Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha’s Ittefaq released today and it looks like the movie had a slow start at the box office. The movie’s makers had a different promotional strategy by releasing unique videos of the lead actors Sidharth and Sonakshi.
Ittefaq opened at 15% – 20 % morning occupancy. It has been garnering amazing reviews for its storyline, it can be said the movie will do better in the afternoon and evening shows. While the other release of the weekend, Thor- Ragnorak opened with a good occupancy of 30% -35%.
The reason behind the slow start of Ittefaq can be that the suspense thrillers generally have limitations as far as box office prospects are concerned. The film which is a remake of 1969 film directed by Yash Chopra by the same name is also being helmed by the late director’s nephew Abhay Chopra.
