But surprisingly, the film has stayed strong even though it saw a slight drop on weekdays.
More importantly, it has held up better than many people thought it would.
Now the third weekend has started, and the early signs are positive.
Even with new movies competing at the box office, Maa Inti Bangaaram is still drawing family audiences.
The film is currently around the 90 crore mark worldwide, getting close to the big 100 crore target.
Everything now depends on how well it does over the next few days.
A good weekend could help it reach the 100 crore mark.
For Samantha, this is more than just numbers.
A 100 crore finish would help her become one of the top box office stars in South Indian cinema.
It will be interesting to see if Maa Inti Bangaaram can build enough momentum this weekend and finish with a memorable 100 crore total.
