The film also features Jyotika and Sharad Kelkar. #Srikanth puts up a decent total on Day 1… Absence of major films in the marketplace has given the film that extra push… However, the biz needs to multiply on Sat - Sun for a respectable weekend total… Fri ₹ 2.41 cr. #India biz. #BoxofficePost the disastrous results of… pic.twitter.com/SHE84Okp3H
On Saturday, Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh posted a note on X (formerly known as Twitter) to share the opening day box office figures of Srikanth. He wrote, “Srikanth puts up a decent total on Day 1…Absence of major films in the marketplace has given the film that extra push… However, the biz needs to multiply on Sat-Sun for a respectable weekend total… Fri ₹ 2.41 crore. #India biz. #Boxoffice.”
“Post the disastrous results of #BMCM [Bade Miyan Chote Miyan] and #Maidaan exactly a month ago [#Eid; 11 April], #Srikanth is the first *#Hindi film* to breach ₹ 2 cr mark on *Day 1*, which may not be a huge number, but given the fact that it's a mid-sized film, plus keeping in mind the cold response meted out to releases in April, it's a fair result, frankly. What's commendable is the fact that the makers didn't resort to #Buy1Get1 [#BOGO] free ticket offer on *Day 1* itself to attract viewers, unlike some April releases,” Taran Adarsh added.
