Docu-drama "Sachin: A Billion Dreams" based on the life of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar has earned Rs 8.6 crore at the box office on its first day, according to its distributor.
The film was released in 2,450 screens across the country in Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and English.
"We are very happy with the response. It has done a business of Rs 8.6 crore in India," distributor Anil Thadani told PTI.
Thadani said the film was doing well both in single screens and multiplexes.
Executive director of Gaiety, Galaxy and Maratha Mandir cinema Manoj Desai said, "The crowd is enjoying watching the film. The film is doing decent but it is not running housefull in all theatres."
Directed by James Erskine and produced by Ravi Bhagchandani, the film gives fans a glimpse into Sachin's personal life besides his achievements in the cricketing arena.
