According to preliminary figures of Sacnilk, the film earned this amount from more than 16,599 shows across the country. Its first day business worldwide was Rs 125.25 crore.

The Kannada version, meanwhile, earned ₹3.5 million. The Hindi version’s earnings were relatively low, despite these figures.
