As per the early trends flowing in, the movie movie could just about touch the double digits on its day 3 at the box office. It can collect in the range of 8-10 crores. This is huge for a film which without any strong promotions released amidst the finale period of IPL. The number would’ve been higher but the final of IPL affected its proceedings in the evening shows.
If we go by the early trends, the movie could have its 1st weekend in the range of 20-22 crores. Also, this has every chance of trending superbly since Monday given the healthy word of mouth. Also, IPL has been concluded now and this will act as an added advantage for the film.
