Disastrous Weekend Business Of New Releases

This weekend is full of small films which is the case when week consists of only 6 days as two biggies will arrive next Thursday. There is almost no hope from any of the new released film.

Total screen count of the new films was close to 2500 but total collection remained in region of 5 cr nett over weekend which in itself a disgraceful achievement. All films are in no hope zone and at least 60 cr plus investment of industry will be swept away.

''Desi Kattey'' released in 1050 screens but even then film collected very poor total. Film remained below 60 lakhs nett on day one and dropped to 55 lakhs nett on day two which speaks about the volume of the failure of the film. Film added 60 lakhs nett on Sunday. Film collected 1.75 cr nett over weekend and will finish with 3 cr nett lifetime.

''''3 A.M.'''' released in 450 screens and still remained below 33 lakhs nett on day one despite not so bad content followed by poor 43 lakhs nett on day two. Though film grew over weekend with 49 lakhs nett on Sunday but overall weekend collection remained pathetic around 1.25 cr nett.

Rest of the new releases ''Chaarfutiya Chhokare'', ''Balwinder Singh Famous Ho Gayaa'', ''Mettric Paas'', ''Dear Vs Bear'' and ''Meinnu Ek Ladki Chahiye'' failed miserably. Except ''Balwinder Singh Famous Ho Gaya'' which collected 30 lakhs nett, rest fail to touch 10 lakhs nett over weekend. Epic disasters!
