Mirzapur The Movie box office collection day 1: The gangster saga is set to rival the opening day collections of hits like Saiyaara and Awarapan 2.Prefer HTon Google Mirzapur The Movie box office collection day 1: The Mirzapur juggernaut is here. The experiment was new, and hence, the trade was tentative. Can a web series, no matter how popular, translate into a film that people would want to pay for and go watch in theatres? Mirzapur has answered that, and how. The film has taken a roaring start at the box office, giving Bollywood its biggest ever non-star-led opening day.Mirzapur The Movie box office collection day 1: The film stars Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Shweta Tripathi.Mirzapur The Movie box office updateThe Mirzapur movie was expected to open well ever since its first teaser was released earlier this year. But even its most ardent supporters were surprised by how well it has done, particularly in UP, Bihar, and Delhi, the centres traditionally open to mass action. Last week, most trade experts estimated an opening of ₹18-20 crore for the film, but they eventually revised their estimates upwards. According to Sacnilk, Mirzapur The Movie earned ₹24.75 crore on its opening day. This is breakneck pace. The film had an occupancy of 42.7% from 11,135 shows. Mirzapur: The Movie was released in Hindi and a Telugu dub. But the latter has largely drawn a blank so far, earning just ₹15 lakh. The bulk of the earnings have come from the original Hindi version, as was expected.Mirzapur trumps Saiyaara, Awarapan 2Normally, a ₹25+ crore opening in Hindi is the domain of the A-listers or select pan-India stars. Very few actors, apart from the three Khans, Akshay Kumar, and Hrithik Roshan, have managed this consistently. Mirzapur will put the likes of Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Divyenndu in this league. Mirzapur's opening day has seen it outgross recent sleeper hits such as Saiyaara ( ₹22 crore) and Awarapan 2 ( ₹21.50 crore).All about Mirzapur The MoviePresented by Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment, Mirzapur: The Movie is directed by Gurmeet Singh, written by Puneet Krishna, and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under the banner of Excel Entertainment.
