As we close in on a week since its release, a glimpse into its earnings reveals a story of resilience and steady progress.
The Opening Act
“Rathnam” kicked off its journey with an encouraging start, collecting ₹2.45 Cr on its opening day. Despite the typical fluctuation in earnings, it secured a decent ₹2.15 Cr on the following day. This slight drop was not a sign of things to come, however, as the film demonstrated.
Weekend Surprises
The weekend brought a pleasant turn for “Rathnam.” The film experienced a resurgence, with a 6.98% increase in collections, touching ₹2.3 Cr on Sunday. This rebound illustrated the film’s ability to engage audiences, setting the stage for the weekdays.
