October, starring Varun Dhawan and
Banita Sandhu, struck a chord with the
audience, due to its emotional story.
It was not the usual Varun Dhawan
masala 100 crore film, and so, not
surprisingly, October opened at Rs 5 crore
at the box office. It has made around Rs
39 crore, till now.
When asked about this, Varun told a
leading daily, "It was a little humbling. I
didn't promote this film as much as I do
for my other movies. There was just one
trailer and two songs that became the
selling points. Shoojit da [Sircar, director]
didn't want to give out any information."
"So, keeping these factors in mind, we had
expected this figure. In fact, many people
didn't even know that the film was
releasing. If you ask me, the film really
released on day two, when we saw a 65
per cent jump in collection. Also, I don't
agree with suggestions that this film isn't
for everybody. No matter who watches it,
s/he will inevitably be moved on some
level," he added.
October tells the story of Dan, a hotel
management trainee, whose entire life
changes after his colleague Shiuli (Banita)
suffers a traumatic accident. The film deals
with an unusual and different
understanding of love and emotion.
The film received glowing reviews, and
many praised Varun for breaking out of
his masala image. Banita's performance
was widely appreciated, as well.
