Malang box office collection: Aditya Roy Kapur, Disha Patani's suspense thriller makes Rs 39.65 cr in opening week

Aditya Roy Kapur , Disha Patani , and Anil Kapoor -starrer  _Malang_ witnessed a promising collection after its opening week at the box office. The suspense thriller garnered Rs 3.20 crore on Thursday, pushing its total earnings to Rs 39.65 crore. Trade analysts note the Mohit Suri directorial needs to maintain its momentum at the ticketing booths even during its second week to register a healthy total. This may prove to be difficult for Malang since it will now clash with the Valentine’s Day fresh release —  Lov e Aaj Kal . The coming-of-age drama, starring Sara Ali Khan and Kartik Aaryan, has been directed by Imtiaz Ali. Check out the latest box office figures of the film

Malang has become Kapur’s highest-grossing film that features the actor in a solo lead over the opening weekend while Aashiqui 2 comes a close second with a collection of Rs 20.50 crore. The other films running alongside Mohit Suri’s drama are _Shikara_ ,  Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior , and  _Jawaani Jaaneman._   Shikara has approximately amassed Rs  4.95 crore during its opening week, reports Bollywood Hungama. Jawaani Jaaneman is faring well as compared to  Saif Ali Khan ’s past solo releases Chef,  Kaalakaandi ,  Bazaar , and  _Laal Kaptaan_ . Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior currently boasts of a whopping Rs 269.93 crore in its kitty.
