Varun Dhawan’s film Baby John is failing to perform well at the box office. The film was released on 25 December and received mixed reviews. However, if we talk about box office collection, there is a continuous decline in the film’s earnings. Even after 4 days of release, the film has not been able to cross the Rs 25 crore mark.
four days box office collection
According to Sacnilk report, the film has collected approximately ₹4.25 crore on the fourth day.
- Four-day total collection: ₹23.90 crore.
- However, these figures for the fourth day are initial estimates and official confirmation is awaited.
Earnings for the first four days:
- Day 1: ₹11.25 crore.
- Day 2: ₹4.75 crore.
- Day 3: ₹3.65 crore.
- Day 4: ₹4.25 crore (estimated).
The film had a decent start on the first day, but saw a huge decline in the collections from the second day itself.
These are the lead actresses in the film
Baby John is directed by Kalees and produced by Atlee.
- Keerthy Suresh and Vamika Gabbi are in important roles in the film.
- Varun Dhawan is playing the role of IPS Satya Verma in the film.
Film shows were replaced
Due to the poor performance of the film, many of its shows were replaced with the Malayalam action film Marco.

- Marco is getting better response from the audience, which is proving to be another blow for Baby John.
