'I'm Game' Box Office: Early Buzz Fades, Collections Drop
10 Sep
Summary
- Dulquer Salmaan's return film 'I'm Game' shows declining box office momentum.
- The film's Day 7 collection dropped by 17.9% from the previous day.
- Overseas markets have outperformed domestic collections for 'I'm Game'.
Dulquer Salmaan's much-anticipated return to Malayalam cinema with 'I'm Game' has seen its initial box office momentum falter. The film, marking Salmaan's return to Mollywood after nearly three years, has garnered mixed reviews since its release, with the latter half drawing particular criticism.
On its seventh day in theaters, 'I'm Game' earned Rs 92 lakhs in net collection across India. This represents a 17.9% decrease from the Rs 1.12 crore collected on Day 6, with an overall occupancy rate of 16.4% from 1,819 shows. The film's cumulative net collection in India now stands at Rs 22.54 crore.
Globally, 'I'm Game' has amassed Rs 43.55 crore in gross collections. The overseas market has shown stronger performance, contributing Rs 17.25 crore to the worldwide total. However, the consistent decline in daily earnings indicates challenges in sustaining audience engagement.
The film's narrative centers on Dan John, a wealthy gambler whose life changes after an accident and transplant, leading to supernatural encounters he must investigate. Antony Varghese plays a significant role, especially in the film's latter half.
