Ground Zero and Phule Drop to Horribly Low Levels on Monday –

Ground Zero and Phule Box Office Collections:

The last Friday release, Ground Zero, is performing poorly at the box office. The film had a weak opening weekend, and now the Monday hold has sealed its fate. It is a significant flop, and there are no excuses for it.

Ground Zero Review: Emraan Hashmi's unpersuasive persona in an otherwise stretched movie

The film collected approximately 5 crore nett in the opening weekend, but the Monday collections have fallen to Rs. 50 lakhs nett. This represents a 55% drop from Friday and a 75% drop from Sunday, when both the Friday and Sunday numbers were already too low. The Emraan Hashmi starrer film will add around 2 crore more before Raid 2 hits cinemas and will then exit most screens. The lifetime collection will fall below 10 crore nett or may barely reach 10 crore nett as an outside chance. Nevertheless, it won't change the verdict on the film. It's a DISASTER!

Below are the collections for Ground Zero:

Friday - 1 crore nett

Saturday - 1.80 crore nett

Sunday - 2 crore nett

Monday - 50 lakhs nett  

The other release, Phule, performed even worse and scored another disaster. The Pratik Gandhi and Patralekhaa starrer collected 70 lakhs nett in the opening weekend, then dropped to 15 lakhs nett on Monday. The film's 4-day total is lower than 1 crore nett, and it won't cross the 2 crore nett mark in its lifetime run.

Below are the collections for Phule:

Friday - 10 lakhs nett

Saturday - 25 lakhs nett

Sunday - 35 lakhs nett

Monday - 15 lakhs nett

Total - 85 lakhs nett

Kesari Chapter 2 has a SOLID HOLD on the second Monday; Tuesday will be higher –
