Hate Story 4 opened to decent collections in some parts of the country but overall the opening is much lower than the last installment of the film. The opening is decent in places like UP, Bihar and CI but Hate Story 3 had opened well in the cities as well. 

The metros were not great for Hate Story 3 but the major A centers like Jaipur, Surat, Nagpur etc all put up healthy figures while Hate Story 4 is unlikely to repeat and put up decent figures in the smaller cities. The first day can come out with a decent number if mass circuits sustain through the day and give a good contribution.

Hate Story 3 was probably an aberration with its 8.54 crore nett opening day and the target here will be to beat Hate Story 2 which will be a good result in terms of the costs of Hate Story 4.

The opening day figures of the Hate Story films so far are as follows.

Hate Story 1 - 2,07,00,000

Hate Story 2 - 4,82,00,000

Hate Story 3 - 8,54,00,000

There were a few other releases like 3, Storeys, Dil Juunglee and Note Pe Chot At 8/11 which opened poorly with Three Storeys being the best of this lot.

There were also some Sridevi films making it to the theaters like Chandni, Mom and Lamhe but the time when a demise of a popular star gets audiences to theaters is long gone due to the satellite invasion.
