Vijay's Jana Nayagan has entered the later stage of its theatrical run, but the film is seeing a clear slowdown on weekdays. After showing some improvement during its third weekend, the action thriller witnessed a sharp drop on its third Monday.
Day 19 Box Office Collection
Jana Nayagan earned Rs 0.75 crore net in India on Day 19 from 1,976 shows. With this, the film's India net collection has reached Rs 193.05 crore, while its India gross stands at Rs 224.89 crore, according to Sacnilk.
The third Monday has so far recorded the film's lowest daily collection. The drop comes after a better third weekend, when the film earned Rs 2.55 crore on Day 17 and Rs 3.60 crore on Day 18.
Worldwide Collection
While the India numbers have slowed, Jana Nayagan continues to maintain a strong worldwide total. As per the latest Sacnilk figures, the film has collected Rs 318.09 crore worldwide, with its overseas gross standing at around Rs 93.20 crore.
Competition At The Box Office
The slowdown comes at a time when Jana Nayagan is facing competition from newer releases. Lokesh Kanagaraj's DC and Varun Tej's Korean Kanakaraju both arrived in theatres on August 7, adding to the competition for audiences and shows.
With fewer audiences heading to cinemas on weekdays and new releases competing for screens, maintaining the film's momentum is becoming more difficult.
Collections So Far
Jana Nayagan opened with Rs 42.70 crore on Day 1, followed by Rs 21.15 crore on Day 2, Rs 28.90 crore on Day 3 and Rs 32 crore on Day 4.
The film then collected Rs 10.65 crore on Day 5, Rs 8 crore on Day 6, Rs 6.10 crore on Day 7 and Rs 4.05 crore on Day 8, taking its first-week India net to Rs 153.55 crore.
