The Great Indian Family box office collection Day 3: Vicky Kaushal's film sees its HIGHEST earning on Sunday
Starring Vicky Kaushal and Manushi Chhillar, The Great Indian Family earned Rs 1.4 crore on its opening day.
When Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan shattered all records at the box office worldwide, Vicky Kaushal's The Great Indian Family fell flat. Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, who has won plaudits for his Dhoom franchise, the drama-comedy co-starring Manushi Chhillar hit the big screen on September 22. The film was released with Shilpa Shetty and Kusha Kapila's Shukhee.
The Great Indian Family failed to cross even the Rs 5 crore mark on its Day 2 in theatres. However, it crossed the mark on Day 3 as it collected Rs 2 crore on its first Sunday. The total earnings of the film stand at Rs 5.12 crore, according to early estimates by Sacnilk.com.
The film registered an overall occupancy of 13.33 per cent on Sunday, which is the highest since it was released in theatres. Moreover, the highest occupancy rate was recorded at 15.75 per cent during the evening shows.
