Dhamaal 4: Ajay Devgn’s comedy caper makes good moolah at the box office. The film, which hit theatres this Friday, has managed to post a fair opening despite receiving mixed reviews from critics. Dhamaal 4 earned Rs. 15.5 crores nett on its first day, a number that looks impressive given its modest advances. The film is now showing a solid jump in bookings, setting it up for a very good first weekend.
The success of Dhamaal 4 mirrors the pattern seen with Akshay Kumar’s Welcome to the Jungle, which also had not-so-great advances but saw a strong opening driven by mass centres and walk-ins. This trend suggests that Dhamaal 4 is connecting well with audiences in heartland markets, where word-of-mouth is proving stronger than early promotional buzz.
With a star-studded cast including Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Sanjay Mishra, Arshad Warsi, Anjali Anand, Sanjeeda Sheikh, and Esha Gupta, Dhamaal 4 promises a blend of comedy and chaos. The film’s opening numbers indicate that the franchise still holds significant appeal, even as critical reception remains divided.
In a competitive Bollywood landscape with notable releases every week, Dhamaal 4 has carved out a decent space for itself. Its box office performance suggests that audiences are willing to overlook early criticism for a fun theatrical experience. As the weekend progresses, the film is likely to maintain steady momentum.
