The end of the year saw a disappointment in the form of B.R. Films’ Baabul which is poor business so soon after its release. In its third week, it has fallen flat many places. Kabir Khan’s Kabul Express is picking up and is doing good business at the multiplexes. Hrithik’s magic and hot babes continue to draw crowds into the theatres as Dhoom 2 is still going strong. Vivaah is steady and living unto its super hit tag. Last week’s release Aryan is a loser at the Box Office.
The top 5 films this weekend are:
• Kabul Express: The thought-provoking and stimulating movie has found a niche market rather than catering to a mass audience. The film is doing descent business at the multiplexes as its going well with the elite and thinking brains. It has sunk at many centres and the single-screen theatres. It has earned Rs. 5,10,260 Avg/print this week.
• Dhoom 2: Can’t beat this one! The 2006 record-breaker continues to be a money-spinner and is the biggest opener for any of the Yash Raj Films. The breath-taking stunts and oozing sensuality in the movie has caught the entire nation in a frenzy and the film is doing great business even after its fourth week at the B.O. It has already earned Rs. 2,58,513avg/ print this week.
• Baabul: The lacklustre film is personification of “old wine in new bottle” and fails to create any waves at the Box office. The film is fizzing in its second week itself. The Ravi Chopra directed has earned Rs.1,77,807 avg/print this week.
• Vivaah: The Rajshri production is slowly nudging up to be the best from Sooraj Barjatya as it is doing good business even after 6 weeks of its release. It has also been declared a blockbuster in the state of Bihar. It has earned Rs. 90, 079 avg/print this week.
• Aryan: Last week’s release has fallen flat at the box office and has been declared a flop in its first week itself . Sohail Khan and Sneha Ullal starrer was severely hampered by the film’s delay. The movie earned a meagre Rs. 70,880 avg/print in its first week.
