Given that Selfiee is getting a wide release with roughly 3000 screens, it was expected to do well in advance booking. However, the pre-sales trends for the film do not paint a very rosy picture. The advance booking was open a day before the release. Still, it could only manage to sell only 30,000 tickets in India.  As per the report of Sacnilk, the film has collected barely Rs 73.76 lakhs from the first day of advance booking.
