Ajey The Untold Story Of A Yogi Box Office Collection Day 3
Ajey’s third day at the box office? Not a blockbuster. The film collected around ₹0.45 crore in India on Sunday, bringing the three-day tally to ₹1.05 crore. That’s not exactly the stuff of headlines, but hey, in an era of endless releases, every story deserves its moment.
When I checked the numbers before heading out for my usual Sunday masala chai, I admit I wasn’t surprised. The buzz was mellow, and theaters were nowhere near packed. If you overheard folks chatting outside a multiplex, it was more about the heat (September in India, right?) than the film.
Day-Wise Breakup: Slices, Not Slabs
Right up front, here’s how the first weekend played out, in regular-guy spreadsheet style:
Day |
India Net Collection |
Change (+/-) |
---|---|---|
Day 1 (Friday) |
₹0.25 crore |

Day 2 (Saturday) |
₹0.35 crore |
+40.00% |
Day 3 (Sunday) |
₹0.45 crore |
+28.57% |
Total |
₹1.05 Cr |

Bringing us to a net total of ₹1.05 crore across three days. I guess, if you played cricket in school, that’s like nudging the singles and hoping for a boundary, someday.
Occupancy: A Tale of Empty Seats and Hopeful Evenings
Here’s the rundown from Sacnilk, with a dash of lived reality for flavor:
-
Morning Shows: 9.38%. If you find anyone in a morning show who’s not a die-hard Anant Joshi fan or related to the producer, let me know, I owe you a samosa.
-
Afternoon Shows: 30.17%. The crowd trickled in for shade and maybe a cold drink.
-
Evening Shows: 38.38%. Sun goes down, hopes go up, but only slightly.
-
Night Shows: 25.46%. Mostly, people catch a film after dinner. Or, honestly, escaping chores.
I’m not going to lie, seeing less than 10% in morning shows reminds me of high school holiday homework attendance, everyone promises, nobody shows up.
Why The Numbers? Sometimes Stories Don’t Sell Themselves
Ajey is, let’s be honest, a niche film. Biopics, especially political ones, can be tough. You need the right touch of drama, a lead that pulls, and word-of-mouth that feels urgent. It’s directed by Ravindra
Gautam, produced by Samrat Cinematics, starring Anant Joshi, Paresh Rawal, Dinesh Lal Yadav, and Pawan Malhotra.
But the film didn’t quite generate the feverish discussions you see around, say, SRK’s latest release.
My neighbors, usually up for a Saturday show, swapped tickets for a comedy night instead. “Biopic hai? Kabir Singh type drama hai kya?” one asked No, not really.
A Fan’s Shrug and A Hope
Personally, I think Ajey will find a second life on streaming, where weekends and occupancies don’t matter, just curiosity. If you’re into stories of yogic journeys and political twists, it’s worth a watch, but don’t expect stadium cheers.
Some movies run in empty theaters, and some fill up hearts at midnight on phones and laptops. Maybe Ajey is one of those, one way or another, every film has its destiny.
For the numbers, Sacnilk is the best pit-stop. For opinions? Grab chai, chat with strangers, and see what real people are watching. The box office doesn’t always know everything, but it tells a pretty interesting story.
