STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI may have set the box office on fire in its domestic market and is on course to be the highest grosser of 2017 in US/Canada and most other territories but India is totally a different story. The film could not do much over the weekend and the collections fell badly on Monday. The four day business of the film is in the same region as the opening day of THOR: RAGNAROK while in the states it will be be hitting the lifetime of THOR: RAGNAROK in around one week. The daily business of STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI is as follows.
Friday - 2,00,00,000
Saturday - 2,75,00,000
Sunday - 3,00,00,000
Monday - 75,00,000
TOTAL - 8,50,00,000

The new Hindi films fared very badly with MONSOON SHOOTOUT being the best of the lot with collections of around 1 crore nett over the weekend with Monday being down as against Friday when it had to be more for some screen space in the second week..

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI had a poor opening day in India as it grossed just 2 crore nett but it was still higher than any of the new Hindi releases. There were nine of these Hindi films like DHANLAXMI, EK ANDEKHA SACH, GAME OF AYODHYA, HARE KRISHNA, HAUNTED VILLA LONAVALA, JOURNEY OF BHANGOVER, MONSOON SHOOTOUT, MY FRIEND'S DULHANIA and OFFICE #thebrightesthorrorfilm. In fact the opening day collections of STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI were more than these films combined. STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI is better than the last Star Wars film ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY in 2016 hardly registering with an under 1 crore nett opening. But STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS had grossed 3.60 crore nett on day which was an average collection.

The STAR WARS franchise has little value in India. Its not just recent STAR WARS films which have not done well but even the original films like STAR WARS (1977) and THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (1980) were huge flops in India

The best Hindi release was MONSOON SHOOTOUT which should finish in the 25 lakh nett range which leaves it little chance. Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrers hardly open as they lack entertainment for the audiences but this is the worst of the lost barring HARAAMKHOR which was at 20 lakhs nett. BABUMOSHAI BANDOOKBAAZ had an opening day of 1.61 crore nett, FREAKY ALI was 1.91 crore nett, RAMAN RAGHAV 2.0 was 99 lakhs nett and MANJHI - The MOUNTAIN MAN was 1.34 core nett.
