The Kannada origin animated film, Mahavatar Narsimha is continuing with its glorious run at the box office in Hindi, as the 5 day total of this Hombale Films production stands at a staggering amount of Rs 17.15 crore. After opening at Rs 1.25 crore on Friday, it has been an upward journey for this mytho-saga, as it scored Rs 3.00 crore on Saturday, followed by Rs 5.50 crore on Sunday.
Interestingly, the film scored a Monday bigger than Saturday due to an increase in showcasing, with collections of Rs 3.20 crore. Due to strong word of mouth, and push from religious groups, the film has seen another spike in business on Tuesday. Benefitting from the discounted Tuesday offer, Mahavatar Narsimha has seen a 30 percent surge in collections to score Rs 4.20 crore on its fifth day of run.
With this, the movie is now looking at a first week in the vicinity of Rs 22 crore, and strong trend is expected in the second week too, as the word around the film has started to gain momentum now. Targeted marketing, strong content and controlled pricing are the three key reasons for the success of Mahavatar Narsimha. The film is the first animated hit of Hindi Cinema since Hanuman (2005), and the magnitude of success here is a lot more than the 2005 success.
