‘Yaariyan’ fares well, ‘Dedh Ishqiya’ struggles at the box-office

MUMBAI: Music has saved the day for Yaariyan as the film, despite mixed reactions, has had a very good opening weekend collections. The film has managed to collect Rs 16.5 crore.

 

Dedh Ishqiya opened slow but improved gradually on Saturday and Sunday but further improvement in collections will be needed to make the film a worthwhile investment. The sequel to Ishqiya has collected about Rs 11.3 crore in its opening weekend. The festival of Lohri today may affect collections for a day. 

 

Mr Joe B. Carvalho is a poor film that meets with poor fate; the film ends its week one with a meager Rs 3.15 crore.

 

Sholay 3-D collections dipped further during the week to end its first week with a figure of Rs 8.3 crore.

 

Dhoom 3 continues to be on a record setting spree having added Rs 19.73 crore in its third week in its Hindi version and collecting another Rs 2.76 crore for the fourth weekend thus taking its total for Hindi to Rs 267.74 crore for 24 days and with the addition of TnT versions, the film has collected Rs 280.49 crore.
