Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone starrer 'Fighter' has packed an "impressive" total in its extended weekend, trade analyst Taran Adarsh said on Monday.
The Siddharth Anand-directed movie earned Rs 30.20 crore at the box office on Sunday which took its four-day-long weekend collection to a total of Rs 123.60 crore.
"The biz of Fighter is clearly divided… While urban centres range from excellent to very good, the mass pockets / single screens haven't tapped its real potential… Post *extended weekend*, the biz needs to stay strong across metros, non-metros and mass belt," he said in a post on X.
The real examination for the movie begins today, the make-or-break Monday, he added.
