Dhamaal 4 Box Office: Day‑4 Numbers Slip Slightly

Four days into its theatrical run, Dhamaal 4 has started to feel the inevitable wobble that many comedies face after the opening fireworks. The film, headlined by Ajay Devgn, managed to pull in a respectable ₹4.6 crore on its debut, but day‑4 numbers slipped to around ₹1.1 crore, signaling a softening momentum.

It’s not entirely unexpected. Comedy, especially the slap‑slap style that Dhamaal is known for, tends to burn bright and then dim a bit as the novelty wears off. Audiences who rushed in for the first laugh‑fest are now taking a breather, perhaps waiting for word‑of‑mouth to settle before deciding on a second or third viewing.

Contrast that with Riteish Deshmukh‑Arshad Warsi’s latest collaboration, which, despite opening a day later, has kept a steadier pace. Their brand of witty banter and situational humor seems to be resonating, keeping footfall relatively stable. While Dhamaal 4 collected about ₹13 crore in total over the first four days, the Deshmukh‑Warsi duo is nudging close to the same figure, albeit on a slightly longer timeline.

Industry insiders point to a few factors behind Dhamaal 4’s dip. The film’s release coincided with a string of regional releases, diluting screen availability. Moreover, the ongoing heatwave has kept some potential movie‑goers indoors, preferring streaming over cinema trips.

Still, the bigger picture remains optimistic for the comedy genre. The modest drop doesn’t spell disaster; rather, it reflects a typical box‑office curve where the first‑day hype tapers off. If the film can sustain its charm and maybe attract a few family groups on the weekend, the overall earnings could still turn profitable.

Looking ahead, distributors are hopeful that the upcoming weekend, with a few school holidays on the calendar, will give Dhamaal 4 a second wind. Meanwhile, the Deshmukh‑Warsi combo appears set to ride its own wave, keeping audiences laughing and theatres humming.
