Before its release, ‘Aay’ achieved a pre-release business of Rs 3.25 crore, with a break-even target set at Rs 3.50 crore. Remarkably, within just four days, the film not only hit the break-even point but also entered into profit territory, earning a share of Rs 3.90 crore and securing a profit of Rs 40 lakhs. This quick achievement solidifies ‘Aay’ as a hit movie.
The movie's collections have shown significant growth since its release.
