GABBAR IS BACK Finishes Week One With Good Numbers
Bollywood films have disappointed and no big films made impact in last 6 months except ''PK''. This year not a single mainstream masala Bollywood film worked and to make situation worse Hollywood biggies ''Fast & Furious 7'' and ''Avengers Age Of Ultron'' over-performed. Now flow of big Bollywood releases started with Akshay Kumar starrer ''Gabbar Is Back'' which has scored fairly good week one.
''Gabbar Is Back'' opened in 3000 screens and this kind of release coupled with holiday on Friday means that film should cross 10 cr nett mark bare minimum. Film had very good weekend of 39.50 cr nett approx and then film performed well on weekdays too. Film collected 59.86 cr nett in week one which was better than week one figure of ''Baby''.
Film managed to hold on good number of screens in week two as new release ''Piku'' was multiplex centric and ''Kuch Kuch Locha Hai'' did not have much hope. ''Gabbar Is Back'' dropped by 75% from holiday aided Friday which is good trend. Film collected 2.80 cr nett on 2nd Friday and now good jumps in next two days can take it close to 13 cr nett weekend which means healthy 20 cr nett plus week one the card.
Film has crossed 62.66 cr nett in 8 days Marathi film ''Timepass 2'' took away at least 5 cr nett from ''Gabbar Is Back''. Still good 2nd week can take it close to 85-90 cr nett lifetime. Film collected 12 .50 cr over week one in overseas which was almost similar to Akshay Kumar starrers like ''Holiday'' and ''Entertainment''.
