Cocktail Box Office – Opening Day Analysis

Cocktail seems to have taken a bumper start in many parts of the country. Starring Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty, the movie was one of the most awaited one’s of this month and thus the huge box office opening comes as no surprise. The movie might have got average reviews but the good publicity seems to have left its impact.

If you look at North India the movie had an almost 90-100% average occupancy rate in multiplexes. As of now the movie is doing pretty well in Chandigarh, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Delhi, Noida and Ahmedabad. The average occupancy in movies across the country would be over 80%. It is a huge number for any movie in the recent past. In fact one can easily compare it to opening day of other Blockbusters this year.

Multiplexes in the metros seem to be doing a better business than that of single screen theaters and non-urban areas. The opening day has indeed proved to be bigger than anyone predicted and in the absence of a competition, Cocktail will indeed do some good business. Collections will only increase during the weekend, however average reviews might hit the movie to some extend. All said and done Cocktail seems to be prepared for a rocking journey at the Indian Box Office.

Updates

Cocktail opened to a decent box office collection of 10.75 crores. It might not sound a huge amount but is definitely a lot more than most trade pundits predicted for the film. It seems the film will do a fair business in the coming weekend.

    Imtiaz ali has copied the climax of his own movie, love aaj kal in cocktail.. Movie starts with a fresh curious story but really get disappointed with the ordinary predictable climax.. Post interval portion is just stretched by filling with songs otherwise movie has no progress in story at all….There was also lack of love element in the character Mira .Her love for saif is not shown ,its only implied…Overall its a one time watch just for deepika padukone …

    1)saif ali khan ..tried very very hard to look cool dude ..reality he is too old for thse kinds of role
    2) saif ali khan ..tried very very hard to replicate love aajkal in this movie ..but failed badly ..
    3) with same name from movie love aajkal meera , deepika , london instead of newyork … coming back to india in final scene …same as love aajakal.
    4) yeh dooriya rplace by yaariyan…..so ultimately he failed to create love aajkal
    5) YOU CAN ONLY WATCH FIRST HALF AND COME BACK …noo need to watch second half … second half is worst and ….ending is like killing everyone …everyone trying to get out in the end …its streched tooooo long ..
