For years on end, Bollywood was superstitious about releasing movies in the month of January. However, when films like No One Killed Jessica and Agneepath, which released in the first month of 2011 and 2012 respectively, proved successful, it looked like the jinx had been broken. Well, not exactly. A trade source says that January 2014 has, once again, been a jinxed month, with movies losing almost Rs 100 crore.
Mr Joe B Carvalho, Sholay 3D, Dedh Ishqiya, Karle Pyaar Karle, Miss Lovely, Om-Dar-Ba-Dar, Paranthe Wali Gali, Jai Ho and One By Two " all of them fared below expectations.
Though February salvaged the situation to a certain degree by putting out some average earners, the trade is still reeling from the impact of the January duds.
