Kantara Chapter 1 joins the mighty 500 Cr Club on its 9th day at the box office. The 9th day, which is Friday, gives good momentum for the film on night shows and indicates a promising weekend.
Another good thing for the film is that the 9th-day collections are slightly higher than the 8th-day collections. The spiritual drama made by Rishab Shetty, Kantara Chapter 1, also becomes the 2nd Kannada film to join the 500 Cr club after KGF2.
If we look into the overall figures, the prequel of Kantara is the 4th film this year to join the 500 Cr club after Chhaava, Saiyaara, and Coolie.
By tomorrow the film will surpass Coolie’s final collections, and by Sunday it is likely to cross Saiyaraa’s full run collections and will settle at the top 2.
To reach the top 1 position, the film needs a solid box office run, as Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava has collected 800 Cr gross worldwide, and we must wait to know whether Rishab Shetty’s film can go there.
