Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali, can totally relieve and forget all the trouble and tension he had to go through to release his film Padmaavat. The box-office collections of the film are showing only positive results with every passing day. The film was already delayed, which rose curiosity for it. Plus, the controversy and protests only added to the need to see what the film is all about? The film is doing extremely well at the box-office. The latest reports indicate the film has entered the Rs. 100 crore club in 4 days.

The film finally released on 25th January and the Republic day weekend only acted as an advantage. After the extended weekend, the figures now stand at Rs. 114 crore. Since the film did not release in all the states, trade analyst says they have faced a loss of approximately Rs. 37 crore. Had the film got a smooth sail in all states, it could have crossed Rs. 100 crore in 3 days itself! The total collections on Sunday were Rs. 31 crore. Check out Padmaavat's Day 1 collections.
