BABY Had Average Day One
After below par ''Alone'' and disastrous ''Tevar'', 2015 will see first big release in form of Akshay Kumar starrer ''Baby''. Sonam Kapoor starrer ''Dolly Ki Doli'' will also try to en-cash Republic Day holiday aided weekend.
''Baby'' has got some rare glowing reviews and that is why film has opened to solid occupancy in metros and urban multiplexes. But due to title and urban look, film is rather slow in Gujarat, Bihar, CI and UP. Film was slow to start on Friday morning which is the case with most of the releases these days.
Film never grew beyond a level in smaller towns and only metros contributed to major chunk of collection. Film collected 9.30 cr nett on day one as per producers T Series and that is just average total. Film has taken a superb start on day two and it seems that good jump on the card.
Film should jump big today in the region of 25-30 % easily as there is extended holiday weekend. As per early trends, film should touch 12.50 -13 cr nett today and that will put it on the way to a great weekend.
