Dwayne Johnson has donned the superhero suit for DC Extended Universe. While The Rock is a popular name and has a sizeable fan base, early predictions state that DCEU’s new film won’t be able to match the box office collections of Marvel’s superhero films. Also, because it’s a pre-Diwali release, the footfall at cinema halls decreases which will impact the collections.
Black Adam was released on Thursday in India during the pre-Diwali phase; hence, film collected 6.50 cr nett on day one and it can be considered a decent performance. Film dropped on day two with usual trend and collected 5 cr nett as festivities came in effect.
Film still have open week without much competition so with growth over weekend, it should collect 28 cr nett as tomorrow will be affected by big India Pakistan match.

Black Adam is a spinoff from Shazam! and while the anti-hero title character and the accompanying Justice Society of America members are no household names, the film’s star certainly is. This has been a passion project for Dwayne Johnson, who plays Black Adam and also produces, and he has been involved with the project for longer than the DCEU has even been in existence. Johnson reteams with Jungle Cruise director Jaume Collet-Serra for the comic book film.
