Six weeks for Deewangee
|
Mentioned below are listed the most recent films that average good openings. The film that performs best in the current week merits listing at the top. BO verdict for these films may differ regardless of the opening.
Anees Bazme's Deewangee continues its run at the head of the box office for the sixth week.
Two films released last week -- Raja Bundela's Pratha and Kewal Krishna's Pardesi Re -- but neither have secured a place among the top ten films of the week due to their miserable collections.
People were not clearly interested in the conspiracy-ridden Pratha nor did they want to see Ashutosh Rana prance to the tunes of Pardesi Re.
