Batwara 1947 continued to struggle at the Indian box office on Day 6. The Sunny Deol-led period drama collected around Rs. 1.10 crore nett on Wednesday, registering a 37 percent decline from the previous day. Its six-day total now stands at approximately Rs. 28 crore nett.
The Aamir Khan-backed partition drama has failed to connect strongly with audiences, which has significantly affected its theatrical performance. Based on the current trend, the film is expected to finish its first week at around Rs. 29 crore nett.
The movie is now heading towards its final theatrical run, with current estimates suggesting a lifetime collection in the range of Rs. 40-45 crore nett. For a big-budget Sunny Deol starrer, that would be a highly disappointing outcome.
Batwara 1947 was developed following the blockbuster success of Gadar 2, which revived Sunny Deol’s box-office standing after a prolonged period. Produced by Aamir Khan Productions, the film is set against the backdrop of Partition and features mass-oriented elements, though its approach differs from the Gadar franchise.
