Dhamaal 4, the latest instalment in the popular comedy franchise starring Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi, has crossed the ₹89 crore mark at the domestic box office despite experiencing the expected slowdown during the weekdays. Released in theatres on July 10, the film opened to mixed reviews from critics and audiences but managed to attract a sizeable crowd over its opening weekend.

After posting a respectable start, the comedy entertainer has seen a dip in collections as weekday footfalls declined, a trend commonly witnessed by commercial releases following the initial weekend rush. While the pace of earnings has moderated, the film has maintained a steady run and continues to add to its overall domestic total, taking its six-day collection to over ₹89 crore.

Directed as the fourth chapter in the long-running Dhamaal franchise, the film reunites several familiar faces, including Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi. The franchise has built a loyal fan base over the years with its slapstick humour, ensemble cast and family-friendly entertainment, factors that have continued to draw audiences despite mixed critical reception for the latest instalment.

One of the biggest talking points following the film's release has been its post-credit scene, which confirms that Dhamaal 5 is already in development. The teaser at the end of the film hints at the continuation of the franchise, while writer Farhad Samji has been attached to pen the script for the next instalment. The announcement has generated excitement among fans, signalling the makers' confidence in expanding the comedy series.

Industry observers note that Dhamaal 4 will now rely on strong weekend collections and positive word-of-mouth to sustain its theatrical run. With the film approaching the ₹100 crore milestone, its performance over the coming days will be crucial in determining how quickly it reaches the benchmark, particularly as new releases arrive in cinemas.

Despite the weekday decline, Dhamaal 4 remains among the better-performing Hindi releases currently in theatres and has demonstrated the enduring popularity of the franchise. Whether it can maintain momentum in its second weekend will be closely watched by exhibitors and trade analysts, especially as audiences continue to respond to established comedy franchises led by star-studded ensemble casts.
