The Bengal Files Box Office Collection Day 4 saw a dip as it struggled to maintain momentum after its September 5, 2025 release. The political drama, set against Bengal’s turbulent past, sparked curiosity with its intense storyline but faced challenges post-opening weekend.
Meanwhile, Tiger Shroff’s Baaghi 4 continues to dominate the box office, nearing ₹35 Crore, showing stronger performance. While The Bengal Files still holds interest for its unique political narrative, it remains to be seen if it can regain traction and compete with the box office success of Baaghi 4.
Day 4 Performance: Monday Brings ₹1.10 Cr, Four-Day Total Hits ₹7.85 Cr
After a modest opening weekend, The Bengal Files experienced a sharp decline on its fourth day, earning ₹1.10 crore on Monday. This brought its total domestic earnings to ₹7.85 crore. The film’s performance was impacted by limited screenings, particularly in West Bengal, where it faced a ban, and strong competition.
Weekend Momentum Slows: Box Office Growth Shows Signs of Plateau
The film’s initial weekend showed promise, with collections of ₹1.75 crore on Friday, ₹2.25 crore on Saturday, and ₹2.75 crore on Sunday. However, the momentum slowed significantly on Monday, indicating a potential plateau in earnings. The release timing, coinciding with other major films, may have contributed to this decline.
A Tale of Two Thrillers: Story and Earnings Parallels
The Bengal Files and The Kerala Story, both political dramas highlighting communal tensions, present contrasting narratives and box office performances. The Kerala Story opened with ₹8.03 crore and achieved a worldwide gross of ₹303.97 crore, becoming an all-time blockbuster. In comparison, The Bengal Files has struggled to gain similar traction, reflecting differences in audience reception and market dynamics.
The Bengal Files Box Office Collection Day 4 vs Other Recent Releases
In comparison to other recent releases, The Bengal Files has underperformed. Baaghi 4, released on the same day, earned ₹4.25 crore on its fourth day, bringing its total to ₹35.50 crore. The Conjuring: Last Rites also outperformed The Bengal Files, with both films facing challenges due to overlapping release dates.
The Bengal Files faces significant challenges in the competitive box office landscape, with its earnings falling short of expectations. The film’s future performance will depend on audience reception and the competitive environment in the coming weeks.
