The Devil Day 5 Box Office Collection: Early Estimates and Occupancy Reports
The Devil, starring Darshan Thoogudeepa, had a solid start but saw ups and downs over the weekend. On day 4 (Sunday), it picked up with an estimated ₹4.2 crore net in India, thanks to family crowds and positive word-of-mouth in some areas. But as a weekday hit on day 5 (Monday), collections dipped as expected due to work routines kicking back in.
Early trends show day 5 bringing in around ₹1.2 crore net in India, a sharp drop from the weekend. This keeps the film on track to recover its budget but highlights the challenge of sustaining momentum mid-week. Fans are hopeful for a rebound, but competition from new releases could play a role.
Evening update: Evening shows on day 5 saw better footfall with about 30% occupancy in India, pulling in an estimated ₹0.5 crore. Worldwide, similar trends held with limited overseas screens reporting 25-35% fill rates, boosted by urban centers.
Afternoon update: Afternoon slots had moderate turnout at 20% occupancy across Indian theaters, adding roughly ₹0.3 crore to the tally. Globally, occupancy hovered around 18%, with weaker response in non-Kannada regions.
Morning update: Morning shows started slow with 15% occupancy in India, contributing about ₹0.2 crore. Worldwide figures mirrored this at 12-15%, as early timings drew fewer viewers on a Monday.

About The Devil and Future Prediction
The Devil is a Kannada political action thriller directed by Prakash Veer, featuring Darshan Thoogudeepa in a gritty role after his legal troubles. The story follows a man’s fight against corruption, blending high-stakes drama with intense fights that appeal to mass audiences. Released on December 11, 2025, it aimed to capitalize on Darshan’s fan base in Karnataka.
Mixed reviews have noted strong performances but pointed out pacing issues in the second half. Still, the film has done well in single-screen theaters, recovering most of its ₹20 crore budget already. Overseas, it’s limited to diaspora pockets, adding modest earnings.
Looking ahead, weekend 2 could see a lift if word spreads positively, potentially crossing ₹40 crore worldwide. But with holidays approaching and rivals lining up, sustaining weekday crowds will be key. Overall, it’s a decent comeback for Darshan, though not a blockbuster yet.
