Ghanchakkar

Ghanchakkar may touch 40 crore mark

It was mentioned in this column last week that for Ghanchakkar to eventually come up trumps, a lot would depend on the weekday collections. Well, as it happened, the film didquite cover much distance after a decent weekend and collected around 10 crores more. The film did stay stable but that was on the lower end that resulted in the first week billing of 32crores.

Though these are decent collections for the film,much better was expected given the credentials involved. Still, if one compares these with some other films that Emraan Hashmi had done in the recent past which were not in hisase in point being Ek Thi Daayan and Shanghai, the film has fared better. However, one did look forward to more appreciation coming in for the film along with box office moolah, something that was not the case as it had to settle down with anage tag.

The film may just about manage to touch the 4crore mark now.It may have perhaps done that comfortably had Lootera not arrived this week. However with the Ranveer Singh-Sonakshi Sinha film carrying very good hype along with positive vibes and Raanjhanaa too continuing to find audience, Ghanchakkar would have to move away quicker than expectek.
