Typically, films that release on a Thursday witness a significant drop in box office collections on Friday, unless the day coincides with a holiday.
However, Natural Star Nani's HIT: The 3rd Case has defied that trend and is currently on a record-breaking spree.
After delivering a massive opening with the highest first-day numbers among all releases this week, the film continued its impressive run on day two, raking in an impressive 19 crore gross.
With this, the worldwide gross has surged past 62 crore in just two days, an exceptional feat by any standard.
As the weekend kicks off, advance bookings are showing highly encouraging trends, suggesting the film is poised for a blockbuster weekend at the box office.
If it continues this momentum, the Sailesh Kolanu directorial is well on track to cross the 100 crore gross mark by the end of its first weekend alone.
In the overseas market, particularly in North America, HIT: The 3rd Case has achieved yet another milestone.
The film has surpassed the $1.5 million mark and is steadily approaching a $2 million gross in its opening weekend.
This marks Nani’s 11th film to cross the $1 million milestone, placing him just behind Mahesh Babu, who has 12 such films to his name. HIT 3 also becomes Nani’s fourth film to exceed the $1.5 million mark.
At this pace, the film is well on track to achieve breakeven across all regions by the end of its opening weekend.
