Dhanush’s ‘Raayan’ Has A Good First Saturday

‘Raayan’, starring Dhanush in the titular role, hit screens on July 26 and grossed a phenomenal Rs 12 crore on the opening day. It stayed strong on its second day as per the initial trends.

“I think, it will have another double-digit day. For Raayan. Films usually plateau on the second day in this market and then grow on Sunday. I am expecting something similar here too. The day 2 collection will be the same as that of the opening day or maybe a bit lower say 90% of it,” he said.

‘Raayan’ is also doing well in the Telugu states and Kerala. It, however, hasn’t found any takers in the Hindi market.
