Shahid
Kapoor's
sports
drama
Jersey,
which
released
last
week,
opened
to
rave
reviews
from
critics
and
the
audience.
However,
the
positive
word
of
mouth
failed
to
translate
into
big
numbers
as
the
film
crashed
at
the
box
office
on
Monday.
According
to
early
estimates,
the
collections
of
Jersey
dropped
by
45-50%
on
Monday
(Day
4).
The
film
minted
around
Rs
1.70
to
Rs
1.80
Crore.
The
total
box
office
collection
of
Jersey
now
stands
at
around
Rs
16-17
Crore.
With
two
major
releases,
Ajay
Devgn-Amitabh
Bachchan's
Runway
34
and
Tiger
Shroff
starrer
Heropanti
2
lined
up
for
this
week,
it
looks
up
like
Jersey
might
wrap
up
at
a
lifetime
total
of
just
Rs
20
Crore,
and
turn
out
to
be
a
major
flop!
Shahid
Kapoor's
Jersey
has
been
major
affected
by
Yash's
KGF
Chapter
2
which
is
still
setting
the
box
office
on
fire.
The
Hindi
version
of
KGF
Chapter
2
has
already
entered
Rs
300
Crore
club.
Even
Ram
Charan-Jr
NTR's
RRR
is
rocky-steady
in
its
fifth
week
and
has
collected
Rs
261.83
Crore
(Hindi
version).
Both
these
movies
have
impacted
Shahid's
film
at
the
box
office.
Speaking
about
Jersey,
the
Gowtam
Tinnanuri
directorial
is
an
official
Hindi
remake
of
Nani's
acclaimed
2019
film
by
the
same
name
which
had
also
bagged
two
National
Awards.
The
film
revolves
around
an
ex-cricketer
who
returns
back
to
the
cricket
ground
after
his
son
asks
him
to
gift
him
an
Indian
jersey
as
a
birthday
present.
The
film
also
features
Mrunal
Thakur
and
Pankaj
Kapur
in
pivotal
roles.
