Anubhav Sinha and Taapsee Pannu’s Assi may be making noise in the theaters, however the noise has not translated into validating numbers on the ticket windows, no less than on the opening day. Despite good word-of-mouth, the film couldn’t manage to enter the highest 5 Bollywood openers of 2026. Actually, it seems to have lost the opening battle to Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur’s Do Deewane Seher Mein as well!
Enters Taapsee Pannu’s Top 10 Openers!
Despite collecting only a fraction of her biggest hits, the film has found a spot amongst Taapsee Pannu’s biggest openers. Actually, the estimates suggest that with Anubhav Sinha’s film, Taapsee has already delivered the tenth biggest opening of her profession, replacing Saand Ki Aankh’s 48 lakh!
Assi Box Office Day 1 Estimates
As per the early trends, Assi managed to register a gap of 1.2 – 1.5 crore on February 20, Friday. The solo-led, gritty drama, the truth is, registered a modest occupancy of 7.38% on its first day in the theaters. The film also opened higher than Taapsee and Anubhav Sinha’s last outing, Mulk, which opened at 1 crore on the box office!
Only 5% Of Taapsee’s Biggest Opener
The largest opener of Taapsee Pannu‘s profession is Mission Mangal, which registered an enormous opening of 29.16 crore. Her latest outing managed to secure only 5% of her biggest opener on the box office!
Take a look at the highest 10 opening day box office earnings of Taapsee Pannu’s profession (India Net Collection).
- Mission Mangal: 29.16 crore
- Judwaa 2: 16.1 crore
- Chashme Baddoor: 5.18 crore
- Naam Shabana: 5.12 crore
- Badla: 5.04 crore
- Pink: 4.32 crore
- Manmarziyaan: 3.52 crore
- Thappad: 3.07 crore
- Mulk: 1.68 crore
- Assi: 1.2 – 1.5 crore*
Survival of the courtroom drama now depends entirely on word of mouth. Given the low occupancy on the opening day, the film will need an enormous hop over the weekend to sustain itself on the ticket windows.
