It’s no surprise that Housefull 4 came out on top among this year’s trio of Diwali releases. From October 25-27, 2019, the comedy sequel earned $904,808 from 315 theaters ($2,872 average) in North America, according to Box Office Mojo. That’s not a particularly robust per-theater average, so we’re probably looking at a final total short of $3 million.
The other two new releases wilted against the competition. Saand Ki Aankh earned $101,900 from 204 theaters ($500 average), according to Bollywood Hungama. Made in China was just behind with $72,349 from 95 theaters ($762 average).
War still raged in its fourth weekend of release, earning $80,866 from 59 theaters ($1,371 average), bringing its total to $4,566,986.
Other Hindi and multilingual releases still in North American theaters:
- The Sky Is Pink: Week 3; $10,741 from 14 theaters; $767 average; $713,682 total
- Dream Girl: Week 7; $5,786 from seven theaters; $827 average; $2,332,417 total
- Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy: Week 4; $924 from four theaters; $231 average; $2,622,634 total
