Fighter Box Office Report

Trade analyst and film critic Taran Adarsh took to his social media accounts and shared the opening date collections of Fighter. Along with the post, he even predicted how big the film would churn out during the extended weekend. ”After an ordinary/average start in morning and noon shows, #Fighter picked up pace post 5 pm onwards on Day 1 [working day before the big holiday]… Agree, the biggie should’ve targeted a higher number on its opening day, but the good news is that the audience feedback is excellent and that should translate into big numbers today [Day 2; #RepublicDay,” he wrote.
