However, after a strong earning in the week 1, the film witnessed a major fall on the second Friday and earned on low note over the second weekend.

Ranbir Kapoor's film remained low on the weekdays and the second week showed a big drop of 67% from the first week. The earning degraded further in the third week and the film only managed to collect Rs. 69 crores in its lifetime.

Rockstar could really perform well in the overseas and received below average response in the overseas market. The music of the film received excellent reviews and contributed a lot to the film's earning.
