Rocky Handsome recorded low figures on day one as it could not compete with Batman v Superman - Dawn Of Justice at multiplexes. The film had the same issue at paid previews as they were mainly at multiplexes and Rocky Handsome had poor paid previews. The film has collected 1.50 crore nett in paid previews and 5.50 crore nett on day one.

The initial it took in mass centres on Friday was fair and even first day collections in UP, Rajasthan and CPCI are okay but with no help in the evening at multiplexes the film could not push that first day collection higher. Basically the audience in most of India preferred the action of Batman v Superman.
