Thugs Of Hindostan China Box Office Day 1: Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan starrer magnum opus Thugs Of Hindostan, turned out to be a box office blunder and also gone down as one of the biggest disasters of Bollywood. Yesterday, the movie released in China and due to its malign reputation, it managed a dismal start at the China box office too.
Being the most expensive Bollywood movie ever, it incurred huge losses despite collecting a mere 145.29 crores in the domestic market. Now, as superstar Aamir Khan has a massive following in China, the makers were expecting a good chunk of profit from the territory but the opening day collections are surprisingly low.
Thugs Of Hindostan released on Friday, managed just $1.55 million (approx 10.75 crores) on its opening day, which also includes paid previews revenue. The numbers are very low when compared with Khan’s previous releases Secret Superstar ($6.89 million) and Dangal ($2.5 million). The figures are slightly better than Amitabh Bachchan-Rishi Kapoor starrer 102 Not Out ($1.22 million), which released a few weeks back in China.

The collections are expected to show a jump today, but it will be limited given the mixed leaning to the negative word-of-mouth.
Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh’s last release Thugs of Hindostan bombed at the Indian box office, leaving her heartbroken and sad.
