  "account": "On its opening day, Yami Gautam's latest film Nayyi Naveli brought in a box office collection of Rs 4.58 crore globally. The film, released alongside Rajkummar Rao's Prahaar, garnered Rs 3.25 crore across 6,281 screens in India. However, it had a dismal occupancy rate of just 11%, with roughly 1.5 lakh attendees watching the movie. Nayyi Naveli's strongest presence was in the National Capital Region and Mumbai, but even there, the turnout fell short of expectations. Despite the low attendance, the film outperformed Rajkummar Rao's Prahaar, which collected Rs 2.35 crore on its opening day. Additionally, Nayyi Naveli surpassed the Hindi version of Rajinikanth's Jailer 2, which earned Rs 2.75 crore from 3,850 shows. Yami Gautam, who won a National Award for her role in the critically acclaimed Haq (2024) and Article 370 (2024), returned to the big screen with Nayyi Naveli, her first release of the year. While the film's opening was better than Haq's Rs 2.10 crore gross, it still lagged behind Article 370's impressive Rs 6.61 crore debut. The latter film went on to earn a massive Rs 105 crore worldwide. Critically acclaimed in 2024, Yami's performance in Article 370 had generated high expectations for Nayyi Naveli. However, the film received negative reviews, casting doubt on its box office potential. It remains uncertain whether a festive weekend surge in attendance will help the film or if it will face difficulties sustaining its theatrical run.",
