As expected, ROCKSTAR embarked on a solid start at multiplexes of almost all major centres. At places, the opening was nearly 100%, while the opening numbers at several stations were in 70% to 80% range. In fact, the strong opening didn't come as a surprise since the film boasts of the Imtiaz Ali - Ranbir Kapoor - A.R. Rahman combo. However, the response at single screens was not strong, with several screens opening to 40% to 50% range.
ROCKSTAR is expected to gross impressive figures on Day 1 thanks to the contribution from plexes. However, the weekend numbers will mirror where the film stands, since the word of mouth is extremely mixed.
