Released in over 3200 screens in 2100 theaters, Jab Harry Met Sejal has only collected 15.25 crores on the first day. It was expected that JHMS will collect somewhere around 20 to 22 crores but that didn’t happen at all. The collection is too low. SRK’s Jab Harry Met Sejal has got 40 to 45 percent occupancy on Day 1 and that has impacted the film in a big way.
This film didn’t receive favourable reviews from critics and that will again slow down the collection in the second and third day. The weekend collection expectation would be around 50 to 55 crores. It is being rumored that Jab Harry Met Sejal lifetime collection will be around 120 to 130 crores as it will face Toilet: Ek Prem Katha in the second week.
Interestingly, Jab Harry Met Sejal fails to beat the collections of his previous release Raees, which has earned 20.42 crores on Day 1. Now it seems like it will also fail to beat Raees lifetime collection record of 139 crores.
Directed by Imtiaz Ali, this film stars SRK as Harry a tour guide and Sejal a lawyer, who lost her ring in Europe. This film is an unusual love story and that’s why it didn’t meet favorable reviews from critics and audience.
Altogether, Jab Harry Met Sejal mouth publicity will play a crucial role in the film collection.
