Dhamaal 4 has opened with a respectable ₹13.75Cr net on its first day, taking its lifetime India net collection to ₹13.75Cr.
A decent-to-strong opening for the fourth instalment of the long-running comedy franchise, though it falls short of the highest openings seen by big-budget entertainers in recent times.
The film has delivered a solid opening, particularly driven by family audiences and the nostalgia associated with the Dhamaal franchise. The combination of Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, and Arshad Warsi continues to attract viewers looking for clean, mass-friendly comedy. Early audience reactions have been largely positive, with many describing the film as an entertaining, no-brainer watch with good doses of slapstick humour.
However, critical reception has been mixed. While some reviewers appreciated the film as a decent family entertainer, others found the humour repetitive and the narrative lacking freshness. Despite this, the film appears to be working better with audiences than with critics, which is often the case with franchise comedies.
With a reported budget of ₹200Cr, Dhamaal 4 will need sustained collections over the weekend and strong word-of-mouth to justify its cost. The overseas opening of ₹5Cr is average and adds some buffer to the worldwide total.
