As expected Padmaavat started off with a bang at the box office. Sanjay Leela Bhansali's controversial film opened on a strong note across all circuits in India and on overseas.
The film's day 1 nett in Nizam is Rs. 2.2 crore, which is huge. The film is carrying decent reports and is set for a strong first weekend.
Anushka's Friday release Bhaagamathie also is off to a flier. Strong pre release buzz translated into great day 1 numbers. The film is carrying good to decent reports from all corners.
With no other film to compete with Bhaagamathie can post superb figures in its opening weekend.
