Baby Girl Box Office Collection Day 8: Nivin Pauly’s latest release Baby Girl is facing a tough time at the box office. The film, which hit theaters on January 23, 2026, has been struggling to attract audiences since its opening week, and the numbers tell a concerning story for the makers.
Baby Girl Box Office Collection Day 8
As we entered the second Friday (Day 8) on January 30, 2026, Baby Girl could only manage to collect around ₹0.10 crore according to early trade estimates. This marks yet another drop from an already declining trend that started after the opening weekend.
The film opened with a modest ₹0.75 crore on Day 1, and while it showed some promise during the weekend with collections reaching ₹1.00 crore on Sunday, the weekdays have been brutal. The Monday crash saw collections fall to ₹0.54 crore, and things only got worse from there.

What’s Going Wrong?
The occupancy numbers are telling the real story here. On Day 8, Baby Girl managed only 7-9% average occupancy across major markets like Kerala and Bengaluru. For a film starring a popular actor like Nivin Pauly, these are disappointing figures.
The biggest challenge? Border 2. The massive patriotic action drama has taken over multiplexes and single screens alike, leaving very little breathing room for smaller regional films. Baby Girl is finding it nearly impossible to compete for screens and audience attention against such a juggernaut.

Can Baby Girl Recover?
With collections dropping below ₹0.15 crore on most weekdays and the second Friday bringing in just ₹0.10 crore, the road ahead looks extremely challenging. The film needed strong word-of-mouth to sustain, but that doesn’t seem to have materialized.
Unless there’s a miraculous turnaround this weekend, Baby Girl might struggle to even cross the ₹5 crore mark in its full theatrical run. For Nivin Pauly fans, this is definitely not the box office performance they were hoping for.
