Salman Khan’s latest release Veer is getting mixed response from audiences. While the movie has gotten off to a bumper start at single screen theatres, its run at multiplexes has been strictly average.
As reported, the movie’s first weekend collection is around Rs 19.50 crore approx, which means a fairly good business. On Friday it did Rs 7 crore business; Saturday saw a weak response but it managed Rs 5.25 crore while Sunday was remarkably good with Rs 7.25 crore business. By the end of its first week, the movie is expected to make around Rs 31-32 crore, which is quite a decent amount given all the negative reviews it has got from critics.
The movie might continue its successful run in North India thanks to single screen business and Sallu’s fan following which is huge in the Hindi belt. The movie is already being described as the first success of 2010 and if it does good business in second week it can easily emerge as the first hit of the year with Rs 30 crore-plus share. However, Shahid Kapoor starrer Chance Pe Dance witnessed a poor first week with business of merely Rs 8.50 crore approx. A sureshot flop.
Well, box office still favours 3 Idiots. The movie did a business of Rs 17.50 crore approx in its fourth weekend which takes the four-week business to Rs 183.50 crore approx; running to packed houses, the movie is not very far from the Rs 200 crore mark business.
This week’s releases are two interesting movies Ishqiya and Rann.
