Bollywood Box Office Battle: Haq Vs. Jatadhara — Which Movie Will Hold Ground on Its First Sunday?

Mumbai, Sunday, November 9, 2025: The first weekend box office battle between the two new releases, Yami Gautam-Emraan Hashmi’s courtroom drama Haq and Sonakshi Sinha-Sudheer Babu’s supernatural thriller Jatadhara, is about to reach its peak. Both films hit the screens on Friday. This Sunday is the most important day for both movies. The collections today will decide which film has truly won the audience’s heart.

The box office race has shown a clear leader so far. Haq has taken a better opening. It also showed massive growth on its first Saturday. Jatadhara, on the other hand, is struggling to find its footing, especially in the Hindi belt. The focus is now on the final day of the opening weekend. Which film will post the higher Sunday total?

Haq Vs. Jatadhara Box Office Day 1 and 2: The Scorecard

The Friday (Day 1) opening collections gave the first hint of the winner. Haq, a hard-hitting social drama, earned an estimated ₹1.65 crore net in India. This was a decent but average start for the film.

Jatadhara, which is a bilingual release (Telugu and Hindi), struggled more. Its Day 1 collection across both languages was just around ₹1.07 crore net. This was a very low start.

The Saturday Surge for Haq

Saturday (Day 2) brought great news for the makers of Haq. The film registered a massive jump in its collection. This was thanks to the very positive word-of-mouth it received. Trade reports suggest Haq collected approximately ₹3.35 crore on its second day. This takes its two-day total to a strong ₹5.10 crore net. This great jump has set the film up for a solid opening weekend.

Jatadhara Continues to Struggle

For Jatadhara, the jump on Saturday was not as big. The supernatural thriller is still struggling, particularly with its Hindi version. It added around ₹1.1 crore to its tally on Day 2. The two-day total for Jatadhara now stands at a modest ₹2.17 crore net. It is clear that Haq has taken a huge lead over Jatadhara by a big margin.

Haq Vs. Jatadhara Sunday Showdown: The Big Prediction

Today (Sunday) is the biggest box office day. It will give a final shape to the opening weekend total for both films.

Haq Box Office Day 3

• The film is enjoying excellent reviews and strong word-of-mouth. This will greatly help today.
• Analysts predict Haq will see another good jump on Sunday.
• The estimated Day 3 collection for Haq is expected to be in the range of ₹3.8 crore to ₹4.5 crore net.
• If this estimate holds true, Haq could finish its opening weekend with a fantastic total of around ₹9 to ₹10 crore net. This would be a great result for a film with a lower opening buzz.

Jatadhara Box Office Day 3

• The film has received mixed reviews. This affects its ability to grow.
• The collections for Jatadhara are not expected to show a massive jump today.
• Its Day 3 collection is likely to be around ₹1.2 crore to ₹1.5 crore net.
• This would push its first weekend total to just over ₹3 to ₹3.5 crore net.

Bollywood Box Office Battle – Final Takeaway

The box office battle has an undeniable winner. Haq has clearly won the weekend race against Jatadhara. The film’s powerful story and performances by Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi have clicked with the audience. The positive reviews have translated into footfalls, especially on Saturday, and are expected to continue on Sunday.

Jatadhara is struggling even after being a bilingual release. It appears the film is finding it hard to attract audiences outside of the Telugu market.

A good Sunday collection is critical for Haq. It will ensure the movie has a strong hold on the weekdays. This will help it achieve a respectable final box office figure.
