The 12-day number
“Mirzapur The Movie” has reached Rs 281.14 crore in worldwide gross after 12 days, according to Sacnilk data cited by The Times of India. The film, led by Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal and Ravi Kishan, opened theatrically on September 4, 2026, and is now closing in on the Rs 300 crore global mark.
India is supplying most of the momentum. Domestic gross sits at Rs 233.14 crore, while net collections are Rs 195.70 crore. Overseas gross has reached Rs 48 crore, roughly 17% of the worldwide total.
What the 12-day trend shows
After a strong first-week net of Rs 148.45 crore, the second week is settling into a lower but steadier gear. Day 12 added Rs 5.50 crore across 6,950 shows, matching Monday’s Rs 5.50 crore from 7,014 shows. That flat weekday hold matters because it suggests the film has found a floor, even if weekend spikes have cooled.
- First-week net: Rs 148.45 crore
- Second-week net so far: Rs 47.25 crore
- Total India net: Rs 195.70 crore
- India gross: Rs 233.14 crore
- Overseas gross: Rs 48 crore
- Worldwide gross: Rs 281.14 crore
Occupancy signals a night-show audience
Day 12 occupancy was 27.40% overall, slightly better than Monday’s 26.82%. The day-part spread is clear: morning shows started at 13.46%, afternoon rose to 27.92%, evening held at 27.54%, and night shows peaked at 38.62%. For exhibition and programming teams, that points to an urban, post-work audience rather than a broad family matinee crowd.
The OTT-to-theatrical layer
The source notes that the franchise’s OTT fan base is contributing to the box-office run. That is the important business story here. Streaming-native IP can generate fast opening numbers because the core audience is already built. But the second-week pattern suggests that once that core audience has been served, the film needs a wider theatrical reason to exist beyond fan allegiance.
For media planners, this run is a reminder to separate franchise heat from long-run potential. A Rs 25.75 crore opening day and a Rs 36 crore first Sunday point to strong pre-awareness. The lower second-week daily rate signals that the marketing challenge now is retention, not discovery.
Why Rs 300 crore matters
If the film crosses Rs 300 crore worldwide, it becomes a more valuable asset for the next distribution window. A global number that high changes the conversation around OTT licensing, satellite packaging and sequel economics. That is why the second-week hold matters beyond exhibitors: every additional crore improves the franchise’s leverage in later deals.
