Vidyut Jammwal’s action flick “Crakk: Jeetega Toh Jiyegaa” hit theatres on February 23rd, 2024, coinciding with “Cinema Lovers Day” in India. The film, touted as India’s first “extreme sports action film,” opened to a decent, if not earth-shattering, box office performance, grossing an estimated ₹5 crore (approximately USD 610,000) worldwide on its first day.
Breakdown of Earnings:
- India: The film’s primary market, India, contributed the bulk of its earnings, raking in ₹4.00 crore to ₹4.45 crore (approximately $490,000 to USD 540,000) on its opening day. This figure falls slightly short of Vidyut Jammwal’s personal best opening day record.
- Overseas: The film’s overseas performance was modest, garnering an estimated ₹1 crore (approximately USD 120,000) on its first day.

Looking Ahead:
The film’s future performance remains to be seen. Its success will depend on factors like word-of-mouth reception, critical reviews, and its ability to sustain audience interest over the coming days.
