Haiwaan fails to disrupt Mirzapur’s run
One of the biggest questions before the second weekend was whether the arrival of Haiwaan would slow down Mirzapur: The MovieSo far, the impact appears limitedAkshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan‘s Haiwaan opened to only Rs 3 crore on FridayWhile the weekend will give the film an opportunity to improve its numbers, its modest opening suggests that Mirzapur The Movie could have a relatively smooth run in the coming week.
Mirzapur The Movie occupancy on Day 8

What is Mirzapur The Movie about?
Directed by Gurmmeet Singh in his feature-film debut and written by Puneet Krishna, Mirzapur: The Movie continues the story and world established by the popular three-season series.
The movie brings back several familiar faces including Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Divyenndu, Jitendra Kumar and Ravi KishanThe cast also features Rasika Dugal, Shweta Tripathi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Harshita Gaur, Sheeba Chaddha, Rajesh Tailang, Mohit Malik, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Sushant Singh, Anjumm Sharma, Satendra Soni and Sonal Chauhan.
Can Mirzapur The Movie continue its strong run?
The second weekend will be important for the film as it attempts to maintain its momentum while new releases compete for screens and audiencesThe first single-digit day is a sign of a slowdown but not necessarily a concern at this stageWith a strong first week behind it and Haiwaan failing to make a major opening-day impact, Mirzapur: The Movie appears to be in a favourable position.
The film now has only Hanuman Ansh as a major competitor, with the Neem Karoli Baba biopic continuing its exceptional theatrical run and maintaining a double-digit collection streakIf Mirzapur: The Movie manages a healthy weekend jump, it could strengthen its hold in the second week and continue its impressive theatrical journey.
