Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan\u2019s big-budget film, Thugs of Hindostan, is in free fall at the box office. The film cobbled together just Rs 1.25 crore on its ninth day of release. Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, Thugs of Hindostan\u2019s total box office collections in India now stand at Rs 141 crore, disastrous for a film that reportedly cost Rs 300 crore.<\/p>\n
Thugs opened to a record-breaking Rs 50 crore on its first day, but the numbers proved to be front-loaded. The films dropped like an anchor over the next week. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh compiled the film\u2019s day-to-day business on Twitter. The film dropped to Rs 28.25 crore on its second day, and Rs 22 crore on day 3. Taran wrote that 37% of the film\u2019s first week collections came on day one.<\/p>\n
Thugs has made Rs 56 crore in overseas markets, which Taran has described as disappointing. Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurrana\u2019s Badhaai Ho continued its fantastic run, crossing the Rs 120 crore mark.<\/p>\n
This weekend\u2019s new releases, Pihu, opened to Rs 45 lakhs on day one, with Taran anticipating an increase in numbers thanks to positive word of mouth. The Hindustan Times review gave director Vinod Kapri\u2019s film 1.5 stars out of five and called it a \u2018silly, sadistic\u2019 film.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
