According to a report on Sacnilk, Bandar collected an estimated Rs 50 lakh net in India on its opening day and earned approximately Rs 60 lakh gross domestically from 1,365 shows.

Additionally, it faced direct competition from Varun Dhawan’s Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai and Ram Charan’s multilingual action drama Peddi. Both the films drew significantly larger audiences on opening day.

About Bandar

Directed by Anurag Kashyap, written by Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Banerjee, the team behind Paatal Lok, Kohrra and Udta Punjab, Bandar is the kind of film Anurag Kashyap built his name on. Dark, unflinching, morally slippery. Not interested in telling you what to think. Very interested in making sure you can’t look away.

Bandar is written by Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Banerjee, the acclaimed duo behind Paatal Lok, Kohhra, and Udta Punjab. Directed by Anurag Kashyap, the crime thriller and drama has been produced by Nikhil Dwivedi’s Saffron Magicworks. Bobby Deol starrer has been backed by Zee Studios.
