Fighter Box Office Collection Drop To Single Digits After Three days

Fighter’s weekday business, which launched last week, is something of a “paradox,” according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh. The domestic box office numbers for the film Fighter, which stars Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone as air force officials, have dropped sharply. Mr. Adarsh claims that “the dwindling numbers in India are a complete shocker.” However the movie is doing well overseas; following a “excellent weekend” of sales, the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand have all reported high box office results. In his post about the statistics, Taran Adarsh posed the question, “How does one explain this paradox?”
After six days in theaters, Fighter has earned ₹ 134 crore at the box office, according to Sacnilk.

This week, the earnings dropped to single digits with just ₹8 crore on Monday and ₹7.5 crore yesterday in comparison to ₹29 crore on Sunday

“Fighter shocks India, rocks overseas. The underperformance of Fighter has sent shock waves within the industry. Imagine, the film ticks all the boxes – right from star names and director’s credentials to tremendous critical acclaim and positive audience feedback. Yet, the dwindling numbers in India are a complete shocker. To face a setback at the very start of the year is indeed worrisome,” posted Taran Adarsh.

“Having said that, while the numbers are witnessing a downward trend in India, the biz in key international markets continue to be strong, even on weekdays. Markets like USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are still holding fort, even after an excellent weekend. How does one explain this paradox?” he added.

He’s isn’t the only expert who is astonished by very low numbers of this year’s first big film. “It’s disappointing to see Fighter drop on Monday. This is a film that deserved to be a success. Surprised that audiences have not stepped in, even though Friday was particularly good,” wrote trade analyst Joginder Tuteja.

Fighter, directed by Siddharth Anand, also stars Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover and Akshay Oberoi in pivotal roles.
