Main Vaapas Aaunga Vs Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata Box Office Collection Weekend 1: Diljit Dosanjh Film BEATS Kangana Ranaut Movie

The first weekend box office battle between Main Vaapas Aaunga and Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata has produced a clear winner. While both films witnessed growth over their opening weekend, Diljit Dosanjh’s emotional drama managed to pull ahead of Kangana Ranaut’s historical thriller at the domestic box office. Backed by positive word of mouth and steady audience turnout, Main Vaapas Aaunga recorded stronger collections on all three days of its opening weekend. Meanwhile,   showed encouraging signs of growth but fell short of matching its competitor’s numbers despite promotional efforts, including a nationwide Buy One Get One ticket offer.

According to the latest estimates from industry tracker Sacnilk,  earned Rs 2.50 crore on its first Sunday, marking its highest single-day collection since release. The film had opened with Rs 1.15 crore on Friday before witnessing significant growth on Saturday with collections of Rs 1.85 crore. Sunday’s performance further strengthened the film’s box office run, taking its total India net collection to Rs 5.50 crore after three days.

The steady upward trend suggests that audiences have responded positively to the film’s emotional plot and performances. The growth from Friday to Sunday also indicates strong word-of-mouth support, which could help the film maintain momentum during the weekdays.

Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, on the other hand, also experienced growth during its opening weekend but remained behind Main Vaapas Aaunga in terms of overall earnings. Sacnilk reports that the film collected an estimated Rs 1.45 crore net on Sunday, matching its Saturday collections. The film had started its box office journey with a modest Rs 1 crore net on Friday before witnessing nearly 45 percent growth on Saturday. After three days, Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata’s total India net collection stands at Rs 4.25 crore.

In an attempt to boost footfalls and capitalise on positive audience feedback, the makers introduced a nationwide Buy One Get One ticket offer during the weekend. However, the strategy was not enough to help the film surpass Main Vaapas Aaunga‘s earnings.

So, with Rs 5.50 crore in its opening weekend compared to Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata‘s Rs 4.25 crore, Main Vaapas Aaunga has won the battle at the domestic box office so far.

Directed by Imtiaz Ali, Main Vaapas Aaunga stars Diljit Dosanjh, Naseeruddin Shah, Vedang Raina, and Sharvari in key roles. The film revolves around a 95-year-old man who suffers a stroke while desperately trying to travel to Pakistan. As he drifts in and out of consciousness, his grandson begins uncovering fragments of his pre-Partition past. The story explores the emotional scars left behind by Partition and examines how historical events continue to impact generations long after borders were drawn.

Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata takes viewers back to one of India’s darkest moments – the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks. The film focuses on the extraordinary courage displayed by the staff of Mumbai’s Cama Hospital during the attacks. Inspired by the real-life story of nurse Anjali Kulthe and her colleagues, the narrative highlights how doctors, nurses, and hospital workers risked their lives to protect patients amid the chaos. Pregnant women, newborn babies, and critically ill patients were among those whose safety became the hospital staff’s priority as terror unfolded across Mumbai. It stars Kangana Ranaut, Girija Oak, Smita Tambe and Asha Shelar.
