The film managed to collect Rs 10.26 crore on its first day, reported Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh.

Should've collected higher, since youth-centric films, generally, open big... Business affected in Mumbai circuit due to Tanhaji wave... Big growth on Day 2 and 3 essential for a strong total...
