Arjun Patiala Box Office Collection Day 1: Diljit Dosanjh and Kriti Sanon Starrer Fails to Get Cash Registers Ringing
Directed by Rohit Jugraj, Arjun Patiala is co-produced by Bhushan Kumar and Dinesh Vijan. It also features Ronit Roy, Pankaj Tripathi, Seema Pahwa, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub and Amit Mehra in supporting roles.
This Friday, two new Bollywood films arrived in cinema halls - Arjun Patiala and Judgementall Hai Kya. The former, which stars Diljit Dosanjh and Kriti Sanon in the lead along with Varun Sharma, failed to impress the critics and then took a poor opening at the Indian box office. The movie witnessed around 5 to 10 % occupancy during the morning shows and ended up raking in merely Rs 1.25 crore on the first day as per Boxofficeindia.com. Well, the figures aren't surprising as the trailer of the film had hardly made any impact and the trade pundits had also predicted that Arjun Patiala would struggle at the ticket windows.

Talking about the film's performance, trade portal Boxofficeindia.com has further reported, "Arjun Patiala is a spoof film and these films never really do well in India and Arjun Patiala had a very poor turnout with collections of 1.25 crore nett. The Diljit Dosanjh factor has not helped in North as spoof films have totally no market there whereas in Mumbai or Bangalore they may have some chance. The film will find it a huge struggle from here on." Box Office Report: Judgementall Hai Kya Off to a Decent Start, Arjun Patiala Witnesses Low Occupancy
While Diljit and Kriti starrer may not be in theatres after week 1, Judgementall Hai Kya, on the other hand, has bright chances of doing good business at the domestic box office. Since Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao are terrific actors, the two will definitely pull the crowd courtesy their dumdaar performances.
