Aamir Khan’s new film Thugs Of Hindostan has failed to perform as per expectations at the box office. Not only has the screen count been reduced to 1800 from 5000 in the second week, but its collections also depict a stark difference in between two weeks since its release on Diwali.
In its first week, Thugs Of Hindostan collected Rs 134.95 crore while it earned Rs 5.40 crore in its second weekend. The difference is quite visible as the film earned Rs 119 crore in its four-day extended opening weekend as opposed to the numbers observed in its second weekend. Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, Thugs Of Hindostan released in Tamil and Telugu apart from Hindi as trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted that the total collections of the film – all versions – are Rs 145.95 crore.
