NH10 grossed around 3.25 crore nett on day one as evening shows were a bit better in the major cities. The collections are okay as a bigger film like SHAMITABH did a similar number a few weeks back but still NH10 has a long way to go for recovery and Saturday will have to jump big.

The film did best in Delhi/UP and East Punjab with East Punjab getting around 40 lakhs nett thanks to a very good 12 lakhs nett in Gurgaon which probably did well as film is set in that area. Delhi/UP was 70 lakhs nett plus.

Mumbai circuit was around 1 crore nett with a non performance in Gujarat and collections mainly coming from Mumbai City and Pune.

The film has a low budget of just 12 crore but a 9 crore spend on P & A and it is this which may prove costly for the film. A huge chunk of this 9 crore goes to create that awareness for a better initial but the film would not have opened much lower even if the spend was just half of that 9 crore.

The film will need a huge jump on Saturday and a strong hold on Monday to have any chance of a decent run at the box office.
