Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway Are Back and Indian Audiences Are Absolutely Here for It — Devil Wears Prada 2 Crosses Rs 20 Crore
Runway magazine is back in business, and Indian moviegoers are happily paying the price of admission. The Devil Wears Prada 2 has quietly but confidently crossed the Rs 20 crore mark at the Indian box office in just six days, cementing its place as yet another Hollywood win in what has genuinely been a stellar year for Western imports in India.
After a strong opening weekend haul of roughly Rs 16 crore across previews and three days, the film settled into a steady weekday rhythm, pulling in approximately Rs 1.40-1.50 crore daily — respectable numbers that suggest genuine word-of-mouth love rather than just opening-weekend curiosity.
With a stacked ensemble including Emily Blunt, Lucy Liu, Simone Ashley, and Pauline Chalamet alongside the iconic Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway duo, this sequel clearly had enough star power to command multiplex screens across India. A first-week close of Rs 22 crore looks likely, with a second-weekend bump potentially pushing it past Lee Cronin’s The Mummy.
But here’s what we’re wondering — could The Devil Wears Prada 2 actually challenge Michael’s impressive Rs 50 crore run?
