Neerja goes the Queen way at box office: A Rs 35 crore opening week for the Sonam Kapoor! DNA WEB TEAM | Fri, 26 Feb 2016-08:17pm , dna webdesk Sonam's last film has surpassed everyone's expectations and has recorded a fabulous Rs 35 crore weekend at the cash registers... Sonam Kapoor had received a lot of flak initially for her acting but now, withNeerja, all pre-conceived notions about her stand altered. Neerja has helped enhance her acting prowess and given everyone to watch the potential actress in Sonam. The result? The film has shown fantastic growth at the ticket windows. Much to everyone's surprise, when trade pundits had predicted a Rs 35-40 crore lifetime business for Neerja, the film has outdone itself at the box office. Neerjahas gone strong at the BO and it has only recorded one of the best opening week figures for a film of this stature and budget. ;"> Made on a meagre budget of Rs 13 crore, the film earned around Rs 22 crore in the opening weekend itself and consistently added over Rs 3 crore everyday in the weekdays to ensure a fabulous opening weekend total of over Rs 35 crore. And now, strong in its second week as well, the film is expected to easily cross the Rs 50 crore mark by the end of this weekend itself. Also, if the film crosses the Rs 50 crore by Sunday, it will have high chances to go the Queen and the Kahaani way and record a lifetime run of over Rs 65 crore which is fantastic. While Kahaanicollected Rs 57 crore in total, Kangana Ranaut's Queen had a lifetime business of Rs 61 crore. Seeing Neerja's pace at the box office and the appreciation flowing its way, the film will easily cross that mark at the box office. http://www.dnaindia.com/entertainment/report-neerja-goes-the-queen-way-at-box-office-a-rs-35-crore-opening-weekend-for-the-sonam-kapoor-2182797

I hope that, like Queen, the movie get awarded next year. The director, the producer, the supporting cast and Sonam seem to deserve it.
If the movie manages to reach the 100cr mark it sure will help the movie to keep its momentum till then and ensure that all this hard work isn't forgotten/overshadowed.

The story was good. Thats why.

If Sonam does bad films she will flop again.

Maybe she has learnt a lesson from this.

This is no ordinary story though. I wonder if Sonam will be able to find a story just as good. .

Yaa, same as Queen or Piku or any other movie. Story is king. & it needs a skilled hand to make it shine. It is a lesson for any actor, i want to believe.

Neerja does differ from others as it is a once in a lifetime role. Real character movies are always special, & rare so iam optimistic.

I hope Ram Madhvanis work is a challenge for all directors in Bwood & those Sonam is working with next will get inspired to do greater work.

Her next two are rumoured to be with Shashank Gosh. He had good success with Khoobsurat so it is promising.

Congratulations to the team. Very well deserved. I think small budget films should follow the publicity pattern of films like Kahaani and Queen. Keep it low key during release, do massive social media promotions and then just let word of mouth promotion do the talking.
Neerja deserves all the success. They earned almost what Deadpool did in the opening week.
