Phule, starring Pratik Gandhi and Patralekha in the lead roles, failed to make an impact at the Indian box office during its opening weekend. In the pre-release stage, there was no hype at all but it was expected that with positive word-of-mouth, it would make healthy gains after a dismal start. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen, resulting in a total of less than 2 crores in the first 3 days. Keep reading for a detailed collection report!
Reception of the film
Directed by Anant Mahadevan, the Bollywood biographical drama theatrically released on April 25. Based on the lives and contributions of Jyotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule, the film opened to mostly decent reviews from critics. Even among the audience, word-of-mouth is favorable. However, it has failed to reach a wider audience, at least during the first weekend.
Phule debuts with a poor total!
Phule registered a dismal start of 15 lakh. On the second day, there was a jump but it was of no use as just 30 lakh came in. It was followed by another jump of up to 60 lakh on Sunday, on day 3. So, it was a complete flop show for the film.
