Baby John: Box Office Collection

With the day 3 collection, the Kalees directorial total collection now stands at ₹23.90 crore.

At this rate, Baby John, which was reportedly made with a budget of ₹160 crore, will currently need to earn at least 570% more to recover its basic cost.

“That will be impossible as the action thriller is close to crashing at the box office,” said Koimoi.

The overall occupany of the film in hindi language was 14.64 percent. Chennai recorded the maximum occupancy with 30 percent while Pune recorded 22 percent occupancy. Cities like Mumbai and Bengaluru recorded 20.50 and 18.75 percent occupancy while Lucknow recorded 15.25 percent.
