'Bala' Box Office Report: Ayushmann Khurrana's film scores well in 2nd weekendAuthor : AZIndia News Desk
Ayushmann Khurrana's Bala has been in constant comparison with Dream Girl, at least in terms of its Box Office numbers. In comparison to Dream Girl, Ayushmann's Bala is working well in multiplexes of metro cities like Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. However the movie is not minting as many numbers as Dream Girl did in multiplexes placed in Lucknow and Indore.
Bala starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam in lead roles, earned Rs. 8 crore on Sunday in comparison to 6.50 crore from Saturday. The movie minted Rs. 18.25 crore in its second weekend. Upon its release, Bala had managed to earn Rs. 24.6 (closer to Rs. 25) crore over the weekend i.e. within three days of its release.
Bala is sure to cross Rs. 100 crore mark in its third weekend, which is when the real challenge for the film would begin. If Bala can cross Rs. 100 crore mark within its third weekend, the film's collections could be closer to Alia Bhatt-Vicky Kaushal's Raazi or Shraddha Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao starrer Stree.
Here's the day-wise breakup of Bala Box Office collections:
Friday - 9,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 15,00,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 17,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 8,00,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 9,25,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 5,00,00,000 apprx
Week One - 69,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 6,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 8,00,00,000 apprx
Second Weekend - 18,25,00,000 apprx
Total - 87,50,00,000 apprx
Bala collections were affected after release of Marjaavaan. The movie was anyway facing a hurdle through Akshay Kumar's film Housefull 4 release on Diwali. It would now be interesting to see how would Bala fare post-John Abraham-Anil Kapoor's Pagalpanti release.
