Sunny Deol’s ‘Jaat’ Maintains Momentum at the Box Office on Day 8

Sunny Deol’s latest action drama Jaat continues its steady run at the box office, showing resilience even as it enters its second week in theatres. The film, directed by Gopichand Malineni, features Deol in a powerful, mass-appealing role that has resonated with fans of high-energy action cinema.

 “Jaat, starring Sunny Deol in the lead, continues its steady run at the box office on Day 8. Known for its high-octane action scenes and engaging storyline, the film showcases Deol in his signature massy avatar as he takes on the powerful criminal Ranatunga, played by Randeep Hooda.” Released on April 10, the film has remained consistent in its performance, particularly in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. It has especially appealed to male audiences who admire the action-heavy style that Deol is known for. “Jaat holds steady on Day 8 at the Box Office. Jaat, which was released on April 10, has been in theatres for over a week.

On Day 8, midday trends show that the film is holding steady, though there hasn’t been much movement during the afternoon shows. A slight drop in collections is expected on this second Thursday. Now, all eyes are on the film’s performance in the evening and night shows. According to Sacnilk.com, Jaat earned around 1.52 Cr India net on its eighth day.” Despite the minor dip, the film is tracking well toward a solid first-week collection. “The action-packed drama earned ₹4 crore on its first Wednesday. With a seven-day total of ₹55.75 crore, the Sunny Deol-starrer is expected to reach just under ₹60 crore by the end of today.” Produced by Mythri Movie Makers and People Media Factory, Jaat has drawn mixed reactions from audiences. While it scores high on adrenaline-pumping sequences and Deol’s commanding presence, it falls short in areas that typically broaden a film’s appeal. “The film produced by Mythri Movie Makers and People Media Factory, isn’t a complete entertainer and doesn’t fully connect with mass audiences across the country. The film received mixed reviews from viewers.” “While Sunny Deol carried Jaat with his intense action scenes and strong screen presence, the film lacked elements like romance and appealing music that could have drawn in a wider audience, especially women. It mainly targets male viewers in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities who enjoy action films or are fans of the 'Gadar 2' star.” Jaat also represents a notable return for Sunny Deol, whose last blockbuster Gadar 2: The Katha Continues set high expectations. Prior to that, Deol faced a string of underperforming films. “The film marks Sunny Deol’s return to the big screen after two years. His last film, 'Gadar 2: The Katha Continues', was a massive blockbuster. However, before that, his films like 'Chup: Revenge of the Artist', 'Blank', 'Bhaiaji Superhit', and 'Mohalla Assi' didn’t perform well and were considered flops.” As Jaat heads into its second weekend, industry watchers are keen to see if evening and night shows can give the film the boost it needs to cross the ₹60 crore milestone, reinforcing Sunny Deol’s star power at the box office.
