After much hard work and efforts, the movie finally released after almost four years and it got mixed reviews from the audiences as well as critics. It had 30% growth in the collection on its second day. The movie was made on a budget of Rs 110 crore and if the collection goes on like this, then it is likely to recover the production cost.
Talking about the cost of production trade expert Girish Johar said, āMakers could have cut the cost of production by 50%. If the film wouldnāt have been delayed, Jagga Jasoos would have a cake walk at the box office. The film is getting a lot of traction from children and families.āā
Also, a source revealed, āThe film should have been made in Rs 50-60 crore. The film was also shot multiple times.Ā Ranbir KapoorĀ and Anurag Basu didnāt have a script in hand and they were shooting the film on Anuragās instinct. There was also an entire song shot onĀ Govinda. That track was also reshot and eventually taken out. All this must have increased the budget.āā
The movie left behind Baahubali 2 in Pakistan. Baahubali 2 earned Rs 69 lakhs whereas Jagga Jasoos collected Rs 73 lakhs at the Pakistani box office.
