Metro In Dino Day 4 India Box Office: Anurag Basu's movie holds BUT at very low levels on 1st Monday; Nets Rs 2.40 crore
The Day Wise Net India Collections Of Metro...In Dino Are As Under
Metro...In Dino Has Positive Word Of Mouth Going By The Hold; But Collections Remain Underwhelming
The film, a spiritual sequel to 2007's Life… In A Metro, features a stellar cast including Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Pankaj Tripathi, and Fatima Sana Shaikh. It explores modern relationships in urban settings. Despite positive reviews, its box office performance remains underwhelming.
The film has performed best in urban centers like Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Kolkata, and Delhi. However, unlike its predecessor, the film's music has failed to become as big as its predicessor, despite being really soothing to the ears. A hit soundtrack could have pushed the opening weekend closer to Rs 25 crore, with lifetime collections having a chance to go past Rs 50 crore.
Metro...In Dino's Box Office Trend Suggests A Finish In The Rs 30-35 Crore Net Range
With new releases arriving this Friday, Metro… In Dino's screen count and showtimes will shrink, in turn hampering its run. The film's total cost, including production and marketing, is estimated at Rs 100 crore, with Rs 70 crore already recovered through non-theatrical deals. To break even, it needs at least Rs 55 crore net in India. Current trends suggest lifetime collections of Rs 30-35 crore; a number well short of the target.
Better Opening Could Have Done Metro...In Dino A Big Favour
The 70 percent Monday hold is encouraging, showing some audience loyalty in urban markets. Yet, the low absolute numbers and looming competition make a robust box office run unlikely. Metro...In Dino needed a stronger opening to leverage its positive word-of-mouth. As it stands, the film's theatrical performance may not cover its remaining costs, marking a financial loss to the film's makers.

Zee shareholders approve appointment of directors
New Delhi: Shareholders of media and entertainment company Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd have approved the appointments of Divya Karani as an independent director and Saurav Adhikari as a non-executive director on the board of the company. While Zee said the approvals reflected shareholders' confidence in the board, proxy advisory firms iAS and SES had recommended against ratifying Adhikari's and Karani's appointments. Zee said its board has been making efforts to enhance its guidance to the management and strengthen the governance framework with policies. 'As part of this approach, the composition of the board is also being enhanced by enlisting experienced members from diverse sectors,' it added. Karani comes with over three decades of experience spearheading advertising and media agencies across India, South Asia, the UK and Asia Pacific. Previously, she served as the CEO of Dentsu Media, South Asia, leading the agency for over 12 years. She currently serves on the Board of Kulfi Collective, a media network that builds brands and studios that function at the intersection of content, commerce and culture, as its chairperson and executive director. Adhikari also comes with over three decades of domain expertise in global businesses and markets across technology, FMCG and consumer durables sectors as an operations, general management and investment specialist. His prior experience includes senior global leadership and executive roles across HCL, Unilever and PepsiCo, amongst others. He is currently the founder and senior partner at Indus Tech Edge Fund I, a growth fund focused on globalizing India's technology ecosystem. Zee's shareholders have been unhappy with the extent of control the promoters have over the company despite their small stake. Following its failed merger with the Indian entertainment business of Japan's Sony Group Corp., Zee has set in motion a turnaround plan to cut costs and double down on growth-focused investments. Zee is developing new business units to expand its audience and augment revenue streams, as per an investor presentation published this month.
