Vivek Agnihotri’s much-anticipated film, “The Vaccine War,” entered the cinematic battleground on September 28, facing off against the laughter riot, “Fukrey 3.” However, the initial skirmish proved challenging, with the film managing a mere Rs 0.85 crore on its opening day.
The Vaccine War Day 3 Box Office Collection
Despite the star-studded cast featuring Pallavi Joshi, Nana Patekar, Anupam Kher, Girija Oak, and Raima Sen, “The Vaccine War” struggled to gain momentum on its second day, collecting a meager Rs 0.9 crore – falling short of its lackluster opening day figures. Vivek Agnihotri’s directorial venture witnessed its highest earnings, raking in an impressive Rs 1.50 crore on Saturday. This surge in box office numbers injected a much-needed boost, breathing new life into the film’s prospects. While the initial days may have posed challenges, the Sunday spectacle showcases the potential for “The Vaccine War” to carve its niche and captivate audiences as it continues its cinematic journey.
Sunday Brings Hope
In a surprising turn, the tables flipped on the film’s third day, a Sunday spectacle that witnessed the highest earnings of Rs 1.50 crore. This marked a significant uptick, but the cumulative box office haul remained shy of the Rs 5 crore milestone at Rs 3.25 crore. The film’s overall occupancy on Sunday was noted at 16.30%, with the night shows peaking at an encouraging 20.32%. These figures hint at a potential silver lining for “The Vaccine War” as it strives to find its footing in the box office arena.

Clarification Amidst Controversy
Pallavi Joshi, a National Film Award recipient for her stellar performance in “The Kashmir Files”.
