The weeks releases fail to work at BO, pundits pin hope on Dhoom 3
MUMBAI: Jackpot, Sachin Joshi’s third attempt at seeking recognition as a film actor, has come to naught. Released at a fair number of screens, the film has remained poor in collections as it has only managed 2.8 crore for its opening weekend. It will be tough to feed the cinema halls Monday onwards.
What The Fish makes its debut with cancelled shows due to no show by audience; an exercise in total loss of money and efforts.
R…. Rajkumar has a face saving first week thanks to its collections from single screens away from metros. The film has collected 41.3 crore in its first week with second week expected to gain some due to poor oppositions.
Club 60 has gone unnoticed.
Bullet Raja continued its poor run in its second week with figures of 2.55 crore taking its two week total to 32.3 crore.
Goliyon Ki Rasleela: Ram-Leela has added 2.85 crore in its fourth week taking its four week total to 103.15 crore.
Singh Saab The Great comes to the end of its run with a three week tally of 273 crore.
Krrish 3 has collected 55 lakh in its sixth week to take its six week total to 175.95 crore.
The exhibition trade pins its hopes on Dhoom 3 to end the year 2013 on a positive note as most films they had hopes from have failed to live up the trade’s expectations. Even the movie lovers are looking forward to this Aamir Khan-YRF offering.
