Ikkis Slips on Day Two as Trade Tallies Diverge

Early trade readings show a near-50% Friday drop, sharpening questions about budget recovery against entrenched box-office competition.

Overview

  • Sacnilk estimates Rs 3.5 crore on day two for a two-day India net of about Rs 10.5 crore, roughly a 50% slide from the Rs 7 crore opening, with 14.72% Hindi occupancy and stronger pockets in Bengaluru and Chennai.
  • Koimoi reports higher figures at Rs 4.02 crore for day two and Rs 11.30 crore across two days, highlighting discrepancies in box-office reporting.
  • Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar continues to lead in its fourth week, with day-29 takes reported between Rs 6.63 crore and Rs 8.75 crore and a wider show count (about 3,800 vs roughly 2,400 for Ikkis).
  • A mid/end-credits disclaimer stating the Pakistani brigadier’s humane act is an exception and calling Pakistan ‘not trustworthy’ has gone viral and drawn online reaction.
  • Media estimates place the film’s budget near Rs 60 crore without official confirmation, and Times of India pegs the two-day worldwide gross at about Rs 12.5 crore, making weekend momentum crucial.
