BADLAPUR grossed around 3.75-4 crore nett on Monday. It's a decent hold but there was a noticeable fall in some areas. The drop is just under 50% from Friday. The film is driven by Mumbai circuit and it's a plus that a big contributor to all India business is leading. The four day business is around 27.50 crore nett.
