Samrat Prithviraj Day 4 Box Office Occupancy: 9% occupancy in the morning; several shows canceled due to no audience
After a low-key opening with just Rs. 10.70 cr, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar’s recent outing Samrat Prithviraj’s film opened last week to mixed reviews and a low-key audience. Over the weekend, the Chandraprakash Dwivedi directed the film, which also stars Manushi Chhillar, Sanjay Dutt and Sonu Sood has continued to do poorly. The film has now seen a further drop on its fourth day.
As per trade estimates, Samrat Prithviraj’s collections will plummet to single digits starting today. Day 4 collections for the movie are estimated to be around Rs. 4-5 crores.
Samrat Prithviraj has been experiencing a massive drop in occupancy over its first Monday morning shows, according to reports. The film’s occupancy rate was just 9%, and some locations have reported canceling shows due to a lack of audience. There have been reports of theatre cancellations in locations like Akola [Miraj], Raigad [Carnival], Prayagraj [Starworld], Punjab, and Satara due to a lack of bookings. There have been cancellations at multiplex properties where foot traffic has been low.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has crossed Rs. 150 crores rather comfortably. The horror-comedy directed by Anees Bazmee is now at Rs. 160 crores and it will only be a matter of time before it crosses Rs. 175 crores.
