Manoj Bajpaye starrer action-thriller film Bhaiyya Ji has finally hit theatres, competing with Srikanth, which is already ruling at the box office. Known for his versatile roles and excellent performances, fans were looking forward to Bajpayee’s upcoming venture, and it seems like the magic has worked again! After marking a slow opening on Friday, Bhaiyya Ji picked up pace over the weekend and has made a business of over Rs 5 crore in three days of its release. Basking in the ‘dhamakedaar weekend’, the actor took to Instagram and shared the film’s collections.
According to the post, Bhaiyya Ji earned Rs 1.44 crore on its opening day. Later, the numbers increased to Rs 2.01 crore on Day 2, Saturday, and Rs 2.40 crore on Day 3, Sunday. This brings the film’s total collection to Rs 5.85 crore in India. However, it is yet to be seen how the film passes the crucial Monday test.
According to Sacnilk data, the film has an overall occupancy of 9.45 per cent on Friday, 12.52 per cent on Saturday, and 12.77 per cent on Sunday, May 26.
Sharing a poster along with it, Manoj Bajpayee wrote, “Weekend ke har vaar par, Bhaiyya Ji ka chala narsanhaar,” further urging fans to catch the film in cinemas.
However, in comparison to Rajkummar Rao’s Srikanth, Bhaiyya Ji holds sluggish numbers, as the former collected around Rs 12 crore in the first weekend. Even after 17 days of its release, the film continues to draw audiences to theatres. So far, Srikanth has earned an estimated Rs 37 crore in India.
