‘Deva’ Box Office Collection Day 3: Shahid Kapoor’s Film Success

Deva, Shahid Kapoor’s new action-thriller, showed minor growth in its box office collection on its third day. Sacnilk reports that the Rosshan Andrrews film collected ₹7.15 crore on Sunday. Its total domestic collection now stands at ₹19.05 crore. Hindi occupancy for the film stood at 15.34% on February 2.

A Remake With a New Twist

Deva is an official remake of Rosshan Andrrews’ 2013 Malayalam film Mumbai Police. While the essence of the original remains intact, the Bollywood adaptation presents a revised climax, adding a fresh layer of suspense.

The film features Shahid Kapoor as ACP Dev Ambre and Pooja Hegde as Diya Sathaye in pivotal roles. Other prominent actors include Pavail Gulati, Pravesh Rana, Kubbra Sait, Girish Kulkarni, and Manish Wadhwa.

Taran Adarsh Highlights Slow Growth

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to X (formerly Twitter) to share insights on Deva’s box office performance. On Day 2, the film saw 14.36% growth which he considered not enough after the slow start.

He said, ” #Deva sees wafer-thin growth [14.36%] on Day 2, but the all-important leap – much needed after a doltish opening- simply isn’t there. Ideally, the total for the two days should’ve been the opening day’s number. The film needs to claw back lost territory on Sunday.”

Adarsh elaborated further on how the collections are split:

Day 1 (Friday): ₹5.78 cr

Day 2 (Saturday): ₹6.61 cr

Total (first two days): ₹12.39 cr

Shahid Kapoor Praises Co-actor

During the promotions of the film, Shahid Kapoor praised his co-star Pooja Hegde, saying she has worked really hard to get to where she is. “Not everyone can make it on their own, and I appreciate that about her. Also, the way she dances—it’s very charming, and I really enjoy watching her perform,” he said.

Deva is a product of Zee Studios, Roy Kapur Films, and Malvika Khatri. The film will be hoping to carry on the momentum for the coming days with good word of mouth and an interesting story.
