Circuit wise :
CP: 1.78 Crore

Rajasthan: 1.65 Crore
First Day has also been effected a bit due to Baahubali in South
First Day is lower because during ramzan before Eid most muslims don't watch any movie this is called Pre Eid effect in Trade.
Bajrangi Bhaijaan Budget:
Salman Khan's salary is 60 crore for the movie and so the total cost of the movie is 125 crore for the producer.
Due to Salman Khan's previous multi films contract with a satellite channel Bajrangi Bhaijaan is set to recover 65 Crore from just satellite and music
Producer has sold the worldwide distribution rights to eros for 100 crore so even pre release Producer is in profit.
For Eros after prints and promotion total cost is Rs 125 Crores which should be easily recoverable.
Earlier:
Bajrangi Bhaijaan has opened at a strong 65-70% opening at box office all India. Bajrangi Bhaijaan is comfortably set to have highest first day box office collections of 2015
The Opening is at similar levels as Kick last year but compared to Kick which had chartbuster music Bajrangi Bhaijaan music is not as successful which shows that opening is completely on Salman Khan's star pull.
Kick collected 26 Crores on its opening day and with such an opening day and Trade expectation is that Bajrangi should do between 26-30 Crores on its first day.
The opening is at such a big level despite Pre Eid which shows his strong pull
Opening of Bajrangi Bhaijaan is also better than PK so far though PK picked up later in the day.
Best opening areas have been in North with Delhi and Punjab taking the lead.
West Bengal and South India is on the lower side.
In South especially Bangalore and Hyderabad Baahubali's success has meant lower number of screens for this Salman Khan starrer and this will cause at least a crore to be lost .
Salman Khan had a good success and star pull in Andhra and Karnatka single screens and all these single screens are with baahubali so lack of these screens might pull Bajrangi Down a bit.
Despite the effect of Baahubali Bajrangi should at least match Kick and if it goes higher if would be considered extraordinary by Trade
