The start is encouraging, but weekends are where Dhamaal films truly come alive. With families and friend groups expected to turn out over Saturday and Sunday, a big box office jump looks likely. So how much did it earn on Day 1, and can it keep the momentum going?

Dhamaal 4 raked in ₹13.75 crore in net domestic box office on its opening day, according to film trade portal Sacnilk. This translates into India's gross collections of ₹16.50 crore and worldwide earnings of ₹21.50 crore on day 1.

The film is likely to see a good jump in its business over the weekend as comedies seem to have come back in vogue after Bhooth Bangla and Welcome To The Jungle. Dhamaal 4 is eyeing the ₹50 crore mark over the 3-day opening weekend before the crucial Monday test, according to Bollywood Hungama.
