Last week's release, Bell Bottom starring Akshay Kumar and Vaani Kapoor has slowed down further at the box-office. The film has collected in the range of Rs. 80 to 90 lakhs on the ninth day, taking the total collection around Rs. 19.50 crore mark. The Akshay Kumar film stayed weak on the weekdays, and one expected it to record a better trend at the box-office. It is now looking at lifetime collections around the Rs. 30 crore mark.
While Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Punjabi industries have already seen some blockbusters, the wait for a Bollywood film that brings back the audience to the cinema halls continues.
