First Day Box Office Collection of 'Lootera'

Both the movies, which released on July 5 \'Lootera\' and \'Policegiri\' performed high-decibel promotions by employing various strategies. However, both of them witnessed a slow start at the box office in their morning shows on Friday. \'Lootera\' and \'Policegiri\' belong to entirely diverse genre.

\'Lootera\', a high-budget visual delight featuring Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha opened with occupancy of just 10% to 15% in single screens and small towns. But, in posh multiplexes in metros, the film saw 30% occupancy and the scenario got better from the second show. There were anticipations regarding the film to grow by night in the big cities due to its positive reviews. \'Lootera\' directed by Vikramaditya Motwane could not take up a big leap as per the expectations in its initial shows, however the evening shows observed 15% to 20% development in the numbers. As the early estimates speak, \'Lootera\' should garner 4.25-4.50 crore nett on Friday,

If the movie wishes to avoid the struggle with a grand cost of 30-35 crore, \'Lootera\' has to incur at least 5 crore nett on its first day of release.
