The most awaited chapter in the entire Conjuring Universe failed to generate any great reviews. The film that was touted as the scariest of all was disappointingly not even close to the term 'scare'. Yes, it had its own share of certain scary moments but not as many as Conjuring or even Conjuring 2.  Yet, the film is off to a flying start at the Indian box-office. The good word of mouth around the film's franchise is responsible for The Nun movie to take such a commendable opening on its day one. The film managed to mint Rs 8 crore on its first Friday and if trade predictions are to believe, it's only going to enjoy a golden run at the ticket window.  The Nun Movie Review: The Most-Awaited Chapter in the Conjuring Universe Sadly Disappoints.

Popular trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to his Twitter account to share first day figures of The Nun at the Indian box-office. He wrote   achieves the best opening day numbers among #Conjuring movies in India... Takes an ELECTRIFYING START... Eclipses *all* releases - new as well as holdover titles... Fri ₹ 8 cr Nett BOC [1603 screens]. India biz. All versions.

Despite Rajkummar Rao's Stree going so strong at the box office, The Nun was able to shine bright and outperform the rest. It was able to stand strong against Bollywood movies like Paltan, Gali Guleiyan, and Laila Majnu. Going by these new numbers and audiences' reaction, seems like The Nun is here to stay for long.
