The Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia starrer The Vvaan has made a strong start at the box office, grossing Rs 9.60 crore on its opening day, according to industry tracker Sacnilk.

The film, directed by Deepak Kumar Mishra and Arunabh Kumar, opened across an estimated 1,800 to 2,000 screens in India, with 6,746 shows.

According to early estimates, the film was expected to open with Rs 10 crore based on advance bookings, but the actual opening day collections fell slightly short of expectations.

The Vvaan's opening day performance is considered strong for Sidharth Malhotra's career, though it remains behind some of his biggest starts.

The film's morning and noon shows were suggestive of an Rs 8 crore start, but the word of mouth has curtailed the business to around Rs 7 crore.

The national chains are looking to collect in the range of Rs 3.50 crore, contributing 50 per cent to the total business.

The Vvaan has high costs, and it ideally had to open in double digits to have things in its favour.

Despite the reviews hovering around an average rating, the film's opening day performance has managed to surpass that of Sidharth's previous release, Param Sundari, which opened to Rs 7 crore.

The Vvaan has earned in the range of 9 – 9.5 crore on Friday, September 25, day 1.

The Vvaan has the potential to be the much-needed box office success for Sidharth Malhotra who has been struggling for a big hit.

The Vvaan has made around Rs 9 crore on day one, beating Param Sundari (Rs 7.37 crore) and Thank God (Rs 8.10 crore).
