The Great Indian Family box office collection day 3: Vicky Kaushal starrer registers minor Sunday growth, earns Rs 5.12 cr over first weekend

Battling Jawan

The Great Indian Family opened to poor reviews on Friday and had a muted release. Riding on virtually no promotions, the film opened to a mere Rs 1.4 cr at the box office. No promotions–and the absence of any chartbuster song–wasn’t the only roadblock for the film, as it also faced Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which showed no signs of stopping even as it entered its third weekend with smashing box office collections.

Post The Great Indian Family, Vicky Kaushal will now await the release of his next, Sam Bahadur. The Meghna Gulzar directorial is based on the life of India’s first field marshal, Sam Manekshaw. Sam Bahadur will release on December 1, where it will have a box office face-off with Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal.

Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya of Dhoom 3 and Thugs of Hindostan fame, The Great Indian Family follows a man from a family of priests and religious men, whose life takes a turn when the details of his birth and lineage come to the surface. The Great Indian Family also stars Kumud Mishra, Manoj Pahwa, Sadi Siddiqui, Alka Amin and Srishti Dixit among others.
