New Bollywood releases opens to no response, Punjabi film Jihne Mera Dil Luteya rocks Punjab

Bubble Gum, Gandhi To Hitler and Khap all opened to extremely poor houses of around 5%. The films have managed a very poor multiplex release as we have films like Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Singham going strong while the programmers at multiplexes this week have preferred the Hollywood releases like Cowboys & Aliens, The Smurfs and The Lion King.

The best opening from Hollywood is for Coyboy & Aliens which had a 20-25% opening. The Smurfs opened at 30-35% but only for the 3D version, the 2D version opened at around the 10-15% mark.

Singham continues phenomenal run in Maharashtra, CP Berer amd Nizam while Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is still number one choice even its third week in Delhi NCR, Kolkata and Bangalore.

The Punjabi film from Tips Industries Ltd Jihne Mera Dil Luteya and directed by Mandeep Kumar has rocked the box office in Punjab today.

The collections were 100% at multiplexes and over 100% at single screens. All over the state the opening was bumper. Ludhiana, Jalandhar, Amritsar, Patiala and even Ambala in Haryana were all huge

The last film from TIPS Mel Karade Rabba was the highest grossing Punjabi film ever and looking at the opening of Jihne Mera Dil Luteya it may challenge that film if it manages to sustain from Monday onwards.
