The movie failed to take advantage of a holiday and remained flat on Sunday as well. As per early estimates, Begum Jaan 3rd day collection will be around 3.8 crores. Let’s have a detailed look at Begum Jaan first weekend box office report.
Begum Jaan Third Day Collection: Occupancy Report
Running on around 1100 screens, the movie reported around 25% occupancy in the morning shows on Saturday. It failed to witness huge growth in the later part of the day, thus ended the third day on a low. The overall occupancy on the third day was around 35%.
Begun Jaan has been severely hit by its clash with a Hollywood biggie Furious 8 and Gippy Grewal’s Punjabi movie Manje Bistre. Released on only 200 screens in Punjab, Haryana and Delhi City, Manje Bistre literally thrashed out Begum Jaan in NCR region.
Manje Bistre is having a dream run as it has earned 7 crores in the first weekend. Furious 8 also had a superb opening weekend with the collection of 48 crores.
