A new movie called DC came out in theaters on Friday.

It stars Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is usually a movie director but acts in the lead role for the very first time, along with actress Wamiqa Gabbi.

The movie is loosely based on a very old story called Devdas, which was written as a novel in 1917.

On its first day, DC collected about ₹5.70 crore from theaters all over the world.

Most of that money, about ₹4.70 crore, came from India, while ₹1 crore came from other countries.

The movie's music, made by composer Anirudh Ravichander, was very popular before the release and brought people to theaters.

People online have been praising the acting and the songs.

The movie reportedly cost around ₹25 crore to make, though that is not officially confirmed.

To become a big success, DC will need to keep earning well over the weekend, especially on Saturday and Sunday.
