The Varun Dhawan starrer has been raking in dismal numbers at the box office leading to its ouster from a few multiplexes.

With tough competition from 'Mufasa The Lion King' and 'Pushpa 2: The Rule', Varun Dhawan-starrer 'Baby John' made an underwhelming opening at the global box office.

Baby John's box office collection is underwhelming, with ₹4.25 crore on day four and a total of ₹23.90 crore. The film, made on a ₹160 crore budget, is projected to earn less than ₹60 crore, marking a potential box office failure.

Who scored the best on Saturday? Is it Varun Dhawan, Allu Arjun, Kiccha Sudeep or Shah Rukh Khan-Mahesh Babu-dubbed animation drama? Read on to know more.

( MENAFN - Live Mint) Baby John box office collection Day 3: Baby John starring Varun Dhawan witnessed another drop in its daily collection. According to Sacnilk, early estimates show that the Hindi adaptation of Atlee's 2016 Tamil blockbuster starring Vijay, Theri, minted just ₹3.65 crore on the third day of its release.

Varun Dhawan's Baby John opened to a modest start, collecting Rs 12.5 crore on its first day. Despite being Varun's best opening in five years, it faces tough competition from Pushpa 2 and Kannada hit Max.

Despite getting the push from being a Christmas holiday release, Varun Dhawan’s Baby John had a decent opening day collection at the box office. The Kalees directorial's performance was mostly hit by the continued dominance of Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 and the clash with Disney's Mufasa: The Lion King.

Varun Dhawan's eagerly awaited film 'Baby John' underperformed at the box office, earning Rs 12.5 crore on its opening day, falling short against 'Pushpa 2' which continues to dominate ticket sales during the holiday season.

The Varun Dhawan-starrer opened to mixed reviews upon release. It is directed by Kalees and presented by Atlee.
