Bang Bang has failed to show any major growth in business on Sunday, even though the overall total for the weekend is the second best of the year after Salman Khan’s Kick.
The Hrithik Roshan starrer has collected around 21-22 crore on Sunday to take its 4-day weekend total to Rs 94.13 crore. The film lost around 10-12 crore in its first weekend to Shahid Kapoor’s Haider, without which Bang Bang would have probably crossed the 100 crore mark in 4 days.
The problem for Bang Bang isn’t the collections but the way it has trended. The business on Sunday is lower than both Thursday and Friday, which isn’t a good sign.
Monday (today) is a holiday in parts of the country, so the film should cross the 100 crore mark. Tuesday could well decide the fate of Siddharth Anand’s ambitious and expensive action film.
A few individual distributors in Bihar and Rajasthan are almost certain to lose money on the film, as the weekend business was way lower in these circuits compared to the price that was paid. Having said that, the kind of money that distributors pay for big films these days, even mega-blockbusters like Kick just about managed to break-even in a few circuits.
An exhibitor we spoke to, didn’t mince words when he said “This is a weak period for business due to the upcoming Diwali and Navratri. None of the traders and workers are free from work to watch films, they are working overtime. Students have exams. The new breed of distributors and exhibitors dont understand this. Considering all these factors, Bang Bang is doing good business”
