HIT 3 Box Office Collection Day 2: The highly anticipated HIT The Third Case, delivered a respectable collection of Rs 21 crore on its opening day. But as the trend of failing numbers continued throughout the country, the second day saw HIT 3’s collections drop by almost 50%. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the Nani-starrer earned Rs 10 crore on its second day at the box office. While this is a huge drop, the movie has managed to surpass the total nett earnings of its predecessor, HIT 2.
HIT 2 had actor Adivi Sesh at the centre. But the film opened to a weak collection of Rs 6.4 crore, which further dipped the next day to Rs 5.35 crore. After a tough and slow 21 days at the Telugu box office, the film could only amass Rs 25.92 crore. However, its sequel, led by Nani, already sits at Rs 31 crore in India nett collection after just two days at the box office.
The occupancy rates of the film slowly rose throughout the day, as the morning and afternoon shows managed 34% and 54%, respectively, and the evening and night shows managed 54% and 66%, respectively. There is no doubt that the film is going to have a bigger impact on the box office than its predecessor. All of this is thanks to the involvement of Nani, who is a much bigger star.
Directed and written by Sailesh Kolanu, who has helmed all the other HIT projects, the cast of the film includes Nani, Adivi Sesh, Srinidhi Shetty, Rao Ramesh, Niveta Thomas and Brahmaji. HIT 3 has been compared to the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal (2023), Haneef Adeni’s Unni Mukundan-led Marco (2024) and Nikhil Nagesh Bhat’s Kill (2023), featuring Lakshya.
The actor quickly defended the film and dismissed the comparisons by saying, “I don’t think HIT 3 should be put in the same bracket as Animal, Kill, or Marco. HIT 3 follows a different grammar. When you watch the film at a stretch, everything fits so naturally that the violence won’t be an issue. You won’t feel the intense portions are out of place. Once the lights go off, people will be completely immersed in the world of HIT 3.”
