MUMBAI, India | September 11, 2026 —
Box Office Collection Today delivered a dramatic Thursday result as Mirzapur: The Movie moved within touching distance of the ₹150 crore mark in India, Hanuman Ansh continued its extraordinary fifth-week run, while Yash’s Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups suffered another sharp slowdown.
The biggest surprise came from Hanuman Ansh. Even on Day 35, the film reportedly collected around ₹10 crore India net on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Mirzapur: The Movie remained the dominant new Hindi release and added approximately ₹10.55 crore on Day 7, taking its estimated India net collection to around ₹148.45 crore.
Toxic, however, moved in the opposite direction. The Yash-starrer reportedly managed only around ₹39 lakh on Day 16.
The Thursday numbers have created a fascinating box-office battle heading into the new weekend.
Mirzapur: The Movie Moves Close to ₹150 Crore
Mirzapur: The Movie has completed a powerful opening week.
The film reportedly earned approximately ₹10.55 crore India net on Thursday, its seventh day in theaters.
That pushed its estimated seven-day India net total to around ₹148.45 crore.
The film had opened strongly and benefited from the enormous popularity of the Mirzapur franchise.
Its Hindi version continues to generate most of the theatrical business.
After a huge opening weekend, collections naturally slowed during weekdays. However, the film has maintained enough momentum to approach the ₹150 crore milestone before entering its second weekend.
Friday’s collection will now determine how quickly it crosses that mark.
Mirzapur Day 7 Shows Normal Weekday Drop
Thursday brought another decline for Mirzapur: The Movie compared with Wednesday.
However, a weekday slowdown after a large opening weekend is common.
The more important test begins now.
If the film records a substantial jump on Saturday and Sunday, it could establish itself as one of September’s biggest theatrical successes.
Its second-weekend performance will also provide a clearer indication of its eventual lifetime collection.
Hanuman Ansh Delivers Stunning Day 35 Hold
While Mirzapur remains the biggest current Hindi attraction, Hanuman Ansh has produced the more unusual box-office story.
The film reportedly earned approximately ₹10 crore on Day 35.
That means a movie already running in its fifth week delivered business comparable to a major new release on Thursday.
Such sustained performance is rare.
The film has benefited from strong audience interest and remarkable longevity across several markets.
Its India net total has moved beyond ₹160 crore, according to current trade estimates.
More importantly, the fifth week itself has remained exceptionally strong.
Why Hanuman Ansh Is Still Pulling Audiences
Long theatrical runs depend heavily on audience recommendations.
Opening-day excitement can produce a strong first weekend, but films rarely remain powerful for more than a month without sustained audience interest.
Hanuman Ansh appears to have achieved exactly that.
Its weekend collections have repeatedly strengthened after weekday declines.
The pattern suggests that family audiences and repeat viewers continue to support the film.
That gives it another opportunity to add substantially to its lifetime collection this weekend.
Toxic Falls Below ₹1 Crore
The picture looks dramatically different for Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups.
The Yash-starrer reportedly collected only around ₹39 lakh India net on Day 16.
That represented a decline of approximately 35% from its previous day’s estimated ₹60 lakh.
The film’s second week reportedly finished at around ₹8.94 crore.
Its overall India net collection stands at approximately ₹248.24 crore, according to current tracking estimates.
The total remains substantial.
However, the sharp decline in daily collections indicates that the film has lost much of its initial theatrical momentum.
Toxic Had a Massive Opening
The slowdown becomes more striking when compared with the film’s opening.
Toxic arrived with enormous expectations around Yash.
Strong advance bookings and fan interest produced a huge initial response.
However, opening numbers tell only one part of a movie’s box-office story.
Audience retention becomes critical after the first weekend.
The latest daily figures suggest Toxic is now approaching the closing stages of its theatrical run in many markets.
Mirzapur vs Hanuman Ansh Becomes the Weekend Battle
The upcoming weekend creates an interesting contest.
Mirzapur: The Movie enters its second week with the advantage of being the newer release.
Hanuman Ansh, meanwhile, enters its sixth weekend with extraordinary momentum for a film this deep into its run.
Their trajectories are completely different.
One is trying to convert a blockbuster opening into a long theatrical run.
The other has already demonstrated exceptional longevity.
Friday evening and Saturday occupancy will reveal which film receives the bigger weekend boost.
₹150 Crore Milestone Next for Mirzapur
The immediate milestone for Mirzapur: The Movie is straightforward.
The movie is now within striking distance of ₹150 crore India net based on current estimates.
Crossing that level would strengthen its commercial position before its second weekend.
The next target would then become ₹200 crore.
Whether it reaches that benchmark will depend heavily on weekend growth and competition from new releases.
Hanuman Ansh Could Extend Its Dream Run
For Hanuman Ansh, every additional strong weekend now adds to an already remarkable box-office story.
The movie has survived several new releases.
It has also maintained substantial show counts more than a month after release.
If audiences continue turning up over the weekend, its final total could move considerably higher.
Friday Brings a Fresh Box-Office Test
Friday will reset the theatrical competition.
New releases will take screens from older movies, while weekend audiences could lift the strongest holdovers.
Mirzapur: The Movie needs a strong second Friday to maintain its blockbuster trajectory.
Hanuman Ansh will try to produce yet another weekend surge.
Toxic faces the toughest challenge because its daily business has already dropped sharply.
The next three days should therefore determine how the September box-office race develops.
For now, Mirzapur is approaching ₹150 crore, Hanuman Ansh remains the extraordinary long-run performer, and Toxic is rapidly losing theatrical momentum.
