The much-anticipated Ranveer Singh starring movie Jayeshbhai Jordaar was heavily advertised and promoted prior to its release last Friday. Despite this, the film didn’t take off on a good note with box office figures for opening day at 10% of what it was expected to earn. With 2,250 screens showing the movie, many were surprised when it failed to hit expectations when they found out how low those numbers really were.
The recent news surrounding the artist and star has left us breathless. Let’s take a peek at how they fared in the past? With only collecting Rs. 12 crores, this is easily one of the lowest openers for Jayesh Bhai Jordaar who ranks right after Ranveer Singh when it comes to worst opener weekends? This time around with such poor advertising for his newest release – one would have expected numbers way higher than previous films where it didn’t reach much higher than what he originally set out to do with Ladies vs Ricky Bahl which took them no time breaking box office records. What did go wrong? Blame it on the hype from Ranveer’s last release Befikre, or just pray for mediocre numbers because if things keep going down this way – then that opens up room for speculation about how long both parties can continue their respective run at the cinema halls.
