Evil Dead Burn India 2nd Saturday Box Office: Hollywood horror film holds well against The Odyssey, nears Rs 30 crore mark

The Hollywood horror entry Evil Dead Burn is proving its staying power at the Indian box office. Despite facing strong competition from the release of The Odyssey, the film managed an impressive 80 percent spike in collections this past Saturday. It earned 2.25 crore on its ninth day, bringing its total domestic intake to 28.50 crore so far.

Industry analysts expect the movie to wrap up the weekend with total earnings between 30 and 31 crore. While it has already surpassed the lifetime performance of its franchise predecessor, which finished at 39 crore, reaching the 50 crore milestone remains the next goal. To hit that figure, the film needs to maintain steady ticket sales through the upcoming work week and into its third week of release.

This year has been notable for international films in India. Several projects outside of major established franchises are exceeding initial commercial expectations. Films such as Project Hail Mary and The Devil Weds Prada 2 have found audiences beyond what trade trackers predicted. Evil Dead Burn sits in this category as a successful venture that continues to hold its ground against big-budget rivals.

Collectors and trade analysts are watching these numbers closely as the film aims for a clean hit status. Future performance depends on how the movie sustains momentum during the weekdays. Stay tuned for further updates on how this horror title fares against the competition at the theaters.
