''Wazir'' was 1st prominent release of new year 2016. Film had interesting cast as it pitches Farhan Akhtar opposite Amitabh Bachchan. But poor track record of director Beejoy Nambiar at box office and unexciting promos made it a bad bet at box office.

Film released without much fanfare and there was not much expectations from this. Film opened to poor occupancy of 15% and though it grew throughout the opening day but not in a big way. Short running time of 92 minutes ensured very good release size and shows.

Film managed decent day one and collected 5.57 cr nett on day one.

Film collected only in premium multiplexes in Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and these properties tend to drop considerably on weekdays. But then film managed to grow on Saturday which was surprise as it had growth of 33% with collection coming close to 7.16 cr nett. But then film failed to show much needed growth on Sunday with flat collection of 8.24 cr nett.

And as expected, film fell badly on Monday and managed just 2.55 cr nett followed by 2.28 cr nett on Tuesday, 1.88 cr nett on Wednesday and 2.33 cr nett on Thursday. Film has total of 30.05 cr nett in week one. Film dropped heavily on 2nd Friday and collected 1.69 cr nett followed by 2.14 cr nett on 2nd Saturday and 2.45 cr nett on Sunday.

Film added 6.60 cr nett in 2nd weekend. Film dropped on 2nd Monday and collected 92 lakhs nett followed by 78 lakhs nett on Tuesday, 70 lakhs nett on Wednesday and 65 lakhs nett on Thursday. Film added 9.34 cr nett in 2nd week which was 65% drop from week one which in itself was low.

Film crashed finally on 3rd Friday with 23 lakhs nett number followed by 27 lakhs nett on Saturday. Film has total of 39.89 cr nett in 16 days and it is heading for 41 cr nett lifetime finish.

Film also collected average number of 1.57 million $ (10.48 cr) in overseas in three days which is less than overseas weekend total of last solo Farhan Akhtar starrer ''''Shaadi Ke Side Effects''''. Film collected 14.22 cr in overseas in week one and 19.10 cr in two weeks. Overall flop!

Below are the collections for the film -
