The Vvaan box office report

Taran Adarsh noted on the film's success and said, "The Vvaan is all set to hit the ₹50 crore mark in Week 1, thus emerging as a success story... The film stayed super-steady on Tuesday, getting that extra push from the discounted ticket rates. The Vvaan has found strong acceptance in the mass circuits, which have continued to deliver very well even on weekdays. Week 2 will be crucial, with the mighty #DrishyamTheConclusion arriving in cinemas... However, Friday [2 Oct] being a holiday should ensure that #TheVvaan continues to score despite the stiff competition."

This prediction proved to be true, as the latest update on Sacnilk states that The Vvaan collected ₹3.72 crore on its seventh day of release, taking the total India net collection to ₹52.01 crore by 8 PM. Even though it is the lowest single-day haul so far, the film has shown a strong foothold after the first week, despite strong competition from a number of releases, like Nani's The Paradise, and Marvel's re-release Avengers Endgame Encore. The film opened at ₹8 crore and on Sunday, minted ₹14.35 crore, which is still its highest single-day haul. On Monday, the film refused to slow down, collecting ₹5.25 crore. Tuesday showed a surprising growth, at ₹6 crore.

All about The Vvaan

The one aspect about The Vvaan that has grabbed everyone's attention is how the festival of Chhath Puja has been showcased in the film. A video has gone viral on social media from Muzaffarpur, Bihar, in which people were seen removing their footwear outside before entering the theatre to catch The Vvaan.

The film revolves around a rational Mumbai-based engineer named Rishi (Sidharth Malhotra) and his wife Mamta (Tamannaah Bhatia) as they travel to his ancestral village in Devanchal, Bihar, around the time of Chhath Puja.
