​‘Jaat’ box office collections day 7 (Live): Sunny Deol starrer sees sharp drop, ends first week with Rs 53.97 cr – The Times of India

Gopichand Malineni’s action drama ‘Jaat,’ starring Sunny Deol and Randeep Hooda, opened to a strong response at the box office. According to the Sacnilk report, the film managed to collect an impressive Rs 53.97 crore in its first week of release.
While the first four days showed solid upward momentum, peaking at Rs 14 crore on Sunday, the film witnessed a notable drop in collections during the weekdays, with Wednesday seeing a particularly sharp dip.
Day-wise collection highlights
The film kicked off its theatrical journey on a promising note with Rs 9.5 crore on its opening day. While Friday saw a decline to Rs 7 crore, it quickly recovered over the weekend with Rs 9.75 crore on Saturday and Rs 14 crore on Sunday, driven by positive word-of-mouth and star power. However, the Monday blues hit hard, with collections dropping to Rs 7.25 crore, followed by Rs 6 crore on Tuesday.
The biggest surprise came on day 7 (Wednesday), when Jaat collected only Rs 47 lakhs, a massive drop from its earlier figures. This steep fall may be attributed to content fatigue or stiff competition from newer releases.
Star cast and occupancy stats
Featuring a powerful ensemble, including Sunny Deol, Randeep Hooda, Vineet Kumar Singh, Saiyami Kher, Regina Cassandra, and Jagapathi Babu, ‘Jaat’ was expected to maintain a strong hold throughout the week. However, the Hindi version recorded an overall occupancy of just 6.08% on Wednesday, reflecting a clear decline in audience engagement.
Despite the midweek slump, the film has crossed the Rs 50 crore milestone within its first 7 days, marking it as a moderately successful venture so far.
Earlier, while promoting his latest action-packed film ‘Jaat’, Sunny Deol opened up about how the emotional honesty of his characters—especially when showing anger—resonates strongly with audiences. “People mostly remember me when I’m standing up and fighting for something in a film. No one really talks about the romantic scenes,” he shared in an interview with Bollywood Life.
Reflecting on his approach to intense roles, Deol explained that his portrayal of anger is always rooted in real emotion. “Every feeling has its own place. Anger comes when something truly affects you, and I always try to make that feel real in my performances,” he said.
