The film had earned Rs 6.50 cr on the first two days.  It took a rocking start with earnings of Rs 3 crore on its opening day. Collections saw a rise on Saturday to Rs 3.5 cr.

While Bell Bottom recorded collections of Rs 2.75  cr on its opening day,  Chehre earned just Rs 45 lakh on its opening day.

Shang Chi And The Legend Of Ten Rings  had witnessed heavy rush in advance booking prior to its release.

Shang Chi And The Legend Of Ten Rings released in theatres across India on Friday.

Shang Chi has earned record revenues of 127.6 million dollars (Rs 932 crore) in its opening weekend Worldwide, a record for a  film released post the pandemic.
