Vishwak Sen’s Telugu thriller “Cult” opens to a modest start and then increases its box-office collections on day two. NDTV reports day-one earnings of about Rs 95 lakh net in India, with worldwide gross around Rs 1.30 crore, including overseas receipts. Times of India similarly cites an opening-day India gross of about Rs 1.10 crore and worldwide gross of about Rs 1.30 crore, describing the reception as mixed.
On Saturday, “Cult” sees stronger momentum. Times of India says day-two net collection reaches Rs 1.15 crore, bringing the worldwide total to around Rs 2.90 crore, and notes a reported 21.1% rise from day one to day two. Times of India also provides screening and occupancy details, including the number of venues and that night shows lead occupancy. Across outlets, the main difference is emphasis on the opening’s “moderate” nature versus the subsequent growth and show-level performance metrics.
