previous day, a rhythm that has the industry eyeing how the title will hold up through the work‑week. The cumulative Indian gross now sits at about Rs 40.15 crore, while the net tally stands at Rs 33.60 crore.
Overseas numbers
Beyond the sub‑continent, the picture added another Rs 1.25 crore on day three, taking its overseas total to Rs 3.50 crore. Combined with domestic earnings, the worldwide gross has crossed Rs 43.65 crore.
Why the momentum matters
The film’s upward swing arrives at a crucial juncture. After a modest opening, the third‑day bounce suggests word‑of‑mouth is kicking in, especially for a genre that blends folklore with supernatural intrigue. The story draws from legends surrounding the Maa Van Devi Temple in Bihar, a backdrop that appears to be resonating with audiences.
For Sidharth Malhotra, the numbers mark a welcome reversal after a string of under‑performers. The cast also includes Anup Soni, Sunil Grover, Shweta Tiwari and Maniesh Paul, all of whom have been highlighted in promotional rounds.
The road ahead
Industry watchers will be keen to see if the film can sustain its current pace. Weekday collections often dictate whether a fantasy thriller can break into the coveted Rs 50‑crore club. With the weekend behind it, the next few days will either cement The Vvaan as a surprise hit or see it taper off.
Bottom line
The third‑day figures give the movie a solid platform to build on. If the buzz around its folklore‑rich premise continues, the film could finish its theatrical run with a respectable tally, offering a boost to both its leads and the fantasy‑thriller niche in Bollywood.
Stay tuned for the next box‑office update as weekday numbers roll in.
