Shehzada Box Office Collection Day 3: Kartik Aaryan-Kriti Sanon starrer "Shehzada" failed to register major growth on its opening weekend at the box office. The film, released on February 17 (Friday), saw a slight growth on the third day as it failed to create magic at the domestic box office on the first Sunday.

The action-comedy-drama earned Rs 7.55 crore on Day 3, February 19 (first Sunday) which took the total collection to Rs 20.20 crore.

According to film critic Taran Adarsh, Aaryan's film did not live up to his expectations as the weekend business was below the mark. The film's much-needed big jump was clearly missing on Saturday and Sunday, he added.

"#Shehzada doesn’t live up to the expectations… The weekend biz is below the mark… The *big* jump / turnaround on Sat and Sun - to improve its prospects - is clearly missing… Fri 6 cr, Sat 6.65 cr, Sun 7.55 cr. Total: ₹ 20.20 cr [+/-]. #India biz," Adarsh tweeted.
