It was a low weekend for The Sky Is Pink as just Rs. 10.70 crores came in. Even if one accounts for the fact that it was an offbeat film made for the niche audiences, given the kind of cast that it boasts of at least Rs. 16-18 crores opening weekend was the need of the hour.
Sunday’s collections were a disappointment at Rs. 4.20 crores; the numbers showed some growth from Saturday but should have been higher if Sunday had followed suit. Clearly, the movie hasn’t struck a chord with its intended audience, which is significantly affecting the earnings it has received.
One now waits to see how the film performs over the weekdays. Given the trending so far, one can’t really expect Monday numbers to be even same as Friday numbers, leave aside greater than that, something that should ideally be the case. However, a dip in numbers would mean the trending won’t be great and as a result the film would face an uphill task after the first week.
After Jai Gangaajal, Priyanka Chopra came back to Bollywood and deserved much better than what she received. Unfortunately, Farhan Akhtar’s latest project, similarly to his previous films, didn’t prove as successful as anticipated.
