Budget and recovery
Hey Balwanth was made at an estimated budget of 9 crore. Against this cost, the film has earned 2.05 crore so far, thus recovering 22.77% of the budget in just two days. If the film maintains a good hold on weekdays, it is likely to recover the entire budget and become a clean success at the Indian box office. Let’s see if it manages to do that.
To secure a clean hit verdict, Hey Balwanth must make 100% returns, which will be achieved at a net collection of 18 crore. The target of the hit verdict will be within reach if the film sees good traction from the audience for the first two weeks.
