2024 saw many old movies coming back to cinemas and scoring good results. Interestingly, some of the earlier flopped movies saw a verdict-challenging re-run and emerged as success stories. Here’s a look at the top opening-day box office collections of re-release movies this year.Â
Tumbbad tops the charts with the biggest opening; Nets Rs 1.50 crore on Day 1
Tumbbad, directed by Rahi Anil Barve and starring Sohum Shah in the lead, made history at the box office in its second inning. Originally a flop, the underrated gem stormed the box office in its re-release, thanks to its cult fan following and good marketing.Â
The horror-mytho took an opening of Rs 1.50 crore net and emerged as the biggest opener among all the re-releases of 2024. The movie ended its second inning by collecting Rs 31.35 crore net in India, taking its total box office collection to Rs 43.85 crore, including both theatrical runs.Â
With such a terrific theatrical re-run, Tumbbad also emerged as the biggest net grosser among all other re-releases in India.Â
Laila Majnu and Karan Arjun flirts for 2nd spot
Laila Majnu, starring Avinash Tiwary and Triptii Dimri and directed by Sajid Ali, emerged a success story at the box office in its re-run. The movie was originally a flop, however it saw a verdict-challenging re-release.Â
The second innings of Laila Majnu began with a solid opening of Rs 30 lakh net at the Indian box office that went on to smash around Rs 10 crore in its full run.Â
The tragic love story now rests at the second spot among the biggest re-release openers of 2024. However, the recently re-released movie Karan Arjun is flirting with its spot.Â
The 1995 blockbuster movie Karan Arjun, starring Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, opened in the vicinity of Rs 25 lakh to Rs 30 lakh net in its re-release (Nov 22, 2024). If we take the mid-figure of this range, Rs 27.50 crore net as its current opening, Karan Arjun will be regarded as the third biggest re-release opener of 2024. (Actuals will be shared tomorrow).
