The Buckingham Murders Struggles at the Box Office on Day 7

Kareena Kapoor Khan’s latest venture, The Buckingham Murders, directed by Hansal Mehta, has not managed to make a strong impact at the box office. The film, which hit theaters on September 13, 2024, had a modest opening and has continued to face challenges in drawing large crowds. On Day 7, the film’s total box office collection stands at approximately ₹8.82 crore in India, and despite some positive reviews, it seems to be struggling to gain momentum.

Box Office Collection: Day 7 Breakdown

The film started with an opening of ₹1.15 crore on Day 1, followed by a jump over the weekend, reaching a peak of ₹2.15 crore on Sunday. However, after the weekend, the collections saw a significant drop, with the Monday and Tuesday earnings falling to ₹1.06 crore and ₹1.01 crore, respectively. By the end of its first week, The Buckingham Murders had amassed approximately ₹8.82 crore, far below expectations for a film headlined by Kareena Kapoor Khan.

Despite a relatively good start, the film’s box office performance is steadily declining, with Day 7 marking a particularly low point. The film brought in around ₹50-80 lakh on Wednesday, highlighting its struggle to maintain viewer interest beyond the initial release.

Hit or Flop?

Unfortunately, The Buckingham Murders appears to be heading towards a flop status at the box office. Produced on a moderate budget, the film was expected to perform well in metropolitan areas, particularly targeting multiplex audiences. However, limited screen releases and niche appeal have hampered its success. The film has received praise for Kareena Kapoor’s performance as a grieving British-Indian detective, but it hasn’t been enough to convert that critical acclaim into strong box office numbers.

The film’s limited release strategy and reliance on high-end multiplexes have not paid off as expected. While The Buckingham Murders was never positioned as a commercial blockbuster, its underwhelming box office figures are a disappointment, especially for a film featuring such a high-profile lead.

Looking Ahead: OTT Prospects

As the film’s theatrical run winds down, attention is shifting towards its potential on OTT platforms. Given its limited appeal in theaters, The Buckingham Murders is expected to find a new audience when it eventually releases on streaming services. With a niche plot and strong performances, the film may perform better with digital audiences who prefer more intense, character-driven narratives.

In conclusion, while The Buckingham Murders has garnered some positive critical reception, its performance at the box office has been lackluster, making it a likely flop in commercial terms. Its OTT release could still give it a second life, but its theatrical journey has been far from successful.
