Film | Cast | Plusses | Minusses | Verdict |
Ferrari Ki Sawaari | Sharman Joshi, Boman Irani, Ritwik Sahore, Paresh Rawal, Vidya Balan [sp. app.], Seema Pahwa, Satyadeep Misra, Aakash Dabhade, Deepak Shirke, Nilesh Divekar, Vijay Nikam | The father-son bonding, emotional moments, bravura performances | A shorter duration would've worked wonders | Started on a slow note, but grew with each passing day. Friday [Rs 3.04 cr] was decent, with the business picking up towards evening/night shows, while Saturday [4.50 cr] demonstrated that the word of mouth was extremely positive and hence the upward trend in business. But the biggest turnaround came on Sunday [Rs 6.37 cr], with metros and mini-metros giving the film the real push. The opening weekend total stands at Rs 13.91 cr nett, which, looking at its meager 20% to 30% start on Friday morning, is simply remarkable |
Rowdy Rathore | Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha, Nassar, Mushtaq Khan, Paresh Ganatra, Yashpal Sharma, Gurdeep Kohli, Anant Jog, Darshan Jariwala | Vintage masala movie that's aimed at the masses | Pacing drops occasionally | Is extraordinary. Seems undeterred by the onslaught of new releases every week. Collects Rs 9.65 cr in Weekend 3, taking the total to Rs 124.15 cr nett. Breakup:- Fri 2.25 cr, Sat 2.90 cr, Sun 4.50 cr. Blockbuster |
Shanghai | Emraan Hashmi, Abhay Deol, Kalki, Prosenjit Chatterjee, Farooque Sheikh, Pitobash, Supriya Pathak, Anant Jog, Tillotama Shome | A brilliant political thriller | Caters to a niche audience | Found it difficult to sustain in Weekend 2. Its performance, even at hi-end multiplexes, which patronized the film in its opening weekend, was below the mark. Collected Rs 3 cr in Weekend 2, taking the 10-day total to Rs 20.50 cr nett. While the investment may be recovered due to the sale of Satellite rights, Music rights and pre-sales prior to its release, the theatrical business is definitely disappointing. |
