The box office race is heating up, and Ayushmann Khurrana's latest film, Thamma, is making a remarkable run! Just four days into its release, the movie has already raked in an impressive 60 crore and is estimated to be sitting pretty at 63-64 crore.
But here's where it gets exciting: Thamma is just a stone's throw away from overtaking the fourth-highest-grossing film in the MHCU franchise! With only 2-2.5 crore to go, it's poised to dethrone Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon's werewolf flick, Bhediya, which currently holds the spot with a collection of 65.84 crore.
On its fourth day, Thamma witnessed a slight dip, earning 5-6 crore, which is a 58% drop from the previous day's 14.45 crore. Despite this, the horror comedy still managed a decent occupancy of 11.38% during the morning and afternoon shows on Friday.
For Ayushmann Khurrana, Thamma marks a significant milestone as his sixth-highest-grossing film, surpassing the lifetime collection of Article 15. It's now eyeing the next target, AndhaDhun, which sits at 72.5 crore. Here's a look at Ayushmann's top 10 highest-grossing films:
- Dream Girl: 139.7 crore
- Badhaai Ho: 136.8 crore
- Bala: 116.38 crore
