    Amitabh Bachchan starrer ‘Bhootnath Returns’ rakes in Rs 18.2 cr at the BO

    MUMBAI: Bhootnath Returns, the sequel to the Amitabh Bachchan starrer Bhootnath (2008), opened to a weak response on Friday but consolidated a bit on Saturday and very well on Sunday to collect Rs 18.2 crore for its opening weekend. The film should sustain today as well because of Ambedkar Jayanti holiday and, in parts for Baisakhi as well.

     

    Main Tera Hero starring Varun Dhawan and Ileana D’Cruz is fair in its first week. The film has managed to collect Rs 36.2 crore.

     

    Youngistan has added Rs 72 lakh in its second week to take its two tally to Rs 5.97 crore. The figure just goes onto show that it is a very poor performer.

     

    Jal has collected about Rs50 lakh in its first week.

     

    Ragini MMS2 has added Rs 1.1 crore in its third week taking its three week total to Rs 46.85 crore.

     

    Queen continues its excellent run at the box office. The film has collected Rs 2.35 crore in its fifth week taking its five week total to Rs 56.45 crore.

    The Dhawan’s strong run at the box office

    MUMBAI: Father-son combination of director David and actor Varun Dhavan has given a fair entertainer in Main Tera Hero, a movie worth watching after a gap since Queen. Also, the opposition in the form of Jal lacked commercial approach. While Main Tera Hero did not get a great opening but the word of mouth has gone in its favour. The film collected Rs 21.5 crore over the weekend, getting better each day. The collections could have been better still, were it not for the T20 World Cup matches on Friday and Sunday involving India.

     

     Jal started off badly with ‘No audience No show tags’ at the cinemas. Youngistaan has struggled to collect Rs 5.3 crore in its first week.

     

    While, O Teri has been poor all the way with Rs 3.2 crore to show for its first week, Dishkiyaon has collected Rs 5.25 crore in its first week.

     

    Sunny Leone starrer Ragini MMS2 has held on well in its second week to collect Rs 8.75 crore to take its two week collections to Rs 45.85 crore.

     

    Queen continues its strong hold on the box office by adding Rs 5.6 crore in its fourth week thus taking its four week tally to Rs 54.1 crore.
