Film released in 1800 cinemas/3100 screens all over country and bad performance of big release of last week has given this film golden opportunity. Film opened to 25-30% occupancy and that increased gradually by the day rising in good word of mouth.
Obviously due to genre and urban feel opening is not as high as other Akshay starrer ‘Kesari’ or ‘Housefull 4’ but still film managed good day one number followed by decent jump on day two.
