Cobra Day 3 Box Office Collection Worldwide: The Trim Doesn’t Help The Film

Cobra
received
feedback
about
its
lengthy
runtime,
especially
in
the
second
half,
on
the
first
day
of
its
release
itself.
On
the
second
day,
the
team
decided
to
trim
away
twenty
minutes
of
the
film
and
released
the
trimmed
version
on
the
second
day
evening.
It
was
expected
that
the
trim
might
push
up
the
numbers
a
bit,
but
there
hasn’t
been
a
boost.

The
total
collection
of

Cobra
across
languages:

Day
1
–

17.45
Crore


Day
2
–
Rs.
5.15
Crore


Day
3
–
Rs.
3.70
Crore
as
per
early
estimates.

The
total
collection
on
the
first
three
days
amounts
to
approximately
Rs.
26.30
Crore.

The
film
features
Vikram
as
Madhi,
a
math
teacher
who
takes
up
assassination
missions
from
the
young
and
rich
Rishi,
for
the
money
that
comes
with
it.
Madhi
uses
the
money
to
fund
charitable
homes
and
orphanages.
His
life
goes
on
smoothly
until
Bhavana,
a
criminology
professor
gets
on
his
trail,
determined
to
get
closer
to
him.

Azlaan,
an
Interpol
detective,
learns
of
the
connection
between
multiple
assassins
of
Madhi,
through
a
math
undergrad,
who
also
happens
to
be
a
student
of
Bhavana.
Meanwhile,
Rishi
turns
against
Madhi,
as
investigators
get
closer
to
Madhi,
and
Rishi
is
keen
on
saving
his
own
skin.
Madhi
somehow
needs
to
handle
the
triple
threat
event.

While
the
first
half
spent
time
setting
up
the
pieces
and
had
our
attention
and
focus,
the
second
half
took
elaborate
detours
to
explain
the
emotional
conflicts
between
the
characters.
Although
the
scenes
took
the
narrative
forward,
they
failed
to
pull
us
into
the
drama.
