Well, folks, Bollywood finally has something to smile about. *Bad Newz* swooped in with a bang, making quite the splash at the box office and growing steadily over the weekend. The film is currently basking in the glow of Rs. 30.62 crores. Not too shabby, eh? For a mid-budget flick, these numbers are like finding a 100-rupee note in your old jeans pocket. Positive reviews and word of mouth are doing wonders, and it looks like *Bad Newz* will keep raking in the moolah for the days to come.
To break it down, the collections saw a nice uptick: Rs. 8.62 crores on Friday, Rs. 10.55 crores on Saturday, and Rs. 11.45 crores on Sunday. Two double-digit days in the opening weekend? That’s like getting two gulab jamuns instead of one. Starring Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri, and Ammy Virk, the film now has all eyes on it to see what Monday onwards will bring. At the very least, you can bet on Rs. 4 crores, but if it hits close to Rs. 5 crores, then we’re talking about a weekday collection of around Rs. 18 crores more. Now, that would be the cherry on top!
For Vicky Kaushal, this film is another feather in his cap. It’s his third biggest weekend opener. *Uri: The Surgical Strike* bagged Rs. 35.73 crores in its opening weekend, and *Raazi* pulled in Rs. 32.94 crores. *Bad Newz* isn’t far behind. However, *Uri* will keep its first-week crown with an insane Rs. 70.94 crores. Talk about setting the bar high!
