Chandu Champion directed by Kabir Khan and starring Kartik Aaryan, Vijay Raaz, Rajpal Yadav and others, held well on first Monday courtesy the Eid holiday, as it netted Rs 5 crores. The collections on Eid Monday are higher than the opening day and that is a good sign. The four day total of Chandu Champion now stands at a little over Rs 25 crores and the first weekend can hit Rs 33-34 crores if all goes well.

Chandu Champion Collects More On Eid Monday Than Opening Day As It Netts Rs 5 Crores

Chandu Champion has got good word of mouth but the numbers are still lower than what they should be. A film starring an a-list actor, that is helmed by an a-list director should be performing better at the box office than how it is. The collections of Munjya on second Monday were matching Chandu Champion's numbers and they might even be higher than Chandu Champion's numbers on Tuesday since the horror-comedy is holding supremely in the mass circuits.
