Major disappointment!

By Bollywood Hungama -


 

KHATTA MEETHA has emerged a major disappointment in key international markets. Post NAMASTEY LONDON, Akshay Kumar's movies have opened to a fantastic response in the two major markets - U.K. and U.S.A. But KHATTA MEETHA, shockingly, is Akshay's lowest opener [post NAMASTEY LONDON] in U.K. as well as U.S.A. [see chart below]. In fact, the screen avaerage is lower than TASHAN and CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA too, which are considered box-office disasters. The film has recorded below average collections in Australia too… Punjabi film MEL KARADE RABBA is faring very well in Australia and is steady in U.K.

Major disappointment!

 

Weekend: July 23 - 25, 2010.
