Alone box office collections: Bipasha Basu starrer enjoys decent opening weekend

Monday, 19 January 2015 - 2:15pm IST | Agency: dna webdesk

The Bipasha Basu- Karan Singh Grover starrer has raked in around Rs 14 crore in the opening weekend.

Bipasha Basu's last few releases had put her in the back foot. Be it Aatma, Humshakals or Creature, the dismal performances had certainly put in brakes on the actress' career. But Alone has definitely helped her revive her falling career. Ask why and here's the answer.

Alone released in a limited number of screens and clashed with three other releases of the week- Zayed Khan'sSharafat Gayi Tel Lene, Crazy Kukkad Familyand Vikram's I. While the first two had disastrous openings at the box office, it was only Vikram's I that could have still given Alone a run for its money.

But the hi-tech film could not live up to its expectations and did not make quite an impact in most places except South. Alone, on the other hand managed a decent business in the range of Rs 14 crore in the first three days itself. Made on a comparatively lower budget, the film will have another few days to bring in few more crores and trod into the hit space.

Alone has another 4 days to bring in as much moolah it can because with Sonam Kapoor'sDolly Ki Doli and Akshay Kumar's Baby hitting the screens together on January 23, Alone will face another screen crunch and stiff competition from the two films is expected. But the collections by far should make Bips happy, given that her last three films were total washouts.

ALONE Is Heading For Decent Weekend





2014 proved to be a bad year at box office for Hindi film industry and with failure of ''''Tevar'''', even 2015 has taken a poor start. Now there is a week which will see plethora of releases and out of these, ''''Alone'''' has managed to save some time of reputation at box office.





''''Alone'''' is another Bipasha Basu starrer horror film directed by successful director Bhushan Patel who directed ''''Ragini MMS 2'''' and ''''1920 Evil Returns''''. But this film took a sluggish start as there is no chartbuster song and no novelty value.





Film worked in mass belts due to horror genre.And that is why film managed to collect pretty decent 4.57 cr nett on day one. As this genre has its own limitation, film was never expected to jump big. And that is why even a similar number on Saturday meant a good result.





Film collected 4.45 cr nett on day two taking 2 day total to 7.25 cr nett. Film added 5.63 cr nett on Sunday taking 3 day total to 14.65 cr nett plus which is good but not great. Film will be steady on weekdays but big releases next week will curtail its run. Film is looking for 18-20 cr nett lifetime.






Below are the collections for the film -

Okay got this from wikipedia
BudgetINR18 crore (US$2.8 million)
Box officeINR14.3 crore (US$2.2 million) 3rd day collection

So it will need 4 more crores to even its budget then maybe promotion cost was there to it. So I feel it will even out the total spendings

Satisfactory collections for a film with a newcomer as the male lead .

Does anyone have figures to compare when another newcomer ( male) has fared better as a solo lead ?

Would be an interesting know😆

Why is an average of 4 cr being projected as a major loss?



Bipashas last film Creature 3D also had a debutant TV actor from Pak, Imran Abbas as male lead. Movie was also in horror genre but without sex tadka. It flopped with around 18 cr collection as per Box Office India.

if the budget is 18 crore then there is a chance of the movie being a hit also!

Hate story did better in comparison though it had two television stars - Jay Bhanushali and Surveen Chawla debuting in Bollywood, with no established star like Alone. First day collections were 5.47 crs. 25 crs in the first week.

Did it release with 3 other movies!? This is still pretty good according to me! And this one is not a franchise either, and lets see how much this one manages to make in a week! Not to forget PK is still going strong!

It was not a solo release and had competition from other movies that had released previously.
