Although Total Dhamaal opened to  mostly negative reviews , its box office numbers tell a different story. The film has found its audience in families as well as kids. Single screens and multiplexes, especially across the tier-2 cities have been responsible for revenue generation. No hike in the ticket price is also an additional factor, according to trade analysts.

#TotalDhamaal has an edge over other mass entertainers... Families/kids are patronising it big time... No wonder, mass circuits/single screens + metros + plexes in Tier-2 cities are *collectively* putting up a strong total... Normal ticket rates [not hiked] are a plus.
