Mumbai: Director Abhishek
Kapoor's third directorial
venture Kai Po Che has
struck the gold at the
Indian Box Office in the
first weekend. The Sushant
Singh Rajput and Raj
Kumar Yadav starrer has
topped the collection
chart, beating another
new release of this week,
Zila Ghaziabad. Trade
experts say that it is an
excellent opening for a
film that does not boast of
star names.
Having fantastic pre-
release promotion, Kai Po
Che, which released in
1,000 screens in India on
February 22, registered
very good occupancy at
the multiplexes in major
cities like Mumbai,
Ahmedabad, Pune, Delhi-
NCR, Gurgaon, Chandigarh,
Kolkata, Indore, Bhopal,
Jaipur and Bangalore,
when compared to the
single screens, where it
had an average amount of
footfalls. Youth are the
one, who seemed to be
the most impressed by the
film.
As expected, Kai Po Che
showed a big jump on
Saturday. Its business was
almost doubled in Kolkata,
Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune,
Delhi and it had a huge
growth in other places.
The movie showed a
massive growth on
Sunday too. It has
collected approximately Rs
18.10 crores nett in the
first weekend. Its breakup
is Rs 4.50 cr on Fri, Rs 6.25
cr on Sat and Rs 7.35 cr on
Sun.
However, many had
thought that Kai Po Che
would stoop down before
Zila Ghaziabad, which stars
leading actors like Sanjay
Dutt, Arshad Warsi and
Vivek Oberoi, but the latter
got eclipsed by the Kai Po
Che wave across major
circuits.
