Now You See Me: Now You Don’t Day 8 Box Office Collection: Second Friday Shows a Controlled Decline
Early estimates for Day 8 (Friday) suggest that the film collected around ₹0.30–0.36 crore net, marking a typical second-Friday dip of roughly 15–20% from Thursday’s performance.

Given the film’s modest Week 1 total of ₹3.83–4.55 crore, this soft Friday was anticipated. The hold remains stable within metros, but the lack of expansion into mass circuits continues to cap its India trajectory.
Despite the drop, the film’s consistent urban occupancy indicates that it may still post a steady—and possibly slightly improved—performance over the weekend if premium multiplexes show a boost on Saturday and Sunday.

Urban Multiplexes Continue to Anchor the Film’s India Run

Just as in Week 1, the film’s Day 8 revenue was largely driven by premium screens in:

* Mumbai

* Delhi-NCR

* Bengaluru

* Pune

* Hyderabad

* Chennai

These centres have remained the backbone of the film’s India numbers, especially for English-language thrillers with brand recognition. Late-evening shows, IMAX formats, and upscale multiplex chains continue to give the film its only consistent push.

Tier 2 and Tier 3 circuits, however, remain negligible contributors. Increased competition from Hindi and regional releases in Week 2 has further limited the film’s visibility outside metro markets.

Week 1 Recap: Steady but Limited Performance

The film’s weekly movement demonstrated consistency but not growth:

* Day 1 (Fri): ₹0.60 crore

* Day 2 (Sat): ~₹1 crore

* Day 3 (Sun): ₹1–1.50 crore

* Day 4 (Mon): Stable hold

* Day 5 (Tue): ₹0.45–0.55 crore

* Day 6 (Wed): ₹0.40–0.48 crore

* Day 7 (Thu): ₹0.38–0.45 crore

With steady declines and no major jumps, the film wrapped Week 1 on predictable lines, supported entirely by its niche but loyal urban audience.

Global Box Office Still the Film’s Strongest Pillar

Worldwide, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t continues to outperform its India box office by a significant margin. Originally opening to US$8.4 million on Friday and weekend projections of US$20–25 million, the film’s international traction remains strong.

A solid reception in North America, the UK, and European markets ensures that the film remains commercially secure globally—even as its India box office remains modest.

What Day 8 Means for the Week 2 Outlook

The controlled but noticeable drop on Day 8 sets the tone for a measured Week 2 run. The film may maintain its low but steady collections in metro multiplexes, though shrinking screen counts and rising competition are likely to reduce its week-to-week footprint.

Unless there’s a significant bump over the weekend, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t appears headed for a stable but limited run in India—remaining a niche performer domestically while thriving on the global stage.
