The multi-starrer film has a good start at the commercial circuits with an earning of ₹16.50 crore on its opening day at the box office. ‘Total Dhamaal’ observed an excellent jump on its second and third day at the box office where it collected ₹20.40 crores and ₹25.50 crores respectively. It is the highest first-weekend collection of the year beating the numbers of the last week collection of ‘Gully Boy’ by ₹10 crores.
The film failed to impress movie critics but managed to make a mark on Box Office as well as among the audience.
