Prahaar, the courtroom drama that opened on 16 October, saw its sixth‑day collections dip to a modest ₹1.5 crore net— a 54.5 % slide from Tuesday’s ₹3.3 crore. Occupancy hovered at just 19.15 %, with morning shows barely 7.5 % and evening a 21.5 % crowd. The film logged 3,231 shows across India, pulling in 78,244 footfalls and pushing its worldwide total to ₹21.40 crore.
Nayyi Navelli, the comedy‑horror fantasy that has been a crowd‑pleaser, pulled in ₹2 crore net on the same day, a 54 % drop from Tuesday’s ₹4.35 crore. Its 12 % occupancy across 4,737 shows shows a steadier audience, and overseas it added 15 lakh rupees for a total of ₹2.65 crore. The film’s worldwide haul now stands at ₹27.19 crore.
When you stack the totals, Nayyi Navelli’s ₹27.19 crore overtakes Prahaar’s ₹21.40 crore by a clean ₹5.79 crore margin, reshuffling the Sunday box‑office chart and signalling a genre‑mix advantage. The fantasy’s higher occupancy in evening slots and a steadier overseas pickup have kept its momentum alive.
With Prahaar’s 54.5 % decline and an occupancy hovering below 20 %, the legal drama’s survival hinges on a sharp rebound. If it can reverse the trend before the next week, it might claw back the top spot; otherwise, Nayyi Navelli’s blend of laughs and chills is set to dominate the screens for the rest of the month.
