Box office collection: 'Merry Christmas' is steady but slow
What's the story
Auteur Sriram Raghavan's sixth feature film, Merry Christmas, was released on January 12.
Although it generated strong buzz and garnered rave reviews from critics, it has failed to gain momentum like his previous sleeper hit Andhadhun, headlined by Tabu and Ayushmann Khurrana.
The neo-noir thriller experienced a slow second weekend and has a crucial week ahead to stay afoot at the box office.
