On the next day, the Hindi spy thriller directed by Ranjit M Tewari witnessed a slight drop in footfalls and managed to collect 2.65 crores at the domestic box office. Then on Saturday, it showed 13% growth in business than Friday and added the amount of 3 crores to its account.

After 4 days, the total extended opening weekend collection of the film has become 12.80 crores, which is decent enough considering the current scenario.
