TANHAJI: THE UNSUNG WARRIOR collected well with 14.50 crore nett on day which is lower than the earlier estimates as North and East have come in with low collections. The film has still done well on day one but those North and East figures will have to improve as they bring the all India figure down. The film was also going to lead in Maharashtra but Gujarat could have helped it higher. Mumbai is around 50% of the all India number.

The collections in Maharashtra are very good but here the Gujarat/Saurashtra figure means Mumbai circuit could have been better also. It remains to be seen what sort of growth the film can get on Saturday and it should grow well in most multiplexes of the country though Maharashtra and single screens may not.

CHHAPAAK also came in lower than estimated at around 4.25 crore nett. The film was failed to show any growth post 3 pm and which should have pushed the number to 6 crore nett. The collections are only in the big multiplexes and it has hardly collected outside the big multiplexes.

The film will struggle to collect from here especially with the competition of the bigger film but it has proved to be a bit of a nuisance film to TANHAJI: THE UNSUNG WARRIOR in North, West Bengal and Mysore as in these places TANHAJI: THE UNSUNG WARRIOR was going to be weak but with another film they get an option also.
