The post-climax scene also featured a special appearance from Salman Khan.
Baby John, a remake of Atlee's 2016 Tamil success, Theri, is turning out to be biggest flops of Bollywood. In its first 11 days of release, the movie brought in a total of Rs 37.70 crore in India. Early projections from the box office tracking website sacnilk indicate that Baby John made only 90 lakh on Sunday, January 5. Baby John has so far earned Rs 38.60 crore.

Baby John Fails To Recover Budget
According to reports, Baby John, which was made on an astounding budget of Rs 160 crore, is having trouble staying within its means. In addition, the movie is having trouble breaking the Rs 40 crore barrier at the box office over the second weekend.
If the current trajectory continues, Baby John probably won't be able to reach the 40 crore level today either. However, by the conclusion of the second weekend, it might get a little bit closer to the mark.
The Varun Dhawan movie has not been well received and has not been able to draw crowds to theaters. During this holiday season, audiences are picking the Hollywood animated musical Mufasa: The Lion King and the Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil, over Baby John.
