Varun Dhawan, Kiara Advani starrer JugJugg Jeeyo was creating buzz among Bollywood circles before release and it was marketed heavily all over.
The film started slow on Friday with below par 9.28 cr nett followed by decent jumps over weekend with 36.93 cr nett total. It needed strong hold on Monday in order to have longer run at box office as there is not much competition in next couple of weeks. But audience has given the verdict as film dropped big on Monday.
As per early trends, film should collect in range of 4.82 cr nett and that is almost 50% drop form Friday. The film has total of 41.75 cr nett after 4- days and 1st week will be under 54 cr nett at best.
A lifetime total of 75-78 cr nett looks on the card and that’s a terrible result for such a big film considering cast, production house and paid hype.
Fri 9.28 cr
Sat 12.55 cr
Sun 15.10 cr
Mon 4.82 cr
Total: 41.75 cr
