Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer Thamma has crossed Rs 78 crore in just five days since its release, emerging as a strong contender at the box office.
The horror-comedy continued its steady run on Saturday, earning an estimated Rs 13 crore on Day 5, taking its total collection to Rs 78 crore. The film recorded a 19.72% occupancy on Hindi screens that day.
Thamma opened with Rs 24 crore on its first day, followed by Rs 18.6 crore and Rs 13 crore over the next two days. It has already surpassed the lifetime collections of Varun Dhawan’s Bhediya (Rs 68.99 crore) and the domestic earnings of Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari (Rs 60.35 crore).
Ayushmann Khurrana thanked fans on social media, saying the love for Thamma is a blessing from his family, his late father, and the audience. Rashmika Mandanna revealed she faced challenges shooting the song Tum Mere Na Hue after a foot fracture, but continued promotions and shoots against medical advice.
