Angrezi Medium had a poor start of around 8-10% with around 45 crucial cinemas not playing the film in Delhi city due to cinemas remaining shut in the Union Territory till the end of the month due to Corona Virus. Jammu and Kerala are also shut but the contribution from there is very limited.

Angrezi Medium is a franchise film of Hindi Medium which opened at around 2.50 crore nett and the way this has opened there does not look much upside to that number unless evenings have a strong pick up. Hindi Medium hardly deserved a franchise as though it may have been a HIT it was hardly seen by many people. The film was a HIT mainly due to it doing good business against its costs but it was not a grosser.

The best collections for the film are in Noida and Gurgaon which shows that Delhi is going to be a big loss. The last film was also driven by Delhi NCR but even if all things were normal it would still be hard for this film to do a repeat of Hindi Medium in NCR. The film needs a big turnaround on Saturday and if it comes then it will Monday that will tell if the turnaround was good enough. There will also be more fear of more states shutting cinemas like Delhi in the near future.

The Punjabi film Chal Mera Putt 2 had a fair opening with occupancy far better than Angrezi Medium. Chal Mera Putt had done extraordinary business Overseas though could not fare well in India and it remains to be seen how Chal Mera Putt 2 goes.
