Saheb, Biwi aur Gangster 3 box office collection: Sanjay Dutt biopic Sanju is having a dream run in cinemas for weeks. It is slated to become the biggest Bollywood film ever too! Therefore, one would have thought that Sanjay Dutt releasing another movie, in which he is the star, would really help the film as far as box office collection is concerned. However, even though Sanjay plays his inimitable self to the hilt in Saheb Biwi aur Gangster 3, its collection is unlikely to get any boost worth the name! That is according to a trade analyst. In fact, he has painted the doomsday scenario for it.

Taking to Twitter today, trade analyst Sumit Kadel made this prediction: "#SahebBiwiAurGangster3 opened with disastrous 8-10% occupancy in the morning shows across India.  #MissionImpossibleFallout opens well." While that is bad enough, he followed it up with another one after a while that had an ever direr message: "Initial reports of #SahebBiwiAurGangster3 suggests that this film will be discontinued from most of the theaters after the weekend."

This is a massive fall from grace, surely! This is a Tigmashu Dhulia franchise and it has all the ingredients including guns and beautifull women. However, the critics have not received it well and have panned the movie, despite Dhulia having hyped it up by saying this latest film was made on a grander scale in every way. However, the low occupancy rate on opening day shows that it has not left cinema goers too thrilled.

Earlier, speaking to Indian Express Online, analyst Girish Johar said that he expected Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3 to earn anywhere near Rs 2.5 cr on opening day. Problem with the movie is that it will also run into 2 movies that are doing well at the box office. These are Ranbir Kapoor starrer Sanju and Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter starrer Dhadak. While the first has hit the Rs 337 cr mark, the latter is now a Rs 50 cr movie!
