The festive Dussehra box office clash between Yami Gautam Dhar’s supernatural comedy Nayyi Navelli and Rajkummar Rao’s courtroom biographical drama Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story has officially wrapped up its second week. Both films arrived in theaters on October 16, 2026, targeting vastly different audiences.
As they navigated their second Thursday (October 29, 2026), the harsh reality of the weekday box office caught up to both releases. With daily numbers crashing down to the mere lakhs, the films are currently running on fumes as newer releases gear up to take over the screens this weekend.
Here is the complete box office breakdown and a final 2-week comparison for Nayyi Navelli and Prahaar!
‘Nayyi Navelli’ Box Office Collection: Day 14
Directed by Balaji Mohan, Nayyi Navelli led the race during the initial festive days thanks to its lighthearted family appeal and supernatural horror-comedy elements. However, by the end of its second week, the momentum has completely dried up.
According to live estimates by Sacnilk, the Yami Gautam starrer collected a minimal ₹0.25 crore (₹25 Lakh) on Day 14 (second Thursday) across 1,280 shows.
Despite the rock-bottom weekday numbers, the film remains the clear winner of the clash. With this latest addition, the Total India Net Collection for Nayyi Navelli stands at approximately ₹25.55 crore. Globally, the movie has maintained its lead with a Total India Gross of ₹30.62 crore and an estimated Worldwide Gross crossing ₹33.50 crore.
‘Prahaar’ Box Office Collection: Day 14
Rajkummar Rao’s Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story, directed by Avinash Arun, struggled with a niche subject matter right from the start. The intense biographical drama regarding India’s defining criminal trials failed to pull in the mass family audience that flocked to its competitor.
On its second Thursday (Day 14), Prahaar barely edged past Nayyi Navelli in daily earnings, minting an estimated ₹0.26 crore (₹26 Lakh) across 1,156 shows. The film recorded a dismal overall occupancy of just 7.44%, heavily relying on the Mumbai circuit for footfalls.
Wrapping up its second week (₹17.15 crore in Week 1 + ₹4.40 crore in Week 2), the Total India Net Collection for Prahaar now sits at ₹21.55 crore. Its Total India Gross stands at around ₹25.50 crore, with a Worldwide Gross hovering just under the ₹28 crore mark.
The Final Verdict of the Clash
After exactly two weeks in theaters, the theatrical battle is decisively in favor of Nayyi Navelli.
Yami Gautam’s horror-comedy outperformed Rajkummar Rao’s legal drama by a margin of roughly ₹4 crore in domestic net collections and managed to breach the ₹30 crore gross milestone in India. Both films will now experience a massive reduction in screen counts as fresh releases hit cinemas tomorrow, and the countdown for their OTT premieres will officially begin.
