Mumbai, September 6, 2025 — Despite high anticipation and impressive advance bookings, Baaghi 4 delivered a middling first day at the box office. Worldwide, the film collected around ₹17 crore, including ₹14.15 crore in India and an additional ₹3 crore overseas.
This performance falls short of its predecessors: Baaghi 3 made ₹26.50 crore on its opening day, while Baaghi 2 posted an even higher ₹25.10 crore, and the original Baaghi earned ₹11.85 crore.
Domestic net earnings for Day 1 stood at ₹12 crore, according to industry trackers.
Context & Analysis
-
Despite robust pre-release buzz and early ticket sales pushing Baaghi 4 ahead of films like Param Sundari, The Bengal Files, and Jaat in advance bookings, the Day 1 performance didn’t live up to expectations.
The film faced stiff competition from The Conjuring: Last Rites, which outpaced all Indian releases with an ₹18 crore opening in India, the highest for a Hollywood horror in the country.
Industry insiders had anticipated a strong opening, with advance sales pegged between ₹5 to ₹10 crore, boosted by Day 1 promotional offers like buy-one-get-one. However, even that failed to materialise fully.
Compounding the lacklustre turnout was an early leak of the film online, which may have impacted theatre attendance and contributed to lower-than-expected revenue.
