'Metro... In Dino' box office collection day 7: Despite fall in daily business, Anurag Basu-directorial mints THIS much in India

Overview

  • The romance anthology added about ₹2 crore on its second Friday, lifting its eight-day net to roughly ₹29–30 crore in India.
  • Sources close to the project say production cost was ₹40 crore with an additional ₹7 crore spent on print and advertising, countering earlier ₹85 crore reports.
  • That spend makes Metro…In Dino Anurag Basu’s fourth-highest-grossing film in India but still short of recouping its total costs.
  • The ensemble narrative, a spiritual follow-up to Life in a Metro, completes Basu’s hyperlink trilogy with tributes to late artist collaborators Irrfan Khan and singer KK.
  • Facing competition from new domestic releases and Hollywood tentpoles, the film needs an estimated ₹36–38 crore by second-weekend’s end to edge toward profitability.
