As for the Hindi version of the film, ‘Brahmastra’ saw a drop of 55 percent on Monday as it collected around Rs 14 crore nett. “The film did see better holds in mass pockets, but this is more to do with the fact that these places have fewer cinemas with big ticket price drops on Monday and with the big films they generally hold better till Wednesday,” a Box Office India report stated.
