Pakistan welcomes 'Bhoothnath'

The spate of recent Bollywood releases in Pakistan will in the long run help the revival of the Pakistani film industry, a leading distributor from the country has said.
"Indian cinema is playing a huge role in reviving the Pakistani film industry," says Hammad Chaudhry, marketing director of HKC Entertainment, which has distributed films like 'Bride and Prejudice', 'Welcome', 'Bhoothnath' and 'Jannat' in Pakistan.
"The box-office numbers that 'Welcome' generated in Pakistan took everybody by surprise," Chaudhry said, adding "that has enthused us to release 'Bhoothnath' and 'Jannat' back to back. I am happy to report that both films have taken bumper openings."
'Welcome', which opened 14 weeks ago, is still running in Pakistan.
'Bhoothnath', he said, is particularly significant because it stars Amitabh Bachchan and has a special appearance by Shahrukh Khan. "This is the first time that the two Bollywood megastars officially have a film on screens in Pakistan," he added.
Chaudhry pointed out that the commercial success of the critically acclaimed Pakistani film 'Khuda Kay Liye' in India also helped in changing mindsets on both sides of the border.

One of the scenes that really made me cry was towards the end when 'Bhoothnath' went and Panku went to the top of the house and looking at the sky cried for him...

i am still shocked its a flop
personally i felt it was a great film when i saw the promo i thought they would show a friendship of the bhoot and the child straightaway but i liked the way they carried the story without making it seem boring and stretched which seems to happen a lot with bollywood movies
its a hit for me 😳
