According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Sunny Deol's movie earned ₹85 lakh on Friday, Day 16. Jaat, which saw a 7.41 per cent drop in earnings on Thursday, was hit by another 32 per cent on Friday.

Over its 16-day run at the theatres, Jaat has minted ₹81.6 crore net in India.

Jaat also stars Randeep Hooda, Viineet Kumar Siingh, Ramya Krishnan, and Jagapathi Babu in pivotal roles.

Jaat week-on-week earnings

According to Sacnilk, Jaat, which was released in theatres on April 10, had witnessed a lush 8-day opening week and had collected ₹61.65 crore during the run.

However, the movie's week-on-week earnings were hit massively, mainly due to strong competition from Akshay Kumar's Kesari 2 and Jaat's run-in with controversy and an FIR.

Sacnilk said Jaat earned just ₹19.04 crore in its second week, 69.12 per cent lower than its first week's earnings.
