AIRLIFT Jumps On Day Two''Airlift'' is big release of new year 2016. Film had interesting patriotic theme and has Akshay Kumar in lead. But film was facing competition at box office from successful sex comedy franchise ''Kya Kool Hain Hum 3''.
Film released today across 2600 screens in India and 68 screens in Middle East. On Friday film opened to 35% opening in India and multiplexes/urban centers are doing better on expected lines. What is heartening is that film has opened to better numbers than ''Baby'' which released last year in same week. Film collected 12.35 cr nett on day one.
Film has got good to very good reviews and that helped film from Friday evening onwards. Film started Saturday on good note and growth was across the board. Film collected 14.60 cr nett on Saturday with growth of 35%. Film has two day total of 26.95 cr nett and weekend will be 43 cr nett which is very healthy total. Film is set to emerge hit even if it can sustain decently on Monday as Republic Day holiday will give it further push. Like December clash, it seems one more time ''content and reviews win over old school entertainment''.
