We can clearly see that Single benefited from positive word-of-mouth, which resulted in it earning an estimated 2 crore net at the Indian box office on day 1. Yes, as per Sacnilk, the film opened at 2 crores. Compared to Sree Vishnu’s last release, Swag (1.35 crores), it opened with 48.14% higher collection.
From here, the Sree Vishnu starrer is likely to grow over the weekend, and in normal circumstances, it can score 9-10 crores during the opening weekend. However, amid a rising conflict between India and Pakistan, the film might suffer a significant blow in its occupancy today and tomorrow. So, as of now, it’s unclear where the film is heading.
