Deva Box Office Collection Day 2 – Breakdown
Day 1 – A Modest Opening
On its first day, Deva registered a domestic collection of approximately ₹5.5 crore, while its global earnings reached around ₹7.5 crore. Although the numbers were not record-breaking, they were in line with expectations, considering the film’s high-octane action sequences and Shahid Kapoor’s mass appeal.
Day 2 – A Promising Rise (2 February Update)
The second day showed an upward trajectory in collections, with various sources reporting ₹5.87 crore to ₹6.4 crore in earnings. This brings the total two-day domestic collection to somewhere between ₹11.37 crore and ₹11.75 crore, depending on the estimates.
- According to Hindustan Times, the film collected ₹5.87 crore on Day 2, bringing the total to ₹11.37 crore.
- Livemint estimates the total earnings at ₹11.75 crore, suggesting a higher second-day collection.
- Koimoi suggests a ₹6.4-₹7 crore earning for Saturday, showing a positive trend.
With this steady increase, Deva is expected to continue its upward trend over the weekend, benefiting from strong word-of-mouth and Shahid Kapoor’s star power.
Audience Response and Occupancy Rates
Despite an average opening, Deva gained momentum, evident from its increasing occupancy rates on Saturday (2 February):
- Morning Shows: 5.84%
- Afternoon Shows: 11.28%
- Evening Shows: 14.20%
The rise in audience turnout is an encouraging sign for the film’s long-term performance. If the trend continues, the film could experience a strong first-weekend finish.
Critical Reception – A Mixed Bag
Critics have praised Shahid Kapoor’s power-packed performance, highlighting his intensity and screen presence. However, some reviews criticized the screenplay and climax, stating that the film falls short in storytelling.
Despite the mixed critical reception, the film’s action sequences and mass appeal have managed to attract audiences, particularly in urban multiplexes and single screens.
Can ‘Deva’ Maintain Its Box Office Run?
With a promising Day 2 increase, Deva has the potential to cross ₹20 crore by the end of its first weekend, provided Sunday brings in strong footfall. The real test, however, will be in the weekday collections, which will determine whether the film enjoys a long box office run or slows down post-weekend.
For now, Shahid Kapoor’s action-packed avatar seems to be working, and if the positive momentum continues, Deva could prove to be a solid hit in his career.
