"#Entertainment Fri 11.16 cr (revised figure), Sat 11.53 cr. Total: (Rs.) 22.69 cr nett. India biz," trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted.

Trade analyst Komal Nahta had called it "entertaining but the implausibility of the drama is a minus point".

"Entertainment" also stars Tamannaah Bhatia, Sonu Sood and Johnny Lever.
