Ranveer
Singh's
sports
drama
83
opened
to
rave
reviews
from
the
critics
and
the
film
fraternity.
However
despite
positive
word
of
mouth,
the
Kabir
Khan
directorial
had
a
lukewarm
start
at
the
box
office
as
it
minted
Rs
12.64
crore
on
its
day
1
of
release.
Talking
about
its
performance
at
the
ticket
window,
the
film
has
collected
Rs
7.29
crore
on
Monday
taking
the
total
box
office
collection
to
Rs
54.29
crore
(all
languages
collection).
Trade

Adarsh
tweeted,
"#83TheFilm
remains
low...
A
double
digit
Day

would've
salvaged
the
situation,
but
the
rejection
is
apparent
in
its
numbers...
Premium
multiplexes
are
driving
its
biz,
but
that's
not
enough...

released
in

screens
across
in
the
country
in
multiple

like
Hindi,

and

Trade
analyst
Taran
Adarsh
had
earlier
tweeted
that
the
non
performance
of
83
has
sent
shock
waves
since
it
came
with
a
bigger
price
tag
and
bigger
expectations.
He
had
mentioned
in
another
tweet,
"Let's
see
if
#83TheFilm
gathers
pace
in
the
coming
days...
Besides
tough
competition
from
holdover
titles
[#SpiderMan,
#PushpaHindi],
the
release
calendar
is
chock-a-block
with
films:
#Jersey
[31
Dec]
and
#RRR
[7
Jan]...
The
fact
is,
#83TheFilm
has
limited
time
to
score!"
Coming
back
to
83'
performance
in
overseas,
the
Ranveer
Singh
film
has
collected
Rs
26.16
crore
in
three
days.
Earlier
in
an
interview
with
Pinkvilla,
Kabir
Khan
had
recalled
his
first
meeting
with
the
former
Indian
captain
Kapil
Dev
and
revealed
that
the
latter
had
told
him
that
he
doesn't
want
83
to
be
just
about
him,
but
the
entire
team.
Khan
had
also
said
that
he
made
sure
that
he
didn't
fall
for
the
troupes
of
a
sports
drama
and
added,
"I
didn't
want
to
be
distracted
by
romance,
back
story
and
other
tropes
of
a
usual
sports
film.
Further,
the
filmmaker
had
also
called
Ranveer
'the
finest
actor
of
his
generation'.
