Backed by Aamir Khan, the period drama stars Sunny Deol, Preity Zinta, Shabana Azmi, Ali Fazal, Karan Deol and Kanikka Kapur in prominent roles.<\/p>\n<p>A post shared by Aamir Khan Productions (@aamirkhanproductions)<\/p>\n<p>The film opened to a decent \u20b95.75 Cr on Day 1 and maintained a positive momentum through the opening weekend. However, its collections witnessed a steep decline on Monday, and Tuesday has offered little respite so far. As of 7:30 PM, Batwara 1947 has reportedly earned around \u20b91.13 Cr net today.

With this, its total India gross collection stands at \u20b9114.83 Cr, while the India net collection has reached \u20b995.93 Cr.<\/p>\n<p>The current box office numbers paint a clear picture.
