Deva Box Office collection Day 2: Despite arriving amid significant anticipation and at a time when it has only one formidable competitor in the market, the Shahid Kapoor and Pooja Hegde-starrer Deva is struggling at the box office, with its daily collections so far being much lower than those of the actor’s previous film Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. On Saturday, Deva earned only slightly more than Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya’s Sky Force (Rs 5 crore), which is already in its second week in theatres. However, the film did see an improvement on its second day compared to its opening-day figures, giving the makers hope that it could perform better on Sunday and build traction.
On Saturday, the action thriller recorded an India nett collection of Rs.6.42 crore, marking at 16.73 per cent increase from its release-day earnings of Rs 5.5 crore, taking its domestic total to Rs 11.92 crore, according to early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk. However, during the day, production house Zee Studios stated that the film’s first-day nett box office collection (NBOC) stood at Rs 5.78 crore and with a domestic gross box office collection (GBOC) of Rs 6.82 crore and an overseas GBOC of Rs 3.49 crore, Deva had surpassed the Rs 10.30 crore global gross mark on its opening day.

While Deva’s first two-day collection is better that Shahid’s Jersey (Rs.3.1 crore and 4.1 crore), it is significantly lower than his other recent films such as the superhits Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya (Rs 6.7 crore and Rs 9.65 crore) and Kabir Singh (Rs 20.21 crore and Rs 22.71 crore).
On Saturday, Deva, helmed by Rosshan Andrrews, reported a modest overall occupancy rate of just 13.07 per cent in the Hindi market. While morning shows started with a weak 5.84 per cent occupancy, the rate steadily improved throughout the day — rising to 11.28 per cent in the afternoon, 14.20 per cent in the evening and peaking at 20.96 per cent during night screenings.
