Thappad 1st Day Between 2-3 Crore

Thappad Has Poor Opening Day

Saturday 29 February 2020 11.30 IST Box Office India Trade Network

Thappad had a poor first day as it collected 2.75- 3 crore nett though it was better than the likes of Panga and Saand Ki Aankh. The collections are mainly from Delhi NCR as that area including the NCR centres of East Punjab like Gurgaon and Faridabad are over 80 lakhs nett. These collections are from just 100 theatres.

The film will need good pick up in places like Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore to have any chance of doing well and it this pick up could come on Saturday but whether it can last after that is another story. The film looked devoid of entertainment and music so on those accounts its not too bad of a number but on the other side it had those early four star reviews coming well before release which can help collections at these low levels.

Its going to be Monday when it will known that are these reviews any close to reality or like normal when they try to push certain films no matter how bad they may be. The first day collections of similar films to Thappad are as follows.

Chhapaak - 4,46,00,000

Mardaani 2 - 3,75,00,000

Thappad - 2,85,00,000 apprx

Panga - 1,81,00,000

Saand Ki Annkh - 47,00,000 (pre diwali)

Considering the genre, it's a decent start. Also Taapsee has outdone the likes of Sonam, Kangana. Kudos to her!
