It was a dull week at the box office with 1921 being the only film which is still in the running. If it can continue to hold on day eight the way it has over the weekdays then it could turn out to be decent runner. The film grossed 11 crore nett apprx in its first week and lost around 50 lakhs on day one due to a late start at the main multiplexes.
Mukkabaaz is a poor fare as it grossed 6.75 crore nett in its first week. The weekend was very poor and the film fell further on the weekdays. The film got the 4 and 5 stars dished out to it but that is all free but when it comes to time and money no one was prepared to give the film any.
1921 found a paying audience which was more than double of Mukkabaaz with 11.25 lakh appx footfalls as compared to the 5.5 lakh of Mukkabaaz. Mukkabaaz was set in Bareilly but even there 1921 found a bigger audience..
Kaalakandi was even worse than Mukkabaaz as it emerged a huge disaster and grossed 4.50 crore nett in its first week. The film was to go straight to digital and not have a theatrical release which may actually been better for in terms of revenue. But as far as audience is concerned it would not have even found that on digital.
The first week daily business of 1921 is as follows.
Friday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 1,15,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 11,15,00,000 apprx
