BO report: BBD continues its steady run, Freaky Ali struggles at the ticket-window
The Katrina Kaif-Sidharth Malhotra starrer Baar Baar Dekho's collections on Sunday look very similar to that on Friday and it is clear that the film has dropped from its Saturday business. In the first weekend, BBD earned INR 21 Crore at the box-office.
On Friday the film minted INR 6.75 Crore, INR 7 Crore on Saturday and INR 6.75 on Sunday. There is a holiday on Monday for Bakri Eid so that can hold up collections a little better than normal but it will be just for one day and normal pattern will be resumed after. BBD has a title suggesting repeat viewings but the majority of the paying public seems to have let go after two days!
On the other hand, the Nawazuddin Siddiqui's Freaky Ali grossed INR 7.25 Crore in its first weekend. The film managed some decent growth on Saturday but Sunday could not do too much. The collections are better than other of his films like Manjhi - Tha Mountain Man (INR 6.17 Crore) and Raman Raghav (INR 3.84 Crore). On Friday, Freaky Ali earned INR 1.75 Crore on Friday, INR 2.5 Crore on Saturday and INR 3 Crore on Sunday. With a holiday on Monday on the account of Bakri Eid, it's likely the collections will jump in parts of some circuits.
