Baby John, directed by Kalees and starring Varun Dhawan, continues to struggle at the box office. The mass action drama failed to strike chords with the audience. 

Baby John crumbles on Day 9 after New Year; collects Rs 75 lakh 

Released on December 25 with much anticipation, the Atlee-presented commercial potboiler couldn't lure the audience much and sealed its fate at the box office. The Varun Dhawan, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Keerthy Suresh starrer movie had seen some hold on New Year by minting Rs 2.60 crore. However, it dropped the following day and added Rs 75 lakh to the tally today, on its 9th day of release. 

The total cume of Baby John currently stands at Rs 34.35 crore net at the Indian box office. Looking at its disastrous trends, the movie is near its theatrical end. It is expected to remain under Rs 45 crore in its entire run, domestically, bagging a disaster verdict. 

For the unversed, Baby John is a remake of a popular Tamil movie, Theri. One of the major reasons why the Varun Dhawan movie failed to pull the audience is its remake tag. Further, it met with average talks, which acted as the final nail in the coffin. 

The day-wise net India collections of Baby John are as under:

Day India Net Collections
1 Rs 10.75 crore
2 Rs 4.25 crore
3 Rs 3.25 crore
4 Rs 4.25 crore
5 Rs 4.50 crore
6 Rs 2 crore
7 Rs 2 crore
8 Rs 2.60 crore
9 Rs 0.75 crore
Total Rs 34.35 crore net
