BAAGHI recorded the second biggest opening of the year as it grossed 11.50-11.75 crore nett. The mass circuits recorded oustanding collections be it CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan, Bihar, Assam or Orrisa. All the above circuits are records for 2016 barring Rajasthan. The figures were better than FAN in all except Rajasthan.
The bigger circuits like Mumbai, Delhi/UP and East Punjab may not have been excellent but are still good and that is more than enough for the film. The opening is better than Akshay Kumar's AIRLIFT and only below Shah Rukh Khan's FAN but these are among the biggest stars of the country.
The multiplex business has potential to grow on Saturday and all the film has to really do is just hold collections at this level on Saturday and the job will be done. The film can even afford a slight drop.
