Sonu Sood’s Inspiring Journey: Just 0.43 Crore Short of Smashing Hindi Year-Opener’s Record!
Sonu Sood’s directorial debut, “Fateh,” has made an impressive mark at the box office, defying expectations despite fierce competition from multiple releases during the Pongal and Sankranti festivals. Over its first six days, “Fateh” has amassed a total collection of 15.57 crore. This action thriller, both written and directed by Sonu Sood, indicates his successful transition behind the camera.
Remarkably, “Fateh” has outperformed the first major release of 2024, Katrina Kaif’s “Merry Christmas,” co-starring Vijay Sethupathi. This suspense thriller only managed a lifetime collection of 16 crore. As a comparison, “Fateh” is nearing that benchmark in merely a week, showcasing Sood’s growing box office draw.
The film witnessed a slight slump on its sixth day, January 15, earning 1.51 crore, a 25% drop from the previous day’s 2.04 crore. The film is projected to end its first week with a collection just over 17 crore. Here’s a quick look at the day-wise box office breakdown: Day 1 brought in 2.61 crore, Day 2 earned 3.97 crore, Day 3 reached 4.13 crore, Day 4 dropped to 1.31 crore, followed by a rise on Day 5 with 2.04 crore, and Day 6 with 1.51 crore.
Comparatively, “Fateh” has achieved tremendous success over Sonu Sood’s prior venture as a lead in the 2016 film “Tutak Tutak Tutiya,” which made just 2.6 crore. This marks a remarkable 496% increase over the lifetime earnings of that film, showcasing Sood’s evolving prominence in the film industry.
As new releases like “Emergency” and “Azaad” hit theaters this coming weekend, it remains to be seen how “Fateh” will perform amidst fresh competition. Keep an eye on its ongoing journey at the box office!
