Batti Gul Meter Chalu fell on Monday as it collected 2.75-3 crore nett on Monday. The fall is more than 50% from Friday but it was Muharram on Friday which gave collections a 15-20% boost. So in real value the drop is a little less than 50% but the important factor is that the collections are only around 3 crore nett when the film needed to be 4 crore nett.
The collections of the film are now 24.50 crore nett and will finish the week around 32 crore nett. The film had good non theatrical revenue which had covered 60% of the investment and despite theatrical business being poor it should cover the rest. Its done to satellite and digital that the film will not face losses despite doing poor at the box office and this has happened with many films this year. The first four day collections of Batti Gul Meter Chalu are as follows.
Friday - 6.25 crore apprx
Saturday - 7.25 crore apprx
Sunday - 8 crore apprx
Monday - 3 crore apprx
TOTAL - 24.5 crore apprx
