  "account": "Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran's film Daayra, directed by Meghna Gulzar, is encountering difficulties at the box office. Despite its star-studded cast and compelling narrative, the movie has been experiencing a decline in collections since its September 18 release. On its fourth day of release, Day 4, Daayra generated ₹45 lakh in net collections in India, marking a significant 74.3% decline from its Day 3 earnings of ₹1.75 crore. The film's total India net collection now stands at around ₹4.95 crore, while its India gross collection has reached around ₹5.93 crore. Overseas, Daayra earned an estimated ₹25 lakh on Day 4, bringing its overseas gross collection to approximately ₹1.75 crore, resulting in a worldwide gross collection of around ₹7.68 crore. Reports suggest that Daayra's budget is around ₹55 crore, though this figure has not been officially confirmed. If the reported budget is correct, the film's current box office performance would be deemed weak, as it fails to sustain momentum following its opening weekend, with a 74.3% drop on the first Monday indicating a substantial decline, especially for a film that requires ongoing theatrical presence to recover its production cost.",
