Box Office Collections: Mohalla Assi Underperforms Even With Minimal Expectations, Pihu Is As Expected

Box Office Collections: Mohalla Assi was always expected to be a non-starter. After all it was a delayed release with Sunny Deol not really enjoying any market and then the subject too (the business of religion) not the kind that is expected to attract masses. Moreover, it arrived sans any pomp or show.

As a matter of fact this film directed by Dr. Chandraprakash Dwivedi found a token release of sorts.

Still, the film was expected to bring in 75 lakhs – 1 crore, which again would have been very poor. However, what transpired in theaters was even poor as the numbers couldn’t even come close to these low numbers. The footfalls were terrible and that reflected in the disastrous first day collections of just 25 lakhs*. This is now even lower than what Sunny Deol’s earlier delayed release I Love NY had collected [50 lakhs] way back in 2015. The film is a disaster already and one waits to see how it survives beyond the first weekend.
