Roohi Box Office Collection: Janhvi Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao-starrer rakes in Rs 17.50 cr in first week

Janhvi Kapoor and Rajkumar Rao-starrer Roohi was one of the first major films to release after the Centre allowed cinema halls to function at full capacity in the country. The horror comedy film managed to rake in Rs 17.50 crore in the first week of its release. The film was released on Mahashivratri i.e March 11.

Gross collection of Rs 17.50 crore is a respectable number in view of the COVID-19 outbreak scenario in the country, explained box office analyst Taran Adarsh. After registering high numbers during the weekend, Roohi's daily collections have been on a downward slope during the weekdays. Adarsh provided a day-by-day breakdown of Roohi's domestic earnings.

• Thursday, March 11 - Rs3.06 crore
• Friday, March 12 - Rs 2.25 crore
• Saturday, March 13 - Rs 3.42 crore
• Sunday, March 14 - Rs 3.85 crore
• Monday, March 15 - Rs 1.35 crore
• Tuesday, March 16 - Rs 1.26 crore
• Wednesday, March 17 - Rs 1.22 crore

A week into its release, Roohi has grossed Rs 16.41 crore domestically and Rs 1.09 crore internationally.
