Here is the day-wise breakdown:

Day 1: 92 lakh

Day 2: Rs 1.22 crore

Day 3: Rs 1.02 crore

Day 4: Rs 51 lakh

Day 5: Rs 37 lakh

Day 6: Rs 27 lakh

The film’s total collection stands at Rs 4.28 crore. Kingston received negative reviews, with critics panning the execution. The underwhelming word-of-mouth worked against it and made it virtually impossible for it to survive competition from Dragon. Pradeep Ranganathan’s film remains a force to reckon with even 20 days after its release.
