Mumbai, March 26, 2024 – Despite sharing screens with other new releases, Swatantra Veer Savarkar keeps a strong hold at the box office.
The biographical drama, featuring Randeep Hooda as the titular character, shows promising numbers as it steps into the week.
Celebrating the life of freedom fighter Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, the film has caught attention nationwide.
Swatantrya Veer Savarkar Box Office Collection Day 4
Released last Friday, the film opened with a modest Rs 1.05 crore but saw an impressive leap over the weekend. Thanks to the Holi holiday, the movie’s earnings spiked, collecting Rs 2.25 crore both on Saturday and the following Monday, mirroring the festive uplift in footfall.
By the end of the four-day extended weekend, the film’s domestic gross climbed to Rs 8.25 crore, with the worldwide figures crossing the Rs 10 crore threshold.
| Day | India Net Collection |
| Day 1 [1st Friday] | ₹ 1.10 Cr |
| Day 2 [1st Saturday] | ₹ 2.25 Cr |
| Day 3 [1st Sunday] | ₹ 2.75 Cr |
| Day 4 [1st Monday] | ₹ 2.15 Cr |
| Total | ₹ 8.25 Cr |
Competitive Landscape
Swatantra Veer Savarkar wasn’t alone in the race; it stood up against Madgaon Express, a Kunal Kemmu-directed comedy, which itself is inching close to the Rs 10 crore mark.
Despite the competition and shared audience, Hooda’s biopic manoeuvred through the crowd, aided in part by attractive ticket offers. A Buy One Get One (BOGO) promotion over the weekend played its role in the film’s steady pace.
The Path Ahead
As we move past the festive weekend, Swatantra Veer Savarkar aims to retain its audience. However, challenges lie ahead with the upcoming release of Crew, a comedy featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tabu, and Kriti Sanon. This new entry stands to divert some attention away from Hooda’s historical drama.
The industry watches eagerly to see if Swatantra Veer Savarkar will maintain its momentum against these odds. The film’s unique portrayal of a freedom fighter’s life and its strategic release timing have so far played in its favor. As we look towards the coming weekend, it’s clear that the movie’s true test is just beginning.
Conclusion
With a narrative that intertwines patriotism and cinematic storytelling, Swatantra Veer Savarkar has carved a niche within the hearts of the audience.
As Randeep Hooda’s portrayal brings to life an iconic figure in India’s history, the film’s box office journey suggests a growing appetite for biographical dramas amid mainstream cinema goers.
Whether it will continue to ride the wave of its initial success or slow down in the face of new competitors is a story only time will tell.
