Kumar deserves credit for earnestly keeping a straight face through most of this schlock, with a role most muddied and unheroic.

His girl Sonakshi Sinha [ Images ] has even more of a nothing role, her face lighting up with exultant joy every time she gets an actual line of dialogue. Occasionally, in sequences where she has nothing to say, she looks seductively towards the screen in particular and bites her lip, as if seducing the poor cinematographer

Joker should hav got at least 8-10 crore opening giving Akshay Kumar's status but it just proves Akshay kumar does not really hav the star power to stay at the top consistently.

No Smiles For Joker

by Shabdita Shrivastav (August 31, 2012)

Today marks the release of Shirish Kunder's Joker along with Jalpari – The Desert Mermaid, I Am 24 and From Sydney With Love. The only film that has received an opening worth mentioning is Joker, which features Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha. The Rowdy Rathore jodi is back but they have failed to rekindle the magic they wove last time around.

Joker received a below-average opening of below 20 per cent across India today, and distributors feel there is no scope for improvement over the weekend.

In Mumbai, Rajesh Thadani of Multimedia Combines says, "There was no curiosity among the audience for Joker. The opening is just about 30 per cent all over India. We will have to wait to see if the film sees any progress even though that is unlikely."

GD Mehta of Bobby Arts International adds, "The opening of the film is not worth mentioning. Both Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi SInha could have had a hat-trick with Joker as their previous two films raked in Rs 100 crore each. But Joker won't sustain good numbers at the ticket counter."

Surendra Saluja of Lakshya Movies says, "In East Punjab, there is absolutely no buzz around Joker. The opening of the film here is 25 per cent. I doubt the film will pick up during the day or during the weekend."

In West Bengal, Sunit Singh of Aum Moviez agrees. "Joker received a lot of negative publicity since Akshay Kumar refused to promote the film. So we cannot expect the film to take a good opening. The opening of the film is 10 to 12 per cent, and even if the numbers pick up over the weekend, they will plummet on Monday."

Sarang Chandak of Shri Rang Films says, "The reports of the film are very poor in CP and in other places too. The opening too is awful, 5 to 10 per cent. Joker is a dud and will not last at the box office."

In Orissa, Jeetu Khandelwal of Pioneer Movies concludes, "The film has failed to live up to expectations. I was wondering why UTV, which sold Rowdy Rathore for Rs 47 lakh in our circuit, sold Joker for just Rs 25 lakh. Now I know why. The film lacks content. Its opening in multiplexes is 40 per cent and in single-screens 15 to 20 per cent. And the numbers will definitely fall."

In the next installment of Temple Run the protagonist will be running away from Sirish Kunder inviting him to watch Joker.

B.O. update: 'Joker' has shockingly low start

By Taran Adarsh, August 31, 2012 - 15:36 IST

The super-successful team of ROWDY RATHORE, Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha, failed to lure the audiences as their new outing JOKER opened to a shockingly low response across many screens in India. The initial shows were in 10% to 15% to 20% range, while the single screens in the mass-dominated belt recorded better occupancies. What comes as a shock is the low turnout despite the presence of A-list stars in the movie.

The next two days -- Saturday and Sunday -- are crucial for the film. JOKER will have to show a miraculous escalation in business if it has to stay afloat.

Joker opens to poor houses almost everywhere. Film seems to be doomed.

I guess if people had not see the trailor...it would have gotten a better start...atleast Akki's star power would have gotten in more people...and another reason is that ETT is still running strong...The trailor and those hideous looking aliens running on the streets of mumbai did it for Joker..
