Sunny Deol’s recent release, Batwara 1947, has had a slower start than expected at the box office. The partition drama, which was released over the Independence Day weekend, was expected to make a splash at the box office. However, the Rajkumar Santoshi directorial saw a poor response at the box office and also lost the clash to Emraan Hashmi’s nostalgia-driven film Awarapan 2. However, amid this, Preity Zinta, who made her comeback, is all set to lose out on a major box-office milestone.
How Much Did Batwara 1947 earn in 14 days at the box office?
On its second Thursday, the film earned 0.03 crore, which was a major dip for a fil starring Sunny Deol in the lead. Even more concerning is that the film lost 95% of its shows to Toxic from Wednesday. The sharp decline in cinema counts indicates a lack of demand for the Sunny Deol-starrer in the country. Meanwhile, Toxic’s Hindi version has taken the country by storm with its strong box-office performance.
The net total of Batwara 1947 currently stands at 37.8 crore, which equals 44.6 crore gross in India. Overseas, the film has collected just 9.05 crore so far, which brings the worldwide total to 53.65 crore.
