All New Releases Take A Dull Start, HATE STORY 2 Leads The Pack

''Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania'' is set to dominate in 2nd week too as all new releases have almost zilch expectations at box office. HSKD is holding close to 1000 screens in week two which is higher than screen count of new releases.

''Hate Story 2'' was expected to lead among new releases and that is what happened. Film has taken an opening around 10% in morning shows and film is little better in central India and B & C centers. Film will grow from evening onwards but film will still struggle to post decent numbers. As per early trends, film should come close to 2 cr nett on day one.

''Pizza'' has also taken a poor start of 8-10% and film has no star appeal and chartbuster songs. Film will only appeal to niche audience and that is why film should jump from evening onwards. But film needs big jumps and even 1.50 cr nett day one will be great.

''Amit Sahni Ki List'' is worse of all and will find tough to register at box office.
