But the Milap Zaveri-directed film has registered a "decent" total on Day 4 - Rs 7.25 crore - and the film's total collection currently stands at Rs 40.75 crore, the report added.

Satyameva Jayate also booked a spot on the list of biggest opening day collections of 2018. AkshayKumar's Gold also features on the list. Satyameva Jayate is on the fifth while Gold got the third biggest opening.
Film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in his review for NDTV, gave Satyameva Jayate 1 star out of 5. "But this is John Abraham's comfort zone. Going on the rampage is all in a day's work, be it springing to the aid of a young man wrongly confined in a police station and tortured or a girl assaulted by a policemen. Veer might be a ruthless killer for a cause but he is a good guy with a good enough reason for his marauding ways," he wrote.
John Abraham returns to the masala action genre with Satyameva Jayate, which also stars Manoj Bajpayee and Aisha Sharma. The film is a vigilante drama, which has been directed by Milap Zaveri.
