After being in theatres for six days, Shaitaan has achieved one major milestone, that of crossing Rs. 75 crores mark at the box office. The film opened quite well at Rs. 15.21 crores on the partial holiday of Maha Shivratri and ever since then has been quite stable. While Monday too held well at Rs. 7.81 crores, the collections hardly dropped till Wednesday when Rs. 6.27 crores came in.

The film has sustained rather well despite Ramzan being on and today too it would hang in there well with at least Rs. 5.75 crores on the cards. For a film like this which has its base in black magic, the only factor that could bring in such kind of big numbers was a notable star cast, and presence of Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan has made this happen. Otherwise, such films are typically low cost affairs with unknown/not so notable star cast and the best case scenario is to reach till Rs. 50 crores lifetime.

That number was actually surpassed in the opening weekend itself and now the film has reached Rs. 75.78 crores. Today, it will cross Rs. 80 crores mark and then over the weekend it will enter Rs. 100 Crores Club. The film will easily cross Rs. 125 crores in its lifetime and it would be the journey from there till Rs. 140 crores, which would be closely observed.
