The film fell slightly short of the Rs 5 crore mark. Interestingly, the kind of growth recorded by ‘Uunchai’ is rare for post-pandemic original Hindi film releases. ‘Uunchai’ collection has jumped 100% in most of the circuits, be it Mumbai, Delhi / UP, CP Berar or CI. This trend shows that ‘Uunchai’ has potential for a strong Sunday collection and eventually a good first weekend business too.
