Baby John, which was directed by Kalees, has already attracted an audience because of its cast of celebrities and marketing campaigns. But the movie's revenue has fallen short of expectations, which raises questions about how well it will do overall in the days ahead.
Action-thriller Baby John had a good start, but it now has to contend with keeping viewers interested in the face of tough competition from other films. According to industry insiders, word-of-mouth reviews and weekend attendance will be crucial to the movie's future earnings.

According to the tracking website Sacnilk, on day two, the movie brought in about Rs 3.9 crore (net) in India. In Hindi, Baby John's overall occupancy rate on the second day was 9.39%.
