New Delhi: In case of Bollywod, it seems what the critics say about a film doesnt matter much for the audiences. Be it Salman Khans Bodyguard, Akshay Kumars Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore or Saif Ali Khans latest film Cocktail, all of them got below average reviews. However, all these films earned commercial success.
Released last Friday, Cocktail has already earned nearly Rs 50 crore in India. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh lately tweeted, "#Cocktail [Week 1] Mon 5.75 cr, Tue 4.80 cr. Total: 46.05 cr nett." The film is doing well overseas as well. Taran tweeted, "#Cocktail *UK* Mon 43,214, Tue 44,054. Total: 383,584 ... *Australia* Mon A$ 20,685, Tue A$ 32,220. Total: A$ 233,272. #Cocktail *New Zealand* Mon NZ$ 4,556, Tue NZ$ 8,937. Total: NZ$ 50,565."
Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty play the lead roles in the film. Directed by Homi Adajania, story of the film has been written by Imtiaz Ali. Probably the chic look of the film and its peppy music is still attracting the audiences. Apart from Hollywood film The Dark Knight Rises, there is no big release lined up for this Friday. That means, Cocktail has one more week to make money. Do you think Cocktail has the chances of crossing Rs 100 crore mark?
