TOH box-office collection: Downfall continues on day 4, real test begins from Monday
Mumbai: Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan starrer Thugs of Hindostan became the fastest 100 crore club Bollywood film but it doesn’t have much to boast about since it witnessed the major downfall on the fourth consecutive day. The YRF film received severe backlash from the critics and the word-of-mouth by the audiences is also on the low side.
According to noted trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Thugs Of Hindostan has collected Rs 17.25 crore net on Sunday making a close total of Rs 123 crore net in its extended four day weekend.
