Overseas Box Office: Weak business for all Bollywood flicks
Talking about Film Trade:
There has not been seen any major release last week. It’s simply due to the strike happening in India. This affected the international market as well. The last big release was Kukunoor’s ‘8X10 Tasveer’, which emerged a big disaster in international circuits like in India.
