jannat Boc Office Report | Bhoothnaath Box office Report

The coming Friday will see a clash between Mithun Chakraborty's DON MUTHUSWAMI, Anupam Kher and Rakhi Sawant's DHOOM DHADAKA and the animated GHATOTHKACH. While none of the three is expected to create much of an impact at the ticket-window, the well publicized GHATOTHKACH may appeal somewhat to the kids!

As we had said last week, the Bhatts seem to have hit the bulls-eye with their latest Emraan Hashmi starrer. Yes, the lovely start of the Kunal Deshmukh directed JANNAT has gladdened the hearts of the industry people, more so because the film does not boast of star names, but Pritam and Kamran Ahmad's hit music and the cricket fever seems to have done the trick, not to forget the super publicity. While the opening day was good in Mumbai, it was very good outside of Mumbai. JANNAT has also performed reasonably well in the UK, for an Emraan Hashmi starrer, grossing $96,371 during the first weekend.

Ravi Chopra's Vivek Sharma directed BHOOTHNATH picked up after a reasonable start as the weekend progressed, but collections dropped considerably from Monday onwards. Surprisingly, the Amitabh Bachchan starrer has some decent numbers to show, despite the IPL fever! During the week BHOOTHNATH collected 3.10 crores from Mumbai, 77 lakhs from Ahmedabad, 4.20 lakhs from Baroda, 1.35 lakhs from Patan, 1 lakh each from Palanpur and Bhuj, 1.40 lakhs from Himmatnagar, 8.50 lakhs from Rajkot, 2.85 lakhs from Jamnagar, 4.30 lakhs from Bhavnagar, 14.20 lakhs from Pune, 1.25 lakhs from Solapur, 1.85 lakhs from Gandhidham, 1.15 lakhs from Adipur, 2 lakhs from Sangli, 8.50 lakhs from Nasik, 1.55 crores from Delhi city, 21 lakhs from Noida, 26 lakhs from Ghaziabad, 10.20 lakhs from Kanpur, 20 lakhs from Lucknow, 4.40 lakhs from Agra, 5.50 lakhs from Meerut, 2.80 lakhs fromMoradabad, 1.70 lakhs from Bareilly, 1.10 lakhs from Aligarh, 21.50 lakhs from Gurgaon, 9.75 lakhs from Faridabad, 1.85 lakhs from Panipat, 57 lakhs from Calcutta, 2.50 lakhs from Guwahati, 14.10 lakhs from Nagpur, 1.70 lakhs from Jabalpur, 1.50 lakhs from Amravati, 2.05 lakhs from Dhule, 1.20 lakhs from Raipur, 1.80 lakhs from Durg, 1 lakh from Bhandara, 20 lakhs from Indore, 1.10 lakhs from Sehore, 7.55 lakhs from Jaipur, 2.40 lakhs (gross) from Ajmer, 2 lakhs from Bikaner, 4.80 lakhs from Mangalore and 25 lakhs from Hyderabad. During its opening week, the Amitabh, Juhi, Aman and SRK (special appearance) starrer manages a healthy 14.50 crores from India. Given its reasonable 19-20 crore budget, that is a fairly decent start! However, BHOOTHNATH has failed to impress the Overseas with ordinary grosses of $278,083 and $375,509 from UK and US respectively.
