Raazi has done excellent business in week one grossing 55.75-56 crore nett which is fifth highest first week collection of 2018 and more than 10 crore nett higher than the other runaway HIT of 2018 Sonu Ke Tito Ki Sweety. Raazi is also a slightly less costly affair than that film and could surpass the lifetime numbers of that film.

The biggest plus for Raazi was the start it took as normally a film like this will start lower and the growth will come over the weekend but its a big difference when the growth comes from 7 plus rather than a lower number. The weekdays have held superbly as they added almost 70% to the weekend total as even day seven remained above 5 crore nett. The norm is that weekdas add around 50%.

Raazi is  a SUPER HIT which will be confirmed by the collections on day eight and it will go on to be the second highest female driven film in terms of its total collections behind Tanu Weds Manu Returns.  

The other plus for the film is the Overseas business which is around $2.9m and this has come despite a Pakistan ban which would have give the signal in other markets which have a huge expat Pakistani audience that it is anti pak. But despite this the UK market has gone to £225k plus and Gulf to around $750k which are strong numbers for markets which have a big expat Pakistani audience. The figures are the fourth highest in week one for Overseas this year after Padmaavat, Baaghi 2 and Pad Man.

The worldwide gross is around 91 crore in week one, The details are below
