Box Office Collection: Will Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par Release Stop The Golden Run Of Akshay Kumar Starrer Housefull 5?

Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par hits theatres on June 20, just two weeks after Akshay Kumar’s Housefull 5. The multi-starrer comedy arrived on June 6 and has already crossed Rs 120 crore mark in six days. The next release belongs to Mr Perfectionist, and many are wondering whether Aamir’s emotional drama will break its run.

Housefull 5, a cruise-set comedy-thriller, opened strong with Rs 24 crore on day one. The weekend pulled in over Rs 63 crore, and despite mixed reviews, the film stayed steady thanks to star power, multiple climaxes, and mass appeal. It’s on track to cross Rs 200 crore if the current pace holds.

Talking about Housefull 5’s current box office figures, it has already collected Rs 120 cr net in India within 6 days. The film had a strong start at the box office, earning Rs 24 crore on its opening Friday. It gained momentum over the weekend, collecting Rs 31 crore on Saturday (a 29.17% jump) and ₹32.5 crore on Sunday (a 4.84% rise). 

However, the film saw a sharp dip on Monday with Rs 13 crore (down 60%), followed by Rs 11.25 crore on Tuesday and Rs 8.5 crore on Wednesday. Despite the weekday drop, the film's total stands at an impressive Rs 120.25 crore in just six days.

Will Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par Effect The Momentum Of Housefull 5?

Sitaare Zameen Par is being seen as a spiritual successor to Aamir’s Taare Zameen Par. The film mixes sports, emotion, and comedy and stars Aamir, Genelia Deshmukh, and ten newcomers. It tackles mental health and inclusion, rare themes for a big-screen Bollywood release.

Aamir himself is cautious about the film’s box office prospects. He said, “There’s a fear that people only want action,” while explaining how action films dominate now. Instead of going wide on release day, the film will start with 1,250 screens and expand if audiences respond well.

The clash is not just about screen count. It’s genre versus genre (fun vs feelings). While Housefull 5 rides on chaos and laughs with over 5,000 screens, Sitaare Zameen Par is banking on strong word-of-mouth and emotional connection. If Aamir’s film clicks, it could cut into Housefull 5’s footfall.
