Raazi did very well on day one as it collected in the 7.50 crore nett range on day one. The opening day is the fifth highest of the year and not far off bigger films like Pad Man (9.81 crore nett) and Raid (9.45 crore nett). Baaghi 2 and Padmaavat top the opening days of 2018 as far as Hindi films are concerned.
The film has done very well in the metros and collections in other major centers are also pretty good especially considering its a heroine orientated film. The best numbers are in the bigger territories of Mumbai and Delhi /UP.
Raazi is also one of the highest opening days for a film driven by a heroine as not many films like this have been able to reach this mark. Maybe one or two films.

The opening day has also come out much higher than the recent content films like Hichki, October and 102 Not Out as the promo was more Indian than those films and the film was more commercial in terms of content than those films. It is even surpassed Secret Superstar by a distance which had the presence of Aamir Khan and its the similar to what that film got post Diwali which is the biggest day of the year for collections..
The job is almost done for the film as the hardest part for these types is to get an opening number and this sort of first day figures ensures a success and it becomes about where the film can eventually go.
There will be growth on Saturday as the multiplexes will show better collections but it may not be that 40-50% which is expected on day two for the content films as the first day number is strong. If it does come out to be 50% then this film will really be going places.
