The Flying Jatt had  a low opening day of around 6.75 crore nett despite it being a partial holiday for Janmashtami. The holiday does not seem to have aided the film much although only the collections of day two will tell. The other two main films playing Rustom and Happy Bhaag Jayegi did see minor jumps in collections on Thursday but they were collecting at lower levels. The film did manage to build up some expectations as the last film of Tiger Shroff had opened very well at around 12 crore nett and also did well in the long run which made The Flying Jatt a hotter film than it would have been before the release of Baaghi. The collections were low all over with even North India not really performing.

Tiger Shroff has a better initial pull in West and Central India as per the results of his first two films while North is comparatively weaker so this could be the reason why the collections are so low in Delhi and Punjab despite it being a Sardar film. The area should be out performing even if the film is not up to the mark like a Singh Is Bling. This is not the case for The Flying Jatt. The film has an extended weekend and its chances rest on the family audience over the weekend, it basically has to improve its collection either today or Saturday and get to that 30 crore nett mark over four days. The second day will be crucial for the film and a drop from these levels will leave it with little chance.
