The Indian box office witnessed a fierce competition among five films, with 'The Conjuring: Last Rites' dominating with Rs 18 crore on its opening day. Sivakarthikeyan's 'Madhraasi' followed with Rs 13 crore, while 'Baaghi 4' earned Rs 12 crore with a 'Buy One Get One' offer. Other releases, 'Ghaati' and 'The Bengal Files,' lagged behind in initial collections.

Anushka Shetty's action film 'Ghaati' made a promising debut, earning approximately Rs 2 crore in India on its first day, September 5, 2025. The film saw strong Telugu occupancy, particularly in Hyderabad and Chennai. Positive word-of-mouth and solid performances, especially from Shetty, suggest potential for continued box office success if it maintains momentum over the weekend.
