Critics thrash Joker, washout at the box office

After Players, Tezz and Department, Joker is likely to be the 4th major disaster of the year. The film is an absolute washout on Day 1. The morning shows, as we reported earlier, were as low as 10-15% at places. Infact, a few exhibitors have reported that some shows were cancelled due to very low occupancy.

The film picked up slightly for the noon/evening shows, but the collections remained low. The mass centres have performed slightly better due to the presence of Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha.

The biggest cause of worry though, is the negative word-of-mouth. The critics have absolutely thrashed the film. On our review scale – we currently have 11 critic reviews – not a single positive review, 2 average and 9 negative.

The writing is on the wall for Joker. The target audience – children and family – is the only glimmer of hope as they venture out to watch films on Saturday and Sundays.

Joker is also likely to be the first commercial failure for Sonakshi Sinha, whose first two films Dabangg and Rowdy Rathore were ‘Blockbusters’.

    Bacho……..phele SRK ko bolo Akshay ka Record tode phir baat karna…….

  • marz wat abt india u admit srk small infront of akki in india…rowdy rathore released in less screens thn bra.1

  • @ankur,yes i have sir, we believe it will break records just like how salman believes.
    and anyway its a remake movie not a original movie okay. Talk about akki’s original movies with srk’s original movies and then tell.

  • @rowdy, why shold i admit, the public knows whose the best, even akki himself admitted srk is the best so need to bark like dogs.

  • Check ndtv’s list all time best actors list, u will get to understand. So stop comparing that joker with srk :P

  • @ROWDY, DON’T LIKE A BABY.

    Man srsly all the haters compare srk with amitabh, rajini iand etc to pull him down.

    But remember the players may change but the game does not. Here srk is the game, he never got changed from his position. But the players did. Sometimes he is compared with aamir, salman, amitabh etc.

  • Kya baat h ankur ek hi commant me srk fan ki hawa nikal di….joker kase bhi ho par ra1 se jayda bad nahi ho sakti…bcoz joker ne ppl ki diwali to garab nahi ki…

  • @marz. I have already said it before i have no enmity with any one, its just i hate srk as a actor, as a person. And coming to shirish do you know he has bigger biceps than srk and that he is physically more stronger and powerful than your haklu srk. If there was to be any physical fight or wrestling b/w them then shirish tere srk ko utta utta ke itna martha, itna pittha ki srk would have had forgotten how to stammer like a goat . fortunately srk was lucky, that shirish did not retaliate, otherwise “srk kada bhi ho jatha tho log bolthe wah kya dance kar raha hei”. And congratulations You have officially become as arrogant,as stupid, as idiotic, as foolish as you srk. Nice following. Keep it up.

  • @rowdy, so aaj tere hava nikal gaayi joker ki collection dekh kar. Lol!! I still can’t stop laughing srsly, i mean u said that it will break ett’s record lol first of all it could not even break tezz’s opening record. Now i wonder if can even break tezz’s record life time record. Its not only me making jokes here about the movie, the whole public in india is making jokes on this movie, better check joker’s public review.
    I am sorry for akshay, hope he comes back well with khiladi.

  • @NVS,lol at ur stupid pathetic comments, Idiot having more biceps dosen’t mean that he can be stronger than anyone. And now u can see the effect of srk’s big slap right in front of ur face.
    Even sirish had to say sorry to king khan. So all the biceps and that body is nothing.
    And i don’t care what u say about me. The people here are insulting the one who has been more arrogant than me and that guy is rowdy.
    So u better go to mental hospital and fix ur brains.

  • abey khan’s ke chamcho.pehle joker dekho phir comment karna.agar film dekhte to aisi jhuthi comments nahi karte.kab sudhroge?

  • @marz. Your silly comments are really making me feel sick and irritating just like your srk’s acting. You better need to consult a mental specialist, as day by day your brain is becoming more useless and your thoughts more ridiculous. I have a good advice for u, please stop watching srk’s acting such that your brain returns to normalcy otherwise u have to be in mental hospital for all your life. So take care buddy.

  • @NVS, i don’t care about about what u say to me, Here every one knows u need to fix ur brain.
    MAN WHEN WILL I SRSLY QUIET ACTING LIKE SMARTY GUY WANNBE. U JUST A BIG HEAD WITH A PEA BRAIN WHICH IS FILLED WITH “GOBAR”. PLS STOP SHARING UR VIEWS AND THOUGHTS HERE. ITS DAME IRRITATING FOR ME AND OTHERS AS WELL. UR THOUGHTS ARE JUST LIKE THE WAY U FART HEAVILY WITH UR IRREGULAR SHAPED BUTTS.
    Take my advice, GET A LIFE LOOSER!!.

  • I just need correct something in scentence, its actually MAN WHEN WILL U SRSLY QUIET ACTING LIKE SMARTY GUY WANNBE (mistakes happens while typing). Not “MAN WHEN WILL I SRSLY QUIET ACTING LIKE SMARTY GUY WANNBE”

  • @marz. Oh some correction . Please lick and suck my irregular shaped butts, they are more tastier than anything u tasted in your life so far and i didnt know till now that u daily smell my butts when i far. That’s y ur so irritatingly ‘stinky’ like ur srk. So thank you for that.
