The Meghna Gulzar film released in theatres on Friday and was received well by critics. Let us see how it performed on Sunday Daayra box office collection day 3 : Kareena Kapoor and Prithviraj Sukumaran promised a raw and gritty procedural with Daayra and delivered just that.
The film has been steady at the box office so far.
The latest update from Sacnilk states that Daayra has collected ₹ 1.75 crore on Sunday, by 10 PM. On Saturday too, the film had managed to collect ₹ 1.75 crore. This shows that the film has stayed steady at the box office over the weekend, after collecting ₹ 1 crore on Friday. This brings total India gross collections to ₹ 5.40 crore and total India net collections to ₹ 4.50 crore so far.
Kareena addressed the contrast between her role in Daayra and her association with Rohit Shetty’s cop universe, where police characters are presented in a larger-than-life commercial setting. The HT review of the film stated, “There is an unmistakably filmi quality to some of the characterisations. Kareena, for instance, brings a distinct screen presence to Ajooni, although some of her lighter expressions can feel slightly at odds with the gravity of the investigation. I also find the choice of her name, Ajooni, interesting in this context. Whether there is a deeper intention behind the name or it is simply a character choice, the film doesn’t spell it out.”
“Every director operates in a different universe,” she said, describing Rohit Shetty’s cop universe as “larger-than-life” and Meghna’s world as “grounded, realistic, and complex. “As an actor, I feel fortunate to straddle both worlds comfortably,” Kareena told news agency ANI. The word appears in the Ik Onkar, “Ajooni saibhang”, broadly referring to one who is beyond birth and death, self-created.
