The Kannada film '45' had a good opening at the box office. In its first four days the film earned around Rs 11.45 crore in India net. The opening day itself was strong with Rs 5.5 crore coming in. The film managed to hold on through the weekend, even though the numbers kept changing day by day. By the end of Sunday it had already crossed the Rs 11 crore mark which gave the makers a reason to smile.

Day 5 shows a clear slowdown

According to the Sacnilk website, on the last day the film saw a drop in collections. According to early estimates '45' earned around Rs 85 lakhs on its fifth day. The total collection now stands at nearly Rs 12.30 crore. The film has managed to cross Rs 12 crore in just five days and this is a solid number.

Occupancy numbers on Monday

The overall Kannada occupancy on Monday was around 16.85 percent. Morning shows were quite slow, with just 9.01 percent occupancy. Afternoon shows did a bit better at 22.43 percent. Evening shows were around 18.16 percent. The night shows stood at 17.80 percent.

Cast, crew, and what the review says '45' is directed by Arjun Janya . Shivarajkumar, Upendra, Raj B. Shetty, Rajendran, and Pooja Ramachandra plays the lead roles in the movie.

According to the ETimes review, “While 45 is rich in ideas and messaging, from traffic discipline to existential philosophy, grief, attachment, and spirituality, the execution doesn’t always allow these concepts to breathe.” The review also said that “The screenplay often feels uneven and rushed, prioritising suspense and surprise over organic character development.” It added that Vinay’s journey turns into “a series of chases and escapes involving endless goons,” which takes away from the deeper meaning.

'45' has had a steady run so far. The coming days will be important to see if the film can hold its ground during the weekdays.
