In September 2025, the supernatural horror film 'The Conjuring: Last Rites' hit theaters in India, and it has since emerged as a surprise hit at the box office. The film, which stars Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson in the lead roles, is the 9th installment in the popular 'The Conjuring' franchise, and this legacy helped generate genuine interest among audiences.
Despite facing some mixed reviews from critics and a lukewarm response from the audience, 'The Conjuring: Last Rites' managed to secure a hit verdict at the Indian box office. The film opened strongly, earning around 50 crores in its opening weekend. However, it later struggled to maintain that momentum, ultimately grossing 96.88 crores (including GST) over its 35-day theatrical run.
