The film made a disappointing collection of Rs 8.46 crore on Friday, the day it was released. The earnings soared to Rs 12.78 crore on Saturday. Given the kind of jump the film saw on the box office on its second day, Phantom is likely to pick up steam and end up with an impressive number by Monday morning.
