Baby Box Office Collections: Rocky Steady but 100 crore out of reach

Baby continued its steady run at the box office in its third weekend, but the film is likely to just fall short of the 100 crore mark. While the Akshay Kumar starrer did hold steady on its 3rd Friday, the growth on Saturday and Sunday was limited.

The film has performed well at circuits where the so-called ‘class’ movies do well. Mysore (Mangalore, Bangalore), West Bengal (Kolkata), Mumbai (Mumbai city, Pune, Nagpur), Delhi NCR region and other big cities in the country.

However, mass centres like Rajasthan, Central India, UP, Bihar and a few other centres have under performed.

Overall, Baby is set to finish its run with net box office collections of around 94-95 crore. Ranbir Kapoor’s Roy will get a fairly good release this weekend and so will ‘MSG – The Messenger’. Also, the cricket World Cup starting this weekend will affect the business of all films.

  • It’s quite disappointing that it didn’t cross 100 crores but still the producers would have recovered their costs and it would eventually get a hit/semi-hit verdict.
    I think Akshay’s next two movies would surely benefit from the appreciation that Baby has received.Gabbar should be a good movie since Ramana is considered a classic down South.And Brothers could easily be Akshay’s first 150+ crore movie since it would have a holiday release.

  • Will MSG have an all-India release or would it release only in certain northern states??
    It looks like a big budget movie with hilarious songs.

  • Baby is rocking for sure….. Next week a media-created towel dropper’s film is releasin ….. It is flop for sure… So baby will benefit…. Eager to know that media-created star will show his butt-cracks or drop towel …….!!

    Roy is buzz because becoz of affair rumour promotional hype……!!

    Baby steady march will continue becoz flop roy ……!

  • plz change tge verdict to semi hit and call it a success bcz according to ur baby prediction article baby needed 90-95cr for gaining semi hit status

    • @Arjun Kapoor Fan, please stop telling us what to write. According to economics we published before release, Baby was EXPECTED to recover Rs 25 crore from Satellite. Now trade sources say, it will only fetch 15-20 cr. Also, overseas share was expected to be 10 cr. But the film has under-performed overseas, share will only be 6 crore range.

      So the extra 10 crore has to be recovered from Indian theatrical business.

      We know our job, leave it to us.

  • @chalaa MSG rock big…….. becoz…….. it is made wid clean heart unlike other film……..which has media -hyped media-made affair rumour link-up star who does cheap tactics to create buzz like affair rumour……!! ….

  • good for akshay to get atleast above avove average because he was giving flop after flop hope brothers will hit so as singh is bling.

  • Trade figure is 2 crore on Sunday….By the way,BABY:-a film,having no dialogue-baazi,no romantic or item songs,no sex,no daredevil stunts etc etc but the movie is mesemerizing…

  • @chala. Baby was great in the second half. First half was damn boring. A movie need to be good in both the halves then only it can be called great movie. I guess Brothers is an action movie, if so then it woudnt cross 150 crs cos of Akki’s dilogue delivery. I think Akshay shud stick to comedy films, he is very good at it. Rowdy Rathode had grossed 130 crs cos Akshay role was of a comedy actor baring few scenes in which he comes as rowdy Rathode or else it wouldnt have grossed 60 crs lol.

  • Forget 100 Cr. Akshay Kumar represents Above Average/Average/Below Average/Flop/Disaster. But from Baby I had expected 200 + Crore. 3000 Screens, Republic weekend & 50 percent higher ticket price than Holiday. Baby is A Below Average Movie.

  • @chalaa. I feel Akshay’s stardom has gone all time low with OATIM2. It is cos his weakness (dialogue delivery) has played an important factor in the movie. After that movie, his movies opening was similar to newcomers like varun and arjun. Akshay film can even goss 200 crores with a movie like Rowdy Rathode, Singh is King, Welcome etc. But Akshay is doing actions films like Ramana remake etc which is a wrong choice for him cos he didnt do much with actions films in 90’s and early 2000. Even Holiday was a great film, if some other actors like Ajay devgan or khans or Hrithik or even Ranbir have done it , it woud have easily grossed 175 crores, but Akshay spoiled it. He shud choose comedy roles with ryt script but with good directors like Anees bazme etc.

  • @Troublesome Buddha don’t try to appease us…….. It will not make for all negativity u have spoke for 6 months abt akki …….!! ……
    Who r u to reduce verdict to semi-hit…… ???? …… It is hit !! …. Okay ,,, u silly idiot …… !! ….

  • Arre yaar…!! …. Collections r more than tevar masterpiece…….!! …..
    Now buddha will try to appease akki , ajay fans …… Becoz he has spoke non-sense , negativity hatred cmnts abt ajay akki all those months ………..!! …….
    Chameleon buddha indeed…….

  • @Ajinkya I could understand your hatred towards Arjun since he isn’t a very a brilliant actor but Ranbir is the best of the younger lot.You can’t hate his acting in movies like rockstar or barfi.It’s just a matter of time he becomes the next big thing in Bollywood.
    @Saroop Akshay was flawless in Holiday.The reason why RR became a blockbuster was due to Akki’s return to action after a long gap.

  • It should cross Aamir’s Talaash which is a great achievement. It will become second highest thriller movie in India after Don 2.

  • Producer will lose 5 crores Distributer more. Reason for failure of Baby and rejection from audience is the fact that audience is now more mature and they know that BABY was an agencies propaganda film. How can a movie show any one tterrorist tterrorist and tterrorist with out telling the reason. bcoz the reason is that Both indo pak agencies are involved in cross border tterorissm as a REVANGE game. these defence people on both side are eating 80% of our both country budget. Super powers are also taking advantage of this fight by selling weapons. REJECT EVERY PROPOGANDA FILM even if great AKSHAY stars in that. bcoz we want Subcontinent to progress and we want INDIOPAK and kashmiri people solving the meaning less fights and live happily. THANKS ALL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

  • @some buddha mukherjee

    Heed Indicines advice you village idiot n get back to your day job of promoting chameleonistan…!

  • @indicine – that its ur job also to publish hny final overseas total and worldwide total.
    forget it.i have written this 2-3 times but u will do only what u have decided.
    for me – baby was a good movie and i am happy with what it has collected.

  • What a superb reply @indicine agree with you.
    Mai pehle hi kehta tha babe hit status deserve nahi karti.
    Babe crap movie hai.
    Waiting for Brother

  • Akki now a days lost somewhere.he doesn’t care of good script.rather he is caring so much about whether making 10 pack is possible or not,how to make perfect body shape whether he himself couldn’t get.clearly he is running after money.he is jealous of KING KHAN.so even he didone of the best performance still he got flop,this what he got is truly deserving,ha ha 60 club actor,lol.

  • @chalaa thatz the problem with u fellas …… Barfi n rockstar were flawed films….. N there was nothing great in work of ranbir in it……… U are under the influence of hypnotic media who has over-promoted ranbir ……….. See after disaster besharam he has remain in news… Only becoz of media n affair rumours…….. !! ….
    Any other actor like akki ajay …. U ppl would have bashed him black n blue……… !! ….

  • I already watch 4 time BABY movie.
    I was shocked because i watch with Myanmar subtitle even all correct words.
    Today i watch Shamitabh also Myanmar subtitle. Oh god! What happened in myanmar.
    Akki should do out and out comedy movie that good for akki.
    Baby deserves atleast Semi-hit verdict.
