Initial estimates indicate that the film collected around ₹0.42–0.50 crore on Day 9 (Saturday). This jump from Friday’s ₹0.30–0.36 crore range is in line with typical weekend patterns for English-language titles that depend heavily on urban multiplexes.

The improvement began with stronger afternoon shows, followed by healthier evening and late-night turnout. While the film still operates on a niche scale, the Saturday bump shows that its core metro audience remains engaged well into Week 2.

Metros Continue Their Dominance, Mass Circuits Still Quiet

Premium screens in Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, and Chennai once again contributed the majority of Day 9 revenue. Formats like IMAX and high-end multiplex chains saw occupancy that held steady through the evening, mirroring the film’s Week-1 behaviour.

Mass belts, however, remain stagnant. Increased competition from Hindi and regional releases in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities has pushed the film further into a low-visibility zone outside metros. Day 9 results reinforce the divide—strong urban hold, negligible mass presence.

Running Box Office and Week 2 Outlook

With Day 9 added, the film is estimated to have crossed the ₹4.55–₹5.05 crore nett mark in India. The Saturday uplift is essential heading into Sunday, as a solid Day 10 would help the film maintain its screens for at least another week.

If Sunday mirrors or improves upon Saturday’s bounce, Week 2 could close at a reasonably stable level, given the film’s niche target group and limited reach.

Overseas Markets Remain the Driving Force

The global box office remains the film’s strongest asset. Steady traction in North America, the UK, and key European markets ensures the film remains commercially secure internationally, even as India contributes a relatively small share.

With international numbers holding firm, the film’s worldwide performance remains well above its domestic trajectory.

What Day 9 Suggests for the Weekend Curve

Day 9’s improvement gives the film a respectable footing for the rest of the weekend. If Sunday maintains the upward trend, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t will likely post a consistent Week 2—steady, contained, and driven almost entirely by metro multiplexes.
Despite its limited scale in India, the film continues to find its rhythm among urban cinegoers, ensuring a stable, if modest, theatrical run.
