Maalik box office collection day 4: Rajkummar Rao film faces stiff competition from Superman, crosses ₹15 crore
Maalik box office collection day 4: Rajkummar Rao, Manushi Chillar and Prosenjit Chatterjee-starrer Maalik released in theatres last Friday to fairly decent reviews. The film held its own in the first weekend despite the release of a big-budget international release in the form of Superman. Now, the latest update on Sacnilk states that the Rajkummar Rao film has crossed the ₹15 crore mark in four days.

Maalik box office update
The latest report states that, as per early estimates, Maalik earned ₹1.34 crore on its fourth day of release. This is the lowest single-day collection for the film so far, which is not surprising given that it is on a Monday when the audience footfall usually shows a decline. Maalik made an opening day haul of around ₹3.75 crore and went on to show some growth on the weekend, collecting ₹5.25 crore on both Saturday and Sunday, respectively. The total collections of the film now stand at ₹ 15.59 crore.
On Monday, Maalik had an overall 8.22% Hindi Occupancy in theatres.
Maalik outshined the other Hindi release of the week, Aankhon ki Gustakhiyaan, which stars Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor in her acting debut. However, the film faces stiff competition from David Corenswet-starrer Superman, which has collected over ₹25 crore in India in its opening weekend, significantly more than the two Bollywood releases combined.
