Udta Punjab had a good first day with 10 crore nett which is the fifth best opening day of the year after Fan, Housefull 3, Baaghi and Airlift. In Delhi city and East Punjab it recorded the second highest opening day after Fan. The collections in Delhi city were better than Housefull 3 though the figures for the whole of Delhi / UP circuit were lower. The figures in East Punjab alone were best of the year.
The collections outside of North ranged from good to average barring Gujarat / Saurashtra which was poor. The performance of the Gujarat area was a lag on Mumbai circuit which collected around 2.50 crore nett which is the same figure as Delhi /UP.
Normally it would be easy to say the film will improve on Saturday for this type of film as that is when the target audience at high end multiplexes comes out but problem here is that normally films like this don't put up double digit numbers on day one. There is potential for growth in many areas but that will depend on how the word of mouth is in these areas.
