Rishab Shetty’s mythological action drama Kantara: Chapter 1 continues its remarkable feat at the box office, creating history. Despite a slow opening on Monday, the film is very much on track to hit the Rs 700 crore mark globally. In the process, the film has also helped several local single-screen theatres in the country.
The film crossed the Rs 150 crore milestone on its second Monday in Hindi language, and managed to sustain strong momentum despite a 37.32% drop from its second Friday collections. In its second weekend, Kantara: Chapter 1 recorded impressive numbers of Rs 7.10 crore on Friday, Rs 14.37 crore on Saturday, and Rs 14.65 crore on Sunday. On Monday, the film dipped to Rs 4.45 crore; however, it still reflected a solid trend, bringing the film’s total domestic collection to Rs 150.67 crore.
