Box Office: Sachin biopic survives the weekday test, Hindi Medium having strong hold!

Close to 3500 screens have been allocated between Sachin - A Billion Dreams, Hindi Medium and Half Girlfriend, which indicates a capacity to earn around 30 crore per day between each film. Even if one considers reduced rates, the expected capacity collections should be at least 25 crore. However, if Tuesday collections are any indication, the percentage occupancy is not more than 30%, , which makes the combined collection of the three films being less than 7.50 crore.
 
Sachin - A Billion Dreams is at the top spot with 3.75 crores* coming on Tuesday, Hindi Medium is following next with 2 crores* (though it is running at just 30% of the screen count than Sachin biopic) while Half Girlfriend has gone below the 1 crore mark to bring in 70 lakhs*. This brings the overall sum to roughly 6.50 crore.
 
But the brighter side of the box office, these three films have at least done better than many other movies that have released between Badrinath Ki Dulhania and Baahubali 2 [Hindi]. While each of these is a 50 crore plus affair in the making (Sachin - A Billion Dreams has collected 36 crores* so far, Hindi Medium is standing at 41.55 crores* and Half Girlfriend has accumulated 57 crores*), Bollywood still awaits a blockbuster that touches the 100 crore mark.

 
*Estimates. Final numbers awaited
