Main Tera Hero opened to an occupancy of around 40% in India. The film, which released alongside Captain America: The Winter Soldier, led in the morning shows in places like Rajasthan, Gujarat and CI while lost out to it in multiplexes of Kolkata, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai and Mumbai. The film saw a major setback during evening shows in the first day of its release owing to the semi-final match between India and South-Africa collecting ₹20 crore (US$2.6 million). The film collected another ₹27.9 crore (US$3.7 million) on the second day of its theatrical release—taking its two-day total to ₹50 crore (US$6.6 million)—showing a considerable growth of 80%, which was expected considering the loss on its first day to the cricket match. On the third day it collected ₹75 million (US$980,000)—₹7.75 crore (US$1.0 million) to take its weekend total to ₹40 crore (US$5.2 million)—₹40.3 crore (US$5.3 million) which though "high" by normal standards were understandable because of the cricket matches affecting its growth. On its first Monday it had a collection of around ₹37.5 crore (US$4.9 million)—₹43.6 crore (US$5.7 million). On the fifth day of its theatrical release there was a growth of 15% courtesy a holiday, another ₹2.75 crore (US$360,000) on the next day pushed the film's six-day total to ₹30.8 crore (US$4.0 million). Overall the film had a decent first week collecting ₹33.5 crore (US$4.4 million) domestically. The film with the fourth highest first week total of the year—after Jai Ho, Gunday and Ragini MMS 2—performed best in circuits like CP Berar, Nizam and Andhra Pradesh, where it collected an estimated ₹22.1 crore (US$2.9 million) plus and above all in Gujarat with ₹40 crore (US$5.2 million). Suffering a heavy drop of 75% the film collected ₹1.5 crore (US$200,000) on its eighth day. The film in all collected ₹12.8 crore (US$1.7 million) in its second week managing a two-week total of ₹46.3 crore (US$6.1 million) with best collections from Mumbai, Rajasthan and CP Berar circuits. From the Mumbai circuit—comprising the Gujarat-Saurashtra belts—alone it collected ₹18 crore (US$2.4 million). It was declared a "Semi Hit" by Box Office India.
