Though the film opened to mixed reviews, critics and audiences loved the performances and unique storyline which indeed is a hero of the film. The film is about menstrual hygiene, which is still considered as taboo in many parts of our country.
The film opened to a decent start on Box-Office and minted 10.26 Cr on its opening day. The day saw some growth in the business and film collected 13.68 crores. Though we are still waiting for day 3 collections we are sure it will surpass the Saturday collection.
Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh shared the figures on Twitter. He wrote, "#PadMan makes RAPID STRIDES on Sat... Picks up SPEED... Biz should be STRONG on Sun too... HEALTHY weekend is on the cards... Fri 10.26 cr, Sat 13.68 cr. Total: ₹ 23.94 cr. India biz."
