Hero is set for a decent first day collection as it should reach the 5.75-6 crore nett mark. The film has done well in Mumbai circuit and CPCI Rajasthan but the collections in Delhi city and East Punjab are not up to the mark and this area will be crucial on Saturday if the film is to have a run at the box office
The opening day numbers will be on par with a film like Drishyam and better than bigger films like Piku, Bombay Velvet, Hamari Adhuri Kahani and Detective Byomkesh Bakshi despite having a new cast. The numbers have mainly come due to one song and the Salman Khan factor.
The second day will decide the fate of the film as that North India area has to pick up for the film to have a run at the ticket counters.
