Badla vs Captain Marvel box office collection day 1: Amitabh Bachchan starrer opens well, Hollywood film steals show

Badla box office collection day 1: Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu starrer has made a decent debut at the box office, earning Rs 5.04 crore in India collection on day 1. Though the film started with low occupancy, Badla picked up the pace in the evening, as it received favourable reviews from movie critics and audience alike from across the country. 

In the opening day business, Badla earned better than 2016 release Pink (Rs 4.32 cr) and 2018 release 102 Not Out, which earned Rs 3.52 cr in India business.  However, on the same day, Marvel Cinematic Universe's Captain Marvel also grabbed the limelight and is giving a tough time to Sujoy Ghosh's latest release. Badla is far behind the Hollywood film Captain Marvel, which earned over Rs 15 crore on its day 1 in India business.

"#Badla goes from strength to strength on Day 1... Picked up speed late afternoon onwards at metros, with appreciable growth in evening... Strong word of mouth has come into play... Should witness substantial growth on Day 2 and 3... Fri ₹ 5.04 cr. India biz. Gross: ₹ 5.94 cr, Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted today.
