The response to BHOOTHNATH has been mixed in the international markets. While the film has fared quite well in the U.S., it has failed to cut ice in U.K. However, the reports are positive and Eros, its distributors, are hopeful that the business should remain steady in the second weekend. Meanwhile, last week's MR. WHITE MR. BLACK has crashed completely in U.K.
