The Conjuring Last Rites week one India box office performance reflects both strength and slowdown. The Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson-led horror film collected ₹66 crore in 7 days, securing a strong first-week total despite a dip after its opening weekend.
The latest entry in The Conjuring franchise opened to impressive occupancy, fueled by loyal fans of the horror series. Multiplex audiences in metros such as Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru drove initial numbers, while single screens contributed moderately. By mid-week, collections began to slow, signaling the film’s shift from a high-demand opener to steady weekday business.
Trade experts note that ₹66 crore in its first week marks a solid figure for a horror film in India. Hollywood horror rarely sustains long runs in Indian theatres, but The Conjuring franchise has built a strong fan base since its debut. The mix of suspense, supernatural elements, and the established pairing of Farmiga and Wilson continues to draw audiences.
Social media buzz, combined with word-of-mouth reviews, played a key role in boosting footfalls early on. However, competition from new Bollywood releases slightly dented weekday collections. Exhibitors remain optimistic that The Conjuring Last Rites will hold steady in its second week, especially during evening and weekend shows.
The franchise’s consistent performance in India highlights the growing appeal of global horror films in the market. With ₹66 crore already in its account, The Conjuring Last Rites looks set to cross the ₹75 crore mark soon, depending on audience retention.
The week one India box office results confirm the franchise’s standing as one of the most bankable horror series in the country, even with competition.
