The unrest in the country due to the various protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act and the National Register of Citizens coupled with Section 144 imposed in various state, has reportedly lead to an estimated 15-20% loss of business. Had the conditions in the state been more favourable, the early estimates report claims that the film could have looked at an opening of over 30 crore nett.

Despite the numbers on the first day, trade experts predict good growth over the weekend and are optimistic about a good run at the box office.

The film has also had a multi-lingual release in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada, but the collections could be limited but could aid in pushing the film to a 25 crore nett collection on the first day.

‘Dabangg 3’ has managed to grab the fourth spot in the list of top advance bookings at the box office. With Rs 11.50 crore from advance booking, Salman’s cop actioner is right behind Hrithik Roshan‘s ‘War’ (Rs 31.36 crore), Akshay Kumar‘s ‘Mission Mangal’ (Rs 15.19 crore) and his own earlier release ‘Bharat’ which collected Rs 23.47 crore.

If the estimated numbers hold true, then ‘Dabangg 3’ will become the second-best non-holiday opener of the year after the Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor starrer ‘Saaho‘ which had collected Rs 25.82 crore with Rs 8.27 crore coming from advance bookings.

Meanwhile, ‘Dabangg 3’ has received a lot of love from all the quarters for its songs, trailer and promo clips. Sonakshi Sinha and Arbaaz Khan will be reprising their roles as Rajjo and Makkhanchand Pandey while south star Kiccha Sudeep will be seen as the antagonist in the film. Debutant, Saiee Manjrekar will be essaying the role of Khushi, Salman’s love interest in the prequel.

Talking about joining the cast of Dabangg 3, Sudeep told, “The feeling of having worked with Salman and Prabhu sir is greater than anything for me. Salman is one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry today. These are not things that I expected to happen. So, when the film happened to me, I accepted it wholeheartedly and enjoyed it thoroughly. I lived every moment. I didn’t come here with any kind of expectation, but I have carried back home a lot of memories and good moments. It is great that I can now say these are the people I have worked with, and I have been part of such a big franchise. It has been a great opportunity for me.”

Trade analyst Girish Johar predicted the opening day collection of Dabangg 3. He told us, “It is an established franchise, and people always look forward to it. The makers have already started working on Dabangg 4 which shows their confidence. I peg the film at around Rs 27-30 crore and depending upon how the audience find the film, numbers will change by the evening shows. If it is accepted well, it will have a healthy weekend.”
