Aaryan's Box Office Journey: A Surprising Fifth Day Twist
The highly anticipated film Aaryan has been on a rollercoaster ride at the box office since its release. After a strong start, raking in an impressive ₹4.84 Cr India net over its first four days, the movie's fifth-day performance has left many scratching their heads. But here's where it gets controversial... While the initial days saw a steady rise and fall in collections, the fifth day witnessed a dramatic drop, with earnings plummeting to a mere ₹0.18 Cr India net. What could be the reason behind this sudden dip? Is it a sign of audience fatigue, or is there more to the story?
And this is the part most people miss... The film's occupancy rates, particularly in Tamil regions, tell a fascinating tale. On Tuesday, November 04, 2025, Aaryan recorded an overall Tamil occupancy of 13.31%. Breaking it down, morning shows saw a modest 10.97% occupancy, while afternoon shows fared slightly better at 15.65%. However, evening and night shows registered a shocking 0% occupancy. Could this be a reflection of shifting audience preferences or a strategic scheduling misstep?
Let's dive into the regional breakdown for a clearer picture. Chennai led the pack with an 18.50% overall occupancy, while Pondicherry and Trichy followed closely with 25.50% and 21.50%, respectively. On the other end of the spectrum, Trivandrum and Mumbai struggled, with occupancies of just 1.00% and 5.00%, respectively. Bold question: Could regional audience tastes be the determining factor in Aaryan's box office fate?
