Deepika's xXx 3 has a poor first weekend in India

Xxx - The Return Of Xander Cage xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage released in India on Saturday "India already breaking records," Vin Diesel wrote in an Instagram post on Monday morning. His new film xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage, co-starring Deepika Padukone, released in India on Saturday. Numbers from Box Office India doesn't appear to support his statement, however. Box Office India reports that xXx 3, as the film's title is shortened, made a gross amount of Rs 17.25 crore - that's Rs 15 crore net - from Friday's paid previews and ticket sales over Saturday and Sunday. This is a fraction of the earnings of Bollywood's big films - for instance, Aamir Khan's Dangal made over Rs 40 crore on its first Sunday alone. Box Office India blames xXx 3's under-performance on two factors - the decision to release the film on a Saturday means it lacked a full weekend, and Sunday's eyeballs were largely occupied watching the first of three India vs England cricket matches. Monday's business is unlikely to compensate for the missed weekend day, Box Office India reports. xXx 3's ticket sales have made marginally more than OK Jaanu, last Friday's Bollywood release, has. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh reported on Monday that OK Jaanu, starring Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, had made Rs 13.80 crore.

Toofan Ki Beti ke jalwe 😆

also 😆 I saw a figure that said friday was 1.75 and saturday was 6.25 for a 14 cr weekend. Now tell me how having the 2D versions and Telugu/Tamil Dubs are going to save this film.
