Sunny Deol’s newest movie “Jaat” is doing a tough job at the box office, as per reports it has seen a steep decline in takings on its second day of releases.
Directed by the hype Deol’s action-hero persona and Randeep Hooda, far from being able to open at around Rs 17 crores levels shows struggle to sustain momentum.
The drop in Hatke ‘s “Jaat” collection on its second day was huge and it definitely looked dreadful. The initial release was a thing”, but a follow up falloff might mean that the draw may be limited. This fall gets my qualms about how the film will do at the box-office and sustain audience interest.
“Sunny Deol film test” have been eagerly eyed : as per industry analyst its not quite the trajectory one might have hoped for.
From the jagged dip in its momentum to the first release – there have been questions about whether its content or marketing had a say on that. Critics and audience” Jaat review” has been mixed with a few people praising Deol’s action sequences but most criticizing the predictable story line.
Earnings have led conversations with many considering various factors that why the film had posted such lackluster performance. Others think the drop has to do with the story being too tropey and not having much new content. Several of them also add that the timing to their release and audience preferences dictated its performance.
While Randeep Hooda’s entry in the film added few star lustre, there has been not enough to arrest the wobbly trajectory of it’s box office. Though his performances are well praised, the reception of the film was lukewarm in general. These figures for “Jaat Box office” speak volumes, obviously a super cast was not enough to attract a big mass to see this film.
This was a major failure for the film to cross Rs 17 cr, considering everyone was hoping that Sunny Deol (yes just a demon release) would at least return to the action genre. This performance is timely in questioning the future of such projects and the new normal in Indian film industry.
The fate of the film, which has been watched closely by how the “Jaat Box office collection” moves in future is not clear. These coming days will be of utmost importance to see whether it recovers from its opening dip and has a medium size run at best. One of the most resented things will be the performances of actors as industry analysts would have to percolate with the current changed whims in Indian cinema.
