Aurangzeb: Opens To An Average Occupancy At The Box Office

- May 17, 2013 | 1:36 PM IST

Yash Raj Films’ Aurangzeb, starring Arjun Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Rishi Kapoor, Amrita Singh, Sasheh Agha and Prithviraj, released today across the country. The film was expected to have a start of 40%-50% occupancy, that would have found a decent footing for the film since it doesn’t have much for competition.

However, the film opened to an average occupancy, what with just 20%-25% occupancy across multiplexes. The single screens are performing better though.

Nevertheless, being a hardcore slick action-drama, the film will definitely appeal both single screens and multiplexes audience. A good pick-up in the evening and late night shows is expected.

The other release of the week – I Don’t Luv U opened to less than 5% occupancy. The movie got almost thrashed by the critics and with no positive word of mouth publicity, it will obviously not see a good fate at the Box Office.
