Ashwin Kumar’s Mahavatar Narsimha isn’t just holding its ground at the box office—it’s thriving. After a modest start on Day 1, the mythological action drama saw a massive jump on Saturday, pulling in ₹4.70 crore across India. That’s more than double its opening day collection of ₹2.29 crore, and it’s clear audiences are loving this fresh take on ancient lore.
Why the Sudden Surge?
Word-of-mouth seems to be working in the film’s favor. Families and devotees are flocking to theaters, drawn by the film’s blend of high-quality animation and deep-rooted spiritual storytelling. The Hindi version led the charge with ₹3.25 crore (net), while the Telugu version saw an impressive 200% growth, raking in around ₹1.25 crore. Other dubbed versions added another ₹25 lakh to the tally.
