Jersey Box Office Collection Day 3: Actor Shahid Kapoor’s film Jersey finally hit the theatres on April 22 after too many delays. Despite receiving excellent reviews on its first day of release has failed to make a significant mark at the box office. The film’s opening weekend total stands at Rs 14.5 crore. Even though KGF 2 remains the first choice of moviegoers, emotional drama Jersey felt a massive jump at the box office. Box office, India reports that these kinds of films had a good chance before the pandemic because they were able to score well over the weekend and after. However, after the pandemic, initials have dropped.

Jersey v/s KGF 2 box office collection:

Jersey got affected by KGF: Chapter 2 craze, which is currently doing wonders at the box office. The sports drama had a rough start at the box office. However, the film felt a massive jump over the weekend. While Yash starrer made Rs 25 crore in the Hindi belt to date, Shahid-Mrunal’s film earned Rs 14.5 crores within three days of its release. According to early estimates from trade analyst Ramesh Bala, the film made Rs 5 crore on the third day. It’s apparent that Shahid’s film was influenced by filmmaker Prashanth Neel’s KGF: Chapter 2.

Jersey day-wise box office collection:

Jersey did low business in its first weekend collecting just 14 crore net. There was growth on Saturday though which gave some hope though it was very metro-centric growth that needed a follow-up from centres outside metros on Sunday which did not happen. The issue was the low opening, which meant that favourable word of mouth couldn’t fully spread due to a lack of appropriate footfalls. In addition, audiences have a good option in the form of KGF: Chapter 2 (Hindi).

Day 1: Rs 4 crore
Day 2: Rs 5.5 crore
Day 3: Rs 5 crore

Total: Rs 14.5 crores
