The other release of the week, Kaabil has started with a slow start on Wednesday- 10.43 crores, but jumped on Thursday- 18.67 crores, Friday- 9.77 crores, Saturday- 13 crores and Sunday- 15 crores. Overall, Kaabil has collected 67 crores at the Box-Office.
Both the movie’s collections prove that they will surely cross the 100 crores magical mark in 3-4 days. Kaabil was lagging back on the first day against Raees, has performed well on the Day 2. Raees on the other side looses its audience on the Day 2 and Day 3. The word of a mouth publicity has helped Kaabil in a better way. Even, Hrithik Roshan’s strong performance has made an audience go crazy for him.
In Raees, Shah Rukh Khan essays a role of a bootlegger, who turns a mafia don. He was constantly being chased by police officer Nawazuddin Siddiqui and finally, he shot him down. It was one of those movies that will remind you of the 90’s era. Whereas, Kaabil is a dark story with a dark theme. If you say that it is a romantic film that you are totally wrong. It is more of a vengeance drama and action.
Now it seems that Raees collections will be slow down in the days to come and Kaabil will remain stable by the end of the week.
