KD – The Devil, starring Dhruva Sarja in the lead role, generated some awareness around its release in the Kannada market, but mostly for negative reasons. Just like his previous film, Martin, this one too was heavily trolled for its promotional assets. Even after the release, the situation is the same. In fact, it’s being trolled more after its theatrical release yesterday (April 30). Nonetheless, it has clocked the biggest Kannada opening at the Indian box office.

How much did KD – The Devil earn at the Indian box office on day 1?
The Kannada action drama had an average occupancy of 46% yesterday, which is actually good for a Thursday release. As per Sacnilk, it raked in an estimated 3.5 crore net at the Indian box office on day 1, which equals 4.13 crore gross.

With 3.5 crore net, KD – The Devil has recorded the biggest Kannada opening of the year at the Indian box office. It surpassed Love Mocktail 3 (1.36 crore) to claim the throne.
