According to Box Office India, "the collections are gain holding up better in the likes of UP and Bihar. The five-day collections of the film are now around 48.50 crore nett and the first week is looking to be 55-56 crore nett. The collections remain better in the Hindi belts for the film but that is no where near good enough. The surprise is Gujarat / Saurashtra as that normally behaves like a Rajasthan but for this film its has remained on the lower side. It is not as bad as Maharashtra but it should have done better going by the business in Rajasthan. Also, Gujarat is the only state where business is better now compared to pre-pandemic."
