Jayeshbhai Jordaar Collection Day 1: Lootera Aur Kill was worse than Dil's opening, big discount on Ranveer's reputation
Ranveer Singh is the most expensive and highest earning star of Hindi cinema in the country's brand market. He also says that he enjoys making advertisement films more than films. Now either Ranveer Singh has lost touch with the likes of his fans or the story told to him by the director of the film Divyang Thakkar could not land on the same screen. In Ranveer Singh's 12-year career, the film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' looks to be his worst opening film.
Yash Raj Films' latest film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' has been released in the country and the world on 13th May. Made and released at a cost of about Rs 60 crore, the opening day of this film is not even 10 percent of its cost.
He describes himself as a copywriter before an actor and also claims that the story of the film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' captivated him at first. The film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' has been released on Friday. The biggest hit film of Ranveer Singh's career so far has been 'Padmavat'. The film collected a total of Rs 302.15 crore at the box office and its opening day was Rs 24 crore. This has been the biggest opening of Ranveer Singh's entire career so far.
According to the initial figures received so far, the film has earned only Rs 4.10 crore on the first day in the whole country. It is generally believed that if the opening of a film is close to 20 percent of its total cost (including production and promotion), then that film can recover its cost in the first week. A film with an opening of 10 percent is considered average and films with less than that opening are almost impossible to succeed at the box office.
The opening of the film 'Ladies Vs Ricky Behl' released in 2011 was also more than the film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar'. The film earned Rs 4.74 crore on the first day at the box office. Opening less than the film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar', now Ranveer Singh's career has only his debut film 'Band Baaja Baaraat', this film took an opening of Rs 95 lakhs on the first day at the time of its release in the year 2010. But, the trouble here is that in Ranveer Singh's career, films that have taken such openings have been included in his list of flops. Ranveer Singh's films so far that have taken an opening of less than Rs 10 crore include his superflop films like 'Kill Dil' and 'Lootera'. These films took openings of Rs 6.53 crore and Rs 5.15 crore respectively eight, nine years ago.
The film 'Gunday', which managed to recover its cost, earned Rs 16.12 crore on the first day and 'Goliyon Ki Rasleela - Ramleela' earned Rs 16 crore, being fifth among the five best opening films of Ranveer. His previous film '83' earned Rs 12.64 crore on the first day. Rohit Shetty's film 'Simmba', which earned Rs 240.31 crore at the box office, earned Rs 20.72 crore on the first day and followed by his film 'Gully Boy' with Alia Bhatt, which had an opening of Rs 19.40 crore. Due to the advance booking of the film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar', it started feeling that this film is going to eat roti on the first day itself. The estimate was that this film will take an opening between Rs 5 to 6 crore and will improve its collection in the coming days with the praise of the audience.
