Mirai Box Office Collection Day 2
According to Sacnilk, the second-day collection for Mirai stands at ₹2.18 crore (India net, all languages). Not the kind of number you send frantic WhatsApps about at 2 AM, but it’s not a flop either.
Day 1 was massive: ₹12 crore. Then Day 2, the reality check, the “Saturday struggle,” kicks in. I have a friend who always insists opening day crowds are a fever dream, “the real verdict comes in the days that follow!” and he’s not wrong.

After the Friday frenzy, Saturday’s showing tells us how much of that first-day energy really stuck. Mirai’s drop-off is sharp but not shocking. Sci-fi, especially in India, can be a hard sell beyond fan circles.
You could sense the high expectations at the local multiplex. I overheard a guy say he’d camped out for HanuMan last year, but Mirai felt “less wild, more thoughtful.” It’s different, and that’s showing at the turnstiles.
Mirai Box Office Collection Day-Wise
-
Day 1 (Friday): ₹12 crore(rough date)
-
Big launch, wild buzz, and lots of fans showing up early.
-
-
Day 2 (Saturday): ₹2.18 crore(early estimate)
-
Classic second-day dip. Were weekend plans too optimistic? Who knows.
-
So, the total 2-day collection: ₹14.18 crore (India net, all languages).
You know how some movies are slow burners? Mirai’s trying to light that flame, even if the match is a little damp on the second try.
Mirai Box Overall Office Collection Day 2
Add up the two days and Mirai has pocketed ₹14.18 crore in India net. “Pocketed” feels generous, actually. The real trick will be on Sunday. Can Mirai bounce back, or is it destined to be one of those “strong opener, quick cool-off” flicks?
People Media Factory, the producers, must be biting their nails right now. Or maybe methodically calculating per-region admissions.
Depends on their personality. Sci-fi movies often face this dilemma: lots of curiosity on Day 1, worldwide gross 27.29 Crore, then the true word-of-mouth kicks in. If Mirai keeps drawing fans who actually like the genre (not just those following star power), it could stabilize in week one.
As someone who saw more than one “superhero” movie get lost in translation across regions, this isn’t the time for panic yet. Smart marketing and a steady Telugu audience could keep the film afloat.
Mirai Regional Highlights
Mirai’s box office story is really a tale of regions. Opening day, Telugu occupancy topped 68%, that’s almost standing room only in places like Hyderabad and Vizag. Hindi occupancy, though? Just about 11% on Day 1.
Saturday’s numbers haven’t been detailed yet, but the Day 1 gap in audience energy between Telugu and Hindi belts was palpable.
Quick, informal regional thoughts:
-
Telugu circuit: The lifeblood, families still showing up, especially where sci-fi tastes run a bit more adventurous.
-
Hindi circuit: Needs time. Maybe the buzz will spread, or maybe it’ll get lost among bigger Bollywood releases next week.
-
Southern metros: Chennai, Bengaluru had moderate engagement. Sci-fi isn’t a megahit genre here, but Mirai might stick around longer in city centers.
My neighbor, Mohan, texted me from Guntur. He’s a “watch-every-release” type, and even he admitted, “Bro, half the hall was debating the plot twists, other half just wanted popcorn refills.” Success, but not total immersion.
Mirai Day 2 Occupancy
Day 2 occupancy numbers aren’t as fiery as the debut. If you believe Sacnilk’s first batch of estimates, Mirai saw a drop in buzz after its grand launch.
On Friday, Telugu occupancy was close to 69%; for Hindi, it barely nudged into double digits. Saturday felt more subdued, word around social media says footfalls reflected the early reviews: “Good, but intense.” That tends to mean more selective crowds, fewer casual moviegoers.
-
Morning and afternoon shows seemed sluggish, probably because everyone’s catching up on sleep from last night’s cricket match (it’s September, after all).
-
Evening and night shows revived a bit, driven by hardcore fans, those who never miss a Teja Sajja film.
-
I saw a tweet joking, “Mirai’s occupancy graph looks like my mood swings.”, Honest, relatable, and not far from the truth.
Mirai Final Verdict
Mirai’s box office story on Day 2 is a little uneven, a little quirky, much like the movie’s plot twists. It’s what happens when movies try to balance star power with genre risks.
The drop on Saturday suggests more marketing legwork is needed, especially in North India. But the magic of Indian cinema? Surprises happen, especially after the first weekend.
Box office numbers are fascinating, but don’t let them be the only story. Mirai’s fans, especially those sci-fi die-hards, are still rallying.
Fingers crossed for a Sunday pick-up. Maybe next time, bring a friend, buy two buckets of popcorn, and argue about the ending like true movie junkies.
