Sonakshi Sinha’s action entertainer has beaten the opening week collection of female-centric movies like Mardaani (23 crores), NH 10 (20.5 crores) and Jai Gangaajal (25.2 crores). However, it failed to beat the opening week collection of Neerja (35 crores).
The reviews and WOM aren’t positive and it is certainly hurting the movie at the Box Office. The biggest relief for the makers is that the movie has already recovered around 50% of its budget through satellite and music rights. The movie just need 40 crores to be an average grosser.
