Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared a post, citing its Saturday collection.
It read, "BIGGER SATURDAY... 'MIRZAPUR THE MOVIE' ROARS ON DAY 2... After a sensational Friday, #MirzapurTheMovie smashes the ball out of the stadium on Saturday.
"IMPORTANTLY, this growth has come despite the additional boost the film enjoyed on Friday due to the #Janmashtami festivities... In most cases, business tends to dip the day after a holiday / partial holiday - but not in this case.
"The Saturday surge is a clear indication that #MirzapurTheMovie has been embraced and accepted by the janta janardhan.
"Wait, picture abhi baaki hai... Sunday should also score BIG, with #MirzapurTheMovie eyeing a ₹95 cr [+/-] 3-day weekend - an EXCEPTIONAL figure by any standard."
