The net collection of the film in its first release was 51 lakhs and it has already made 3x that amount on day one. Saturday being the weekend witnessed a surge in bookings. Kareena Kapoor Khan’s fresh release The Buckingham Murders is nowhere close in competing with this re-release.

After earning a staggering 1.65 crores on day one, Tumbbad has become the biggest re-release ever, leaving behind epic films like Sholay, Mughal-e-Azam and Rockstar. The current weekend will only mark a stark increase in its overall earnings.

It is interesting to follow this re-release because it is not a mainstream Bollywood project. It does not have any A-lister as its lead but it still managed to beat B-town superstars like Kareena Kapoor Khan and others. This would surely send the whole industry into a panic mode. This film only marks the fact that a good script and dedicated filmmaking are of prime importance to the cinema lovers.
