Before the release, Vijay Deverakonda had claimed that his pan-India movie, 'Liger', would cross Rs 200 crore. But, his claims are appearing to fall flat since the film, co-starring actors Ramya Krishnan and Ananya Panday is registering a dip in collections on a daily basis.

Pur Jagannadh’s directorial film ‘Liger’ marked the Hindi debut of South actor Vijay Deverakonda. It is also the first pan-India release of the actor that has been released in multiple languages including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada. One of the highly anticipated films of this year, it was expected that Liger would have fire cracking performance at the box office. However, looking at its collection in the last four days of its release, particularly the first weekend, Liger has failed the audience's expectations. Take a look at the film’s collection which also features actors Ramya Krishnan and Ananya Panday.

Liger has been made on a budget of Rs 125 crores; the challenge of extracting the budget has now arisen in front of this film. Not only this, but before the release of the film, Vijay Deverakonda had claimed that the film would earn Rs 200 crores. But can this happen? Only time will tell.
