The Akshay Kumar-starring Good News film by Raj Mehta is becoming a prominent topic in both media and general discussions. Released last week, the movie opened on a good note with positive reviews from both audiences and critics alike. After its strong opening, it increased exponentially to reach over Rs. 100 crore at the box office for its weekend release.
This past weekend box office report will show how much money was made for the opening week for a movie. This is also an opportunity to compare these figures with other movies from recent history and see if there are any insights or trends. Good Newwz opened up at Rs 127.90 crore (including Sunday) which has now been surpassed by many of his recent works but it did manage to achieve second place status in his own list; overtaking Kesari, Toilet-Ek Prem Katha and Rustom though it still does not hold its own against these numbers for both houseful 4 and mission mangal each having their own time slot towards the top spot respectively.
As of now, buzz surrounding Good News is still pretty high. This combined with the number of other releases scheduled for release means that there will likely be a slight dip in its box office numbers. Despite this, it remains at the top of most theater goers’ lists – they are unable to wait until they are able to see it on screen again!
