The Hollywood horror movie, The Conjuring: Last Rites starring Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson in the lead roles, slowed down after a good start at the Indian box office. Serving as the ninth and final instalment in the much-loved The Conjuring Universe, the latest Warner Bros Pictures’ outing wrapped its second weekend slightly under the Rs 75 crore net mark in India.
Directed by Michael Chaves, The Conjuring: Last Rites opened with a record Rs 16.90 crore, excluding paid previews of Rs 42 lakh. The horror flick wrapped its opening week at Rs 65.82 crore net in India, which is an impressive figure to say the least, though biz should have been higher given the extraordinary opening day.
Last Rites entered the second weekend by storming Rs 2 crore on Friday, followed by decent Rs 3.50 crore on Saturday. According to estimates, the Vera Farmiga movie added around Rs 3 crore to the tally on Sunday, taking the second weekend to Rs 8.50 crore net.
The total cume of The Conjuring: Last Rites is near Rs 75 crore net and the movie has emerged as the second highest grossing Hollywood horror movie in India. It remained only behind The Conjuring 2, which is likely to be surpassed by next week.
| Day | Box Office |
| Previews | Rs 0.42 crore |
| 1 | Rs 16.90 crore |
| 2 | Rs 17.00 crore |
| 3 | Rs 15.25 crore |
| 4 | Rs 4.90 crore |
| 5 | Rs 5.45 crore |
| 6 | Rs 3.25 crore |
| 7 | Rs 2.65 crore |
| 8 | Rs 2.00 crore |
| 9 | Rs 3.50 crore |
| 10 | Rs 3.00 crore (est.) |
| Total | Rs 74.32 crore net in India |
Though the overall picture of Last Rites looks very encouraging, its box office trends post the opening weekend have been pretty underwhelming. One of the major reasons behind its below par trends is mixed-bag audience reaction. Had the movie met with a positive reception, it would have easily surpassed the Rs 100 crore mark, which is now a bleak dream.

Teja Sajja’s latest release Mirai is performing decently at the box office. The fantasy action adventure film opened on a reasonable figure and then witnessed an upward trend over the weekend, indicating the acceptance of the subject among the Hindi audience.
Distributed by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions in Hindi, the Teja Sajja starrer debuted with Rs 1.40 crore net, which was lower than HanuMan’s Day 1 box office figure in North India. Mirai further recorded a good jump and collected Rs 2.40 crore on the second day, making a total of Rs 3.80 crore net in two days.
Directed by Karthik Gattamneni, Mirai netted an estimated Rs 3.20 crore on Sunday, registering a jump of 35 percent over Saturday. The total weekend cume of Mirai now stands at Rs 7 crore net at the Hindi box office.
So far the movie has witnessed a decent run in Hindi. The real test will begin now from its first Monday and then on the weekdays. If it manages to hold well, it will reach a respectable number in North India.
Mirai has recorded a lower opening weekend in Hindi compared to HanuMan. For the record, the Prasanth Varma-directed superhero movie closed its weekend at Rs 11.75 crore net in Hindi. Going by the current trends and buzz among the audience, Mirai is likely to remain much behind HanuMan at the box office, unless the movie witnesses a miraculous jump ahead.
The movie will face a clash with Jolly LLB 3, which is slated to hit the big screens from September 19, 2025.
