BO plays tag with Abhishek again!
|
Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost was expected to catapult Abhishek Bachchan into the big league. It did no such thing.
Although Bachchan Jr's performance was appreciated, the film has been a disappointment from the word go.
Meanwhile, Hrithik Roshan's Koi… Mil Gaya continues to give Bollywood heroes a run for their money by staying put at the top slot.
Note: Films are ranked on the basis of their performance at the box office every week. Though a film may be declared a flop, it may have performed better than the other films that week.
