GDN Box Office Trails Rocketry By 45%
11 Aug
Summary
- GDN collected 3.15 crore in its first four days.
- The film's four-day collection is 45% less than Rocketry.
- GDN requires strong word-of-mouth to recover costs.
R Madhavan's biographical drama, GDN, has garnered a total of 3.15 crore in its first four days of release. The film, which premiered on August 7, experienced a steady weekend and a minor drop on its first Monday, earning 0.46 crore on that day. The initial collection for the film was 0.53 crore.
Comparatively, GDN's four-day earnings trail significantly behind Madhavan's previous biographical film, Rocketry: The Nambi Effect, which collected 5.71 crore in its initial four days. GDN is currently trailing Rocketry by approximately 45%.
Directed by Krishnakumar Ramakumar, GDN portrays the life of inventor and engineer Gopalswamy Doraiswamy Naidu, often called the 'Edison of India'. The film is set in pre-independent India and highlights Naidu's innovations and struggles against powerful authorities.
At its current pace, GDN, a mid-budget film, may struggle to recover its production costs. The movie will depend heavily on positive word-of-mouth to boost its daily box office performance and reach profitability.
