Entertainment Box Office Collections: Could still emerge a success!

Akshay Kumar’s Entertainment has collected Rs 7 crore on Monday, which is the 4th highest Monday collections of 2014 behind films like Kick (14.41 cr), Jai Ho (9.46 cr) and Holiday: A Solider Is Never Off Duty (7.89 cr).

In the last few years, Akshay films, apart from OMG: Oh My God and Special 26, have generally failed to hold up well on its first weekday. 2014 has been different. His films have struggled to open well, but the Monday-drops have been lower than most other films this year.

However, quite a films in the last few months that have held up well on Monday but have shown significant drop in business on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Like we mentioned in our Saturday report, if Entertainment manages to hold up above the 5.5 crore mark over the next 3 days, it will still get a decent number of shows this weekend when Singham Returns releases in theatres. The word-of-mouth is good and the family audience, who usually tend to avoid violent action films, might opt for Entertainment over a film like Singham Returns.

Entertainment is likely to collect 60-61 crore in its first week at the domestic box office. Second weekend business will decide its fate. With one open week or a better release date, Entertainment had the potential to be a much bigger success.

  • Don’t think so indicine.. it won’t go beyond 70cr which means below average box office verdict so it will still b a failure.not even a miracle can make it go beyond 100cr and make it a hit.entertainment 2nd weekend will b similar to humshakals.

  • Yes, WOM is good. If it had better music, promotion and release time, it might have crossed 100 crores. Judging by the WOM and drop, I don’t think it will be a flop. An average, above average and hit status are on the cards depending upon its performance in 2nd week.

  • it’s a nice movie…it should be a hit at least..
    I loved the acting of prakash raj…
    and akshay as usual superb in comic role…
    Johnny Johnny yes papa
    entertainment is a hit …yes papa

  • @nipun that’s good now ur respecting Salman khan.
    we all Salman khan fans waiting for bang bang.
    all the best hrithik from the fan of Salman and aamir.

  • Holiday with similar first 4 days collection became a hit bcz it managed steadiness through the 1st week and then pulled off impressive 2nd and 3rd week figures.
    But a crap like entertainment that has just avg wom won’t b able to trend so well even if it had zero competition in 2nd week.
    So entertainment is a failure and akki will loose his 6th spot this independence day

  • thank God at least movie will not be flop. akki we all love u.
    verdict for entertainment is average or above.
    shaukeen is releasing on 7 Nov. which is not akki film.
    Akshay Kumar is doing only extended guest appearance.
    akki much awaited movie is releasing on 23rd January.
    next year waiting for GABBAR.

  • Monday was very good…now 2nd weekend will decide its fate,still i think 80crs lifetime is possible…

    @Arjun kapoor2
    Don’t compare it with humshakals,humshakals was carrying bad WOM and severe negativity around it,jokes were created on it..and after ek villain,hardly anyone watched it…

  • @Indicine I request u to publish some articles regarding fanny,tevar,dawaat and dil dhadakne do as lot if newz r coming about those films but u hv to unfortunately I hv to read it in other websites and not in my fav website indicine

  • Really happy to know that ajay devgn who is definitely the most underrated superstar will finally get his due with singham returns which will surely bcm an epic blockbuster

  • KHILADI rocks!!!! Entertainment is doing great on nonholiday and competition from kick and singham returns, if it was jai ho or talaash or don 2 , lifetime would be 40 cr.

  • The end of akshay kumar has begin.except warrior starring sid I don’t see any of akki film to bxm a big hit.neeraj pandey’s baby will b a very gd film but since it will release after craps like gabbar,entertainment and singh is bling it won’t go beyond hit status.
    Akki fans sholuld thank youngiataan for somehow helping akki’s career from drowning by letting sid do a film with akki.

  • I hv never seen a more suicidal superstar in my life than akshay.he deliberately punishes himself by following up his every gd hit film with a crap-blockbuster was followed by crap joker,superb omg was followed by crap k786,entertaining s26 was followed by ouatimd and boss and nw hit holiday has been followed by craptainment

  • sorry guys but i did not find it entertaining….
    only johny lever’s HABIBULLAH joke was funny…
    but the movie was below average

  • Holiday is still best movie of the year from superstars movies….
    It really deserve more than kick..
    Its entertainment also nice comedy genre movie after long time..
    @Arjun, everytime 100cr isnt so imp, queen, s26, omg, znmd, hawa hawaai, gangs of wasseypur, pst, guzaarish, wasnt 100cr movies but dis movies won hearts of billions…

  • Still it will flop.Singham returns have booked all Single screens which Entertainment is performing well.
    Producers committed suicide when they chose Aug 8

  • I don’t think it will become success because the name-sake fans like Babaji ka Thullu, jo bokte toh Akki ki Naam Pe, Magar Woh Theatre Mein Film Jaakar Nahin Dekhte….Better luck, next time, Akki, a true hardworking guy!

  • @thullu tell ur akki to learn from my youngistaan as we never sign film by just looking at the pay cheque or relationship with producer and director

  • @arjun kapoor
    Entertainment’s WOM is better than following films:

    2 states(6.12crs monday,despite better opening)

    Ek villain(7.83crs monday,dropped from 17.5crs sunday)

    Humpty Sharma (5.85crs monday)

  • Entertainment was a sureshot 100crs had the film been released on a better date..lifetime could have been comparable to 2 states n ek villain…
    Poor thinking by producers!!!

  • My youngistaan last 3 mvz hv scored 5.8 to 7cr 4th day from 2200 to 2700 screens and here v hv our superstar akki scoring similar no. From 2900-3300 screens!

  • Entertainment ruling the BO. Weekend collections even lower than Humshakals, HSKD, Gunday, 2 States & Ek Villain. Blessed are Akshay & his fans.

  • i want to ask y hny trailer is releasing
    on 14? Y not 15 aug?
    What so special on 14 for srk? well known person can get dis… Wake
    up INDIAN srkians

  • 2 big negatives for Entertainment are
    1)Bad release date
    2)Dog is hero with just 1 dialogue ‘bhow bhow’ and Akshay kumar is supporting actor with many dialogues.
