‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ box office collections day 5: Wild adventure roars at the Indian box office with the movie crossing Rs 50 crore mark

‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ is roaring at the Indian box office. The prequel to ‘The Lion King,’ saw a little dip in the first Monday collection; however, the first Tuesday collection shows positive signs.

According to the Sacnilk report, the movie on its first Tuesday was able to make around Rs.8.25 crores across multiple languages, leading to a business of Rs53.35 core in India in 5 days. If we look at the language-wise collection made by the movie on day 5, i.e. its first Tuesday, then in English it made Rs 2.85 crore, in Hind Rs 2.9 crore, Telugu Rs 1.1 crore, and Tamil Rs 1.4 crore. And if we look at the overall business by the end of the 5th day run across different languages, then in English the movie made Rs 19.8 crore, Rs 17.8 crore in Hindi, Rs 8.35 crore in Telegu and Rs. 7.4 crore in Tamil.

Here is the day-wise net collection of ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ in India

Day 1 [1st Friday]: ₹ 8.3 Cr
Day 2 [1st Saturday]: ₹ 13.25 Cr
Day 3 [1st Sunday]: ₹ 17.3 Cr
Day 4 [1st Monday]: ₹ 6.25 Cr
Day 5 [1st Tuesday]: ₹ 8.25 Cr
Total: ₹ 53.35 Cr
It can be seen that after a dip on Monday, the movie is trying to keep up with the pace. According to the early trends, on Day 6 the movie has already collected around Rs2 crore, and owing to the Christmas festivity, trade experts believe the film will see an upward graph. However, on Christmas one of Bollywood’s highly awaited films ‘Baby John’ has also been released, which will give ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ a tough competition in business. However, something concrete can only be said once the collection of December 25 of both movies comes out.

Meanwhile, ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ is getting beautiful reviews from all around. The ETimes review for the film reads, “Visually, Mufasa: The Lion King is a masterpiece. The film dazzles with its striking landscapes, from intense battles between Mufasa’s pride and white lions to avalanches. Particularly captivating is Milele, a dreamlike world crafted to enchant young cubs that’s a visual marvel. The untold story of how animosity brewed between Mufasa and Taka (later known as Scar) adds intrigue and surprises with the fact that the two were once friends. However, Taka’s transformation into Scar lacks the depth needed to make the rivalry truly compelling, as the real reason feels contrived.”
