MUMBAI: With five new releases hitting the box-office last week, the Shahid and Kareena-starrer Jab We Met was the show stopper with a fairly good opening.
The film opened to a 70% response in Delhi and Punjab while it was 50-60% in other parts. Mumbai garnered 70% occupancy by Friday evening (27 October). Trade analysts pointed out that the film should emerge as a hit, with the film performing consistently across the country.
In Punjab and Delhi, the film did exceptionally well due to the local flavour and is poised to pick in the week. The other three movies, Bal Ganesh, Mumbai Salsa and No Smoking were damp squibs at the box-office with minuscule openings of 5-10%, No Smoking performed relatively better with 15-20%.
The one-week-old Hollywood flick Speed had a poor showing and has managed to muster business of Rs 1 crore business till date. Bhool Bhulaiyaa, in its second week, managed to keep its innings going with business of Rs 14 crore so far, and will emerge as a super hit if it manages to sustain itself in week three as well.
Meanwhile, Yashraj’s Laaga Chunari Mein Daag has fallen drastically in its second week. The film managed business of Rs 5 crore in its second week. Till date, the movie has made a total net gross collection of about Rs 18 crore.
