Sidharth Malhotra's fantasy film Vvaan has surpassed his previous box office openings, collecting Rs 33.25 crore in its first three days in India. The film, rooted in Chhath Puja traditions, has been performing well despite poor reviews, with ticket buyers favoring it over critics. Vvaan opened modestly on Friday with Rs 8 crore from 6,746 screens, but saw a significant increase to Rs 14 crore on Sunday across 7,135 screens.
India's total gross stands at Rs 39.65 crore, with overseas markets contributing an additional Rs 3.50 crore, bringing the worldwide total to Rs 43.15 crore. This strong performance marks a turnaround for Malhotra, who has had mixed box office results recently. The film has already surpassed the opening of his 2012 debut, Student of the Year, and is on track to overtake A Gentleman's lifetime total of Rs 38.33 crore.
The real test for Vvaan will begin on Friday when it faces competition from Drishyam 3, starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu. Produced by Balaji Motion Pictures and The Viral Fever, Vvaan also stars Tamannaah and Sunil Grover.
