This was followed by another dip on day 5 (first Tuesday), with early estimates indicating a collection of Rs 3.25 crores. This brought the overall collections of Chandu Champion to Rs 29.75 crores.

Kabir Khan recently addressed the film's low opening in an interview with Times Now. He stated, "The slow start did throw us off balance. But luckily, the word-of-mouth was positive. Let's see how it goes from here. Nowadays, it's hard to predict anything about the box office. We made a film which we thought would be liked by the audience. I am glad the audience ratio is increasing. These are tough times. We should be grateful for whatever attention the audience gives us."
