The Anup Bhandari-directed film did score approx. 4.7 crores gross (4 cr. net) for all languages, including 2.60 crores gross in Karnataka state. It will reach the 50 crores mark in the state today.
The drop on the first Monday was expected, but makers surely haven't thought it would be over 70% drop from Sunday. The film needs to hold on to the range of Monday's collection to have a good opening week.
Meanwhile, the Hindi version of the film is putting on a decent show, despite the massive drop. It scored approx. 70 lakh on Monday, pushing the total net collection for the dubbed Hindi version to over 6.60 crores in 5 days. Overall, the movie has so far scored 57.70 crores net (68.2 cr. gross) so far domestically.
Meanwhile, the Bollywood movie, Ek Villain Returns, too faced the heat of the first Monday and witnessed a drop of over 66% for 3.02 crores net. The total net collection now stands at 26.56 crores in 4 days.
The Mohit Suri-directed film is reasonably doing well in mass centers while metro cities remain dull. The movie would have liked a drop under 50% which obviously did not happen. The first week is likely to finish with 32 crores (+/-).
EVR showed a better trend in the opening weekend than most recent Bollywood movies. It will love to carry the same momentum in the second weekend as well as there is no new film releasing this coming Friday. A lifetime collection of around 50 crores net would be considered a good result for the film.
Stay tuned...
