Released on 24 December, Kabir Khan's '83', starring Ranveer Singh saw a slight drop in the second week's collections at the box office. However, it had managed a decent collection at the end of its first week but couldn't create a storm. The film got the advantage of the Christmas holiday and Shahid Kapoor's Jersey getting postponed, which added considerably to BO. As per trade analyst, Taran Adarsh the total five-day collection stands over Rs 60.99 crore.
He tweeted, "#83TheFilm continues its downward trend... With #Jersey getting postponed, it has another week of open run, but the trending is weak, there's minimal hope to cover lost ground... Fri 12.64 cr, Sat 16.95 cr, Sun 17.41 cr, Mon 7.29 cr, Tue 6.70 cr. Total: ₹ 60.99 cr. #India biz (sic)."
