Laal Singh Chaddha Box Office Report
Aamir Khan starrer added another Rs 1.57 crore to its collection in week three and closed off its box office run with Rs 30 lakh (last 3 days of week 4). According to Box Office India, "Laal Singh Chaddha will close its lifetime business under 60 crore nett as its run comes to and end with the release of Brahmastra. The film has just capitulated post the first week and theatrically it is a huge disaster in India while overseas has also performed badly on a huge release which was biggest ever at time of release though now Brahmastra will be bigger."

Despite this dud performance theatrically there have been stories going around how distributors have lost heavily and want refunds etc but this is mainly spread due to negativity for the film on social media and the digital world. The producers themselves released the film worldwide so there can be no one asking for money back. The loss of the film will basically be carried by Aamir Khan in the same way loss of Zero was carried by Shah Rukh Khan. Considering the disaster box office fate the film has not come out that badly in terms of financial recovery as there is good revenue from other revenue sources which was not the case with films like Dhaakad and 83 which remain biggest financial losers post the pandemic," BOI added.
