MOHENJO DARO Is A Huge Flop
Box office saw a clash which had two contrasting films. Akshay Kumar starrer ''Rustom'' and Hrithik Roshan starrer ''Mohenjodaro'' are fighting out at box office and as expected by pre release buzz, Hrithik Roshan starrer proved to be a disaster.
''Mohenjodaro'' was ahead in few single screens but overall it was poor in multiplexes and urban areas where it should have scored. Despite 2600 plus screens, it managed almost half numbers than other release ''Rustom''. Film collected around 8.87 cr nett on day one which was exactly what we predicted. Film grew marginally on 2nd day and collected 9.60 cr nett. Film added 12.08 cr nett on Sunday which as again very slim growth. Film had weekend total of 30.54 cr nett. Film collected 10.27 cr nett on Monday which was poor total considering national holiday.
Then inevitable happened on Tuesday as film dropped big with only 3.16 cr nett figure which was more than 75% drop. Film further dropped on Wednesday with 2.96 cr nett figure followed by 4.24 cr nett on Sunday as growth came due to Rakhi holiday.
Film collected 51.18 cr nett in 1st week which was poor and ranks among worst performer films of Hrithik ever. Film lost huge number of screens to new releases and that is why came crashing down on 2nd Friday. Film added 1.05 cr nett on 2nd Friday, 1.28 cr nett on 2nd Saturday and 1.55 cr nett on 2nd Sunday. Film added 3.88 cr nett in 2nd weekend which was poor. Film collected 62 lakhs nett, 59 lakhs nett, 68 lakhs nett and 47 lakhs nett on weekdays. Film added poor 6.24 cr nett in 2nd week.
Film has 2-week total of 57.42 cr nett which is disastrous. Film will wrap up around 59 cr nett lifetime total which is less than this actor-director duo''s ''Jodha Akbar''. Film collected 1.02 million $ (6.20 cr) on opening day in overseas with UAE-GCC was the best market for the film. Film added 20 cr in overseas over weekend, 24.13 cr (3.6 million $) over week one, 26.19 cr (3.9 million $) in 10 days and 28.22 cr (4.2 million $) in 2 weeks. It will have lifetime worldwide share of 40 cr and that is disastrous.
