The Marvel superhero film earned an estimated Rs 4-4.25 crore nett on Tuesday taking its overall total collection to an estimated Rs 74 crore nett.
According to reports on boxofficeindia.com, the film will likely end its first week with a collection of about Rs 81-82 crore nett. If the film can hold strong during its second weekend, it will cross the Rs 100 crore mark in the coming days.
Lack of competition will ensure the business is healthy on its second Saturday and Sunday.
According to the latest reports, filmmaker Taika Waititi left a ton of surprises in the editing room, including appearances by Lena Headey, Jeff Goldblum and Peter Dinklage. In a report on Insider, the director shot scenes with the two ‘Game Of Thrones’ stars but deleted them because they weren’t ‘good enough’.
“I wrote the thing so when you cut anything it’s a little bit of a challenge to yourself because you’re like, ‘Am I not that good? Should I have seen this coming?’ But every film I’ve done I’ve probably cut the same amount out,” Waititi recently told the portal.
“When you go into the edit you just never know. A scene on its own could be the funniest thing or most intriguing thing, but sometimes those things if you keep them in will just make the movie screech to a halt. So you have to do what’s best for the film,” he added.
“And if you ask any of those actors who were cut out, Jeff Goldblum, Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage, they all understand how it works,” the director continued. “They have been in the game long enough. But that’s just the way I look at things.”
Waititi would not reveal anything about the scenes in which Headey, Goldblum or Dinklage appeared, saying: “I’m not going to give you a moment because this is my way of telling you. I don’t want people to see the deleted scenes because they’re deleted for a reason: They aren’t good enough. The scenes were not in the movie and that’s it.”
Headey’s cut role in ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ resulted in a $1.5 million lawsuit against her by her former UK agency over unpaid commission fees. The actress reportedly earned $7 million for the role that didn’t make it to the final cut.
