Rangoon Has Very Dull Weekend

Rangoon had a very dull weekend as it opened poorly and was flat over weekend with collections being less on Saturday and Sunday and Sunday being lowest. The first day was the best day, The film collected 14.25-14,50 crore nett over its first weekend. The weekend business is in the range of films like Sanam Re, Raaz Reboot and Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3 from last year and that pretty much tells the story of the film. The poor opening you can get away as films have jumped 60-70% and even more on Saturday but here that was not even close to happening. The film may see normal drops on the weekdays but that will be as collections are so low. The business of Rangoon over the weekend was as follows.

Friday - 5,06,00,000

Saturday - 4,75,00,000

Sunday - 4,50,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 14,31,00,000 apprx

The film will have repercussions for the actors and director as it happened with the likes of Bombay Velvet and Mohenjo Daro. The film may end up with lifetime business similar to a film like Ok Jaanu. The cast of Rangoon may not be the saleable type but you would put the Shahid Kapoor / Kangana Ranaut / Saif Ali Khan combo ahead of Aditya Roy Kapoor / Shraddha Kapoor and on top Rangoon is a bigger film and Ok Jaanu clashed with XXX and Pongal releases down South. Despite this the results of both films will be similar unless there is some sort of miracle on Monday for Rangoon.
