It seems like the blessings of Lord Shiva and Bollywood stars have worked for Tiger Shroff, who made his acting debut with "Heropanti". The romantic actioner saw a huge growth on third day of its release and collected over Rs.21 crore, says an expert.

"'Heropanti' (earned) Friday - Rs.6.63 crore, Saturday - Rs.6.42 crore, Sunday - Rs.8.28 crore. Total: Rs.21.33 (crore) nett. India business. Huge growth on Sunday. Excellent," trade analyst Taran Adarsh posted on Twitter Monday.

Tiger's dancing skills and action stunts were talk of the town much before the Sabbir Khan directorial released May 23.

Presented by UTV Motion Pictures and Nadiadwala Grandsons Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the team even threw a success party Sunday.

The 24-year-old son of actor Jackie Shroff, a devotee of Lord Shiva, was also said to visit Babulnath temple in Mumbai Monday.

"Heropanti" served as the launch pad for Kriti Sanon too.
