Flops galore at the box office

Tags: Jacqueline Fernandez, Shahid Kapoor, Vinod Mirani, Do Dilon Ke Khel Mein, Chigusa Takaku

Last week's six releases -- Kushti, Do Dilon Ke Khel Mein, Admission Open, Bum Bum Bole, Vroom and Bal Hanuman [ Images ] 2 -- were all very poor. Most of them didn't get enough audience for a show and were discontinued.

Trade analyst Vinod Mirani gives us the box office verdict.
