Hey there, fellow Bollywood buffs! It’s your favorite snoop, Bollywood Newshound Nisha, back with the juiciest gossip and the latest scoop from B-town. Today, we’re diving into the tumultuous box office journey of Akshay Kumar’s latest flick, "Sarfira." Buckle up, because it’s a wild ride! 😜
Sarfira Box Office Collection Day 8: A Journey from Hype to Hiccup
So, "Sarfira" was supposed to be the movie of the year, right? The trailer had everyone buzzing like bees, and fans were practically foaming at the mouth in anticipation. The film hit the theaters on July 12th, and despite getting a thumbs-up from both critics and audiences, it seems like the hype train derailed somewhere along the way. 🛤️💥
Day 8 Box Office Blues:
Our beloved Khiladi Kumar, who’s been having a bit of a dry spell at the box office lately, didn’t quite strike gold with "Sarfira." The movie opened with a respectable ₹2.5 crore on its first day. But alas, the excitement fizzled out faster than a soda left open overnight.
Here’s the lowdown on the collections:
- Day 1: ₹2.5 crore
- Day 2: ₹4.25 crore
- Day 3: ₹5.25 crore
- Day 4: ₹1.45 crore
- Day 5: ₹1.95 crore
- Day 6: ₹2.15 crore
- Day 7: ₹1.2 crore
Total for the first week? A not-so-whopping ₹18.75 crore. And on the eighth day? According to early trend reports, "Sarfira" managed to scrape together a measly ₹40 lakh. Ouch! Bringing the grand total to ₹19.15 crore. 📉
Bad News Wreaks Havoc:
Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse, along comes Vicky Kaushal’s comedy blockbuster "Bad News," which practically bulldozed "Sarfira" out of the theaters. Add to that the competition from Kamal Haasan’s "Indian 2" and Prabhas’ "Kalki 2898 AD," and you’ve got yourself a recipe for disaster. It’s like "Sarfira" never stood a chance. 🍿💔
Directed by Sudha Kongara, "Sarfira" is the Hindi remake of the 2020 Tamil hit "Soorarai Pottru," which starred Suriya and Aparna Balamurali. This time around, we had Akshay Kumar, Radhika Madan, and Paresh Rawal stepping into the spotlight. But apparently, even this stellar star cast couldn’t save the day.
Nisha’s Nutshell:
Bollywood Moral of the Story: Even the biggest stars can’t guarantee a hit if the stars aren’t aligned. Sometimes, it’s just a bad day at the box office.
And that, my dear readers, is the topsy-turvy world of Bollywood for you. Until next time, keep your popcorn ready and your expectations low! 🎬🍿
