Hardly anyone would have imagined such a plight of films at the box office. After the Corona epidemic, when films like ‘Jawaan’, ‘Pathan’ and ‘Shaitan’ brought the audience back to the theatres, the month of April has been very bad. At present, films from Ajay Devgan to Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff and Vidya Balan are available in theatres, but the situation is that on Wednesday, four films together have not done a business of even Rs 2 crore. Chairs in theaters are lying empty, shows are getting cancelled, even many single screen theaters have been closed for a few days. ‘Maidan’ and ‘Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan’ released on the occasion of Eid, all the preparations are underway. And despite the noise, it has become a disaster. According to the report of sacnilk, on Wednesday, the 14th day of its release, while ‘Maidan’ has done a business of only Rs 75 lakh in the country, ‘Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan’ has earned Rs 80 lakh.
BMCM has earned 57 crores, ‘Maidan’ has earned 37 crores
The condition of ‘Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan’ made under the direction of Ali Abbas Zafar is the worst. Made with a budget of Rs 350 crore, this film has collected a net of only Rs 57.65 crore at the Indian box office in 14 days. Whereas ‘Maidan’, made under the direction of Amit Sharma, has a budget of Rs 100 crore and has earned Rs 37.80 crore in 14 days.
After Lok Sabha elections and IPL, now the weather is bad
Both these films have become disasters. The situation is that in the shows of both the films, the audience is visible only on 8-9 chairs out of 100. Whereas due to lack of audience many shows had to be cancelled. Both these films had a chance to take advantage of the Eid holiday and then Ram Navami holiday. But since the opening day, his back has been so broken that it is impossible for him to even stand up. On one hand, films are not able to please the audience, on the other hand, due to rising weather temperature, Lok Sabha elections 2024 and IPL matches, similar slowdown at the ticket window is expected to continue in the future.
The condition of ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’ and LSD2 is even worse
Apart from these two big films, the condition of Vidya Balan-Prateek Gandhi’s ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’ and Dibakar Banerjee’s ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2’, released on Friday, is even worse. While ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’ has earned Rs 28 lakh on the sixth day on Wednesday, LSD2 has made a business of Rs 5 lakh.
What will happen to Ayush Sharma’s ‘Ruslaan’?
While ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’, directed by Shirsha Guha Thakurta, has collected a net collection of Rs 3.17 crore in six days after its release, ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2’ has done a total business of only Rs 86 lakh. In this period of recession, Ayush Sharma’s ‘Ruslaan’ is being released on Friday. As things stand, the fate of this film also does not seem to be very good.
