Mahavatar Narsimha Box Office : Ashwin Kumar’s mythological animated film Mahavatar Narsimha is rewriting the rules of Indian animation cinema. Made on a modest budget of ₹15 crore, the film is now on the verge of hitting a massive ₹150 crore at the global box office — and it’s only Day 14!
₹114.72 Crore in India Alone!
According to early estimates from industry tracker Sacnilk, the film collected ₹1.92 crore (net) on Wednesday, bringing its total India net box office collection to an impressive ₹114.72 crore. That’s a huge number, especially for an animated movie in India — a genre that rarely sees these kinds of numbers.
Final official figures for Day 14 are still awaited, and the film could end up even higher once updates come in.
Global Reach Expands: Australia & New Zealand Release Next
After performing exceptionally well in North America, the makers of Mahavatar Narsimha are now gearing up for its international release in Australia and New Zealand on August 7 (Thursday). More global territories are expected to follow.
So far, the animated mythological drama has earned ₹5.15 crore from international markets through limited screenings, pushing its worldwide total to ₹132.25 crore.
Out of this, the India gross collection stands at around ₹127.1 crore, which includes both net and tax-inclusive figures.
North America Numbers Are Strong
In North America, one of the key overseas distributors, Prathyangira Cinemas, reported a gross of over $400,000 (approx ₹3.3 crore). For an Indian animated feature, this is a solid number, especially with minimal marketing and limited shows.
Released in Multiple Languages – Pan India Appeal
While Mahavatar Narsimha is originally a Kannada-language film, it has also been dubbed in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, allowing it to tap into a much wider audience across India.
This multi-language release strategy has worked wonders, helping the film stay strong at the box office even after two weeks.
What Experts Are Saying
Film trade expert Sumit Kadel hailed the film’s performance as a “breakthrough moment” for Indian animation.
“Mahavatar Narsimha crossing ₹100 crore is a landmark event for Indian cinema. While Hollywood animations often earn billions, India has shown that it can create large-scale animated films too,” Kadel wrote on X.
He also added:
“Our mythological stories are filled with creative potential. This success should inspire more filmmakers to explore this genre. It’s a big win for the industry and theatre owners alike.”
What’s Next?
As Mahavatar Narsimha continues to grow steadily in the rest of the world and maintain a solid position in India, it would not be difficult to envisage the movie surpassing the 150 crores mark in the coming days, especially because the animated feature was a debutant Indian endeavor.
The OTT release is now the most anticipated aspect, which may open the doors to even greater audience. (Read our complete update where to see Mahavatar Narsimha online soon.)
