Baaghi 3 Box Office Collections: Tiger Shroff beats Varun Dhawan; Baaghi 3 becomes the 2nd highest opening weekend grosser of 2020

The Tiger Shroff starrer Baaghi 3 has been making headlines since it commenced shooting thanks to the high octane action sequences. Now, last Friday the film hit 4400 screens across India, and opened on a good note. However, the business of the film fell short of expectations due to the ongoing Coronavirus scare that has been keeping audiences away.

Baaghi 3 Box Office Collections: Tiger Shroff beats Varun Dhawan; Baaghi 3 becomes the 2nd highest opening weekend grosser of 2020

In this box office analysis, we take a look at the opening weekend collections of Baaghi 3 while comparing the same to previous releases of 2020. Interestingly, Tiger Shroff has managed to beat Varun Dhawan with Baaghi 3 that collected Rs. 53.83 cr surpassing the collections of Street Dancer 3D that had collected Rs. 39 cr, to become the second highest opening weekend grosser of 2020. While the Ajay Devgn starrer Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior that had collected Rs. 61.75 cr still leads the list of highest opening weekend grossers of 2020, Baaghi 3 has out beaten other releases like Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan that collected Rs. 32.66 cr, Love Aaj Kal that collected Rs. 26 cr, Malang that collected Rs. 25.36 cr, Chhapaak that collected Rs. 19.02 cr, Bhoot: Part One – The Haunted Ship that collected Rs. 16.36 cr, Panga that collected Rs. 14.91 cr, and Thappad that had collected Rs. 13.98 cr.

Now, all that remains to be seen is, whether Baaghi 3 that enjoys an unopposed run in theatres goes on to become one of the highest opening week grossers of 2020. However, while trade expectations state that this scenario is highly plausible, the question remains whether the Coronavirus scare that is gripping the nation will eventually affect the overall business of Baaghi 3.

Ahmed Khan explains his Thappad remark to Anubhav Sinha

Baaghi 3 director Ahmed Khan didn’t know what he was getting into when he told a section of the media that he didn’t understand the concept behind the one-slap divorce in Anubhav Sinha’s Thappad. The casual remark was reported everywhere. Much to the embarrassment of Ahmed who had to call Anubhav Sinha and explain he meant no disrespect to his film.

Ahmed Khan explains his Thappad remark to Anubhav Sinha

“I haven’t seen Thappad. I’ve been busy making my own film. So when I was asked about Thappad I should have just said I can’t comment. Instead I wondered aloud how a marriage can break up for one slap. It is something I can’t understand. Because I can’t dream of slapping my wife, or anyone for that matter. It’s like if I asked you about Sumo wrestling, would you be able to reply? No? You won’t even try to reply. That’s what I should’ve done when asked about Thappad,” says Ahmed with much embarrassment.

He admits he spoke to Anubhav. “Anubhav and I go back a long way. We’ve been friends from the time he made those commercial entertainers like Cash and Tum Bin. I loved those films. Now he’s making films that are life-changing. I’ve the highest admiration for him. I rang him up and told him it was a misunderstanding. He laughed and laughed.”

Much to Ahmed’s chagrin even the Thappad leading lady Taapsee Pannu was asked to react to Ahmed’s remark. “This is nothing but an attempt to make news out of nothing. Baat ka batangar banana,” rues Ahmed.

Ahmed has a request for media persons at press meets. “Please don’t embarrass us by asking about things that have nothing to with our film.”

“In my next I’m taking a break from game-changing ventures” – Ayushmann Khurrana

In his next release, that is Shoojit Sircar’s oddly entitled Gulabo Sitabo, Ayushmann Khurrana plays tenant to a disgruntled old landlord played by Amitabh Bachchan. Says Ayushmann excitedly, “After a series of socially relevant films Gulabo Sitabo is my first out-and-out entertainer about these two squabbling souls from different generations. Amitji is my landlord. I am his tenant. And we just don’t see eye to eye.”

“In my next I’m taking a break from game-changing ventures” – Ayushmann Khurrana

It is Ayushmann’s first out-and-out entertainer in a long time. “All my recent films have tackled issues. This one is pure fun, and I had so much fun doing it. I was sharing screen space for the first time with Amitji. That in itself was enough incentive to be part of Gulabo Sitabo. On top of that, this is a film directed by my mentor Shoojitda (Shoojit Sircar). Even if he asked me to just stand in one frame for a few seconds I’d do it happily.”

Currently Ayushmann is on a break from shooting and Gulabo Sitabo would be his last release for at least a year. “But it’s not as if I am going to be invisible. There are ads to be shot, events to be attended, public appearances will continue. Besides, I am constantly reading scripts. And I’ve already said yes to one new project.”

Baaghi 3 Box Office Collections Day 3 – Baaghi 3 does quite well on Sunday, goes past the Rs. 50 crores mark

Baaghi 3 came on its own on Sunday as there was good growth evidenced. The film collected Rs. 20.30 crores and this is the first time ever over the weekend that the Rs. 20 crores milestone was crossed. This was the kind of feat that the film was expected to perform from the first day itself but the fact that this has now come on the third day at least is good news indeed.

Baaghi 3 Box Office Collections Day 3 - Baaghi 3 does quite well on Sunday, goes past the Rs. 50 crores mark

What is noticeable is that the jump from Saturday numbers of Rs. 16.03 crores is quite good, which means it can well be expected that Monday hold would be good as well. Tomorrow is the holiday due to the festival of holi and that should help evening and night shows today. If the Tiger Shroff starrer managed to score in double digits today, it would be good indeed.

The Sajid Nadiadwala production currently stands at Rs. 53.83 crores and this is now the second biggest weekend of 2020 after Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior [Rs. 61.93 crores]. This was also the time when the Ajay Devgn starrer took off in a very major way and hence Baaghi 3 can’t be expected to challenge any further records of 2020. That said, the Ahmed Khan directed film is far ahead of Street Dancer 3D that had a weekend of Rs. 41.23 crores. In fact, the collections are just a bit short of the Varun Dhawan film which had collected Rs. 56.77 crores in its entire first week.
