Last Friday (September 5) turned out to be a big day for movie lovers with three major releases – Tiger Shroff’s action drama Baaghi 4, Vivek Agnihotri’s political drama The Bengal Files, and Hollywood’s horror thriller The Conjuring Last Rites. All of them entered their 2nd week yesterday.
While the Hollywood horror is leading strongly, the two Indian films are struggling with poor collections.
Baaghi 4 Box Office Collection Day 8
Tiger Shroff made his return with Baaghi 4, but the film has not matched the success of its earlier parts. On day 8, it earned only Rs 1.26 crore, bringing its India total to Rs 45.76 crore. The movie started with a solid Rs 12 crore opening, followed by Rs 9.25 crore on Saturday and Rs 10 crore on Sunday.
However, the collections dropped sharply during weekdays, closing the first week at Rs 44.55 crore. Compared to the earlier films – Baaghi (Rs 61.93 crore in 8 days), Baaghi 2 (Rs 118.55 crore), and Baaghi 3 (Rs 92.87 crore). The new film is the weakest performer despite high-octane action and Sanjay Dutt playing the villain.

The Bengal Files Box Office Collection Day 8
Vivek Agnihotri’s The Bengal Files has performed even worse. The film failed to attract audiences from the start and is struggling to cross Rs 15 crore in its first week. At more than three hours long, it explores Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots, but its heavy and graphic presentation has kept audiences away.

Even with big promotions and the filmmaker’s reputation after The Kashmir Files, the film has not managed to do well in theatres.
The Conjuring Last Rites Box Office Collection Day 8
On the other hand, The Conjuring Last Rites has emerged as the box office winner. In its second week, it collected Rs 2 crore on day 8, taking its India total to Rs 69 crore.

Strong word-of-mouth and the film’s gripping horror sequences have helped it stay ahead of its Indian competitors. The latest entry in the Conjuring franchise proves once again that it has a loyal fanbase in India.
