The Christmas holiday helped the business, but Pushpa 2's mass belts and Mufasa's metropolitan areas also presented competition. Comprehensive ReportWith very early trends showing first day business in the area of Rs 11.00 crore to Rs 12.00 crore, Baby John, the Varun Dhawan-led action movie directed by Kalees, has had a respectable start at the Indian box office. Although Baby John should have made between Rs 13.00 crore and Rs 15.00 crore on its first day, the three-way battle with Pushpa 2 and Mufasa hurt the movie's box office performance.
In the post-pandemic world, non-franchise films featuring younger heroes are struggling at the box office. Vicky Kaushal (Sam Bahadur, Zara Hatke Zara Bachke), Kartik Aaryan (Shehzada, Satyaprem Ki Katha & Chandu Champion), and Ranveer Singh (Rocky Rani Ki Prem Kahani, 83, and Cirkus) have all had difficulty breaking the double-digit mark on the first day. With the exception of the Kabir Khan-directed 83, Baby John's beginning is the greatest of the films listed above, although Varun Dhawan has also been in the same situation as Jug Jugg Jeeyo and Bhediya.The Christmas holiday helped the business, but Pushpa 2's mass belts and Mufasa's metropolitan areas also presented competition. Depending on the walk-in audience throughout the evening and night shows, Baby John's ultimate sales may be greater or lower, although very early indicators point to an opening in the range indicated above.
