GHAYAL ONCE AGAIN Had Fair Day One
Two diverse films ''Ghayal Once Again'' and ''Sanam Teri Kasam'' are releasing. Last three weeks have seen clash but except ''Airlift'' almost all films under performed. Sunny Deol used to be a force when first installment came in 1990 and now he is pale shadow of that persona.
''Ghayal Once Again'' had got average reviews and though its kind of solo release its opening was poor around 15%. Film should have opened to 25-30% because that could have given a chance over weekend. Film grew to 40% in evening shows and riding on good performance in UP, Bihar and central India, it managed to collect 7.20 cr nett on day one.
Film needs to grow over weekend in the range of 25% but that seems difficult even 10% growth looks tough considering genre and cast. Film has little support from urban centers and multiplexes and that will hurt it in long run.
