Lokesh Kanagaraj's DC collected Rs. 6.50 crore on its fourth day, beating its opening-day Friday total of Rs. 5.25 crore by 23 per cent. The film has now grossed Rs. 30 crore in India across four days, with trade watchers projecting a first-week total near Rs. 40 crore.

Collections climbed steadily over the weekend — Rs. 5.25 crore Friday, Rs. 7.50 crore Saturday, Rs. 10.75 crore Sunday — before Monday's dip to Rs. 6.50 crore, still considered a strong retention number. The film, a modern take on Devdas starring Wamiqa Gabbi, performed well beyond Tamil Nadu, adding Rs. 9.50 crore there plus solid numbers in Kerala, Andhra Pradesh/Telangana, and Karnataka.

Kerala in particular tripled its opening day take by Monday, while the film's Rs. 30 crore gross puts it on pace for a self-declared 'Clean Hit' designation by week's end.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK

Every box office update reads like a press release because it basically is one, right down to the trade's own scorekeeping vocabulary like 'Clean Hit.' Whether a director's acting debut is any good remains, as ever, a question for people who watch movies rather than spreadsheets.
