Saif Ali Khan starrer Jawaani Jaaneman has taken a decent opening of 3.24 crores at the box office. This is on the expected lines as it was predicted in this column that a start of 3-4 crores was on the cards. Though a number on the higher side of 3.50 crores would have been even better, the fact that the film has managed to breach the 3 crores mark is still fair enough.
For Saif Ali Khan, this must be a relief of sorts as the opening is far better than Baazaar (3.07 crores) which was a reasonable success. Otherwise, he hasn’t really enjoyed a great run with Laal Kaptaan, Kaalakaandi and Chef not even taking an opening. A start like his promises a much better weekend than Baazaar and one now waits to see how does the audience word of mouth turn it around.
