Bollywood trade analyst, Taran Adarsh reported that the Hrithik Roshan starrer Super 30 has been performing well at the box office and has collected Rs 57.38 crore since it hit theatres on Friday.
“Super 30 is steady at multiplexes of urban centres (Day 4), which is driving its biz… Mass circuits remain ordinary/weak… Eyes Rs. 75 cr [+/-] total in Week 1… Fri 11.83 cr, Sat 18.19 cr, Sun 20.74 cr, Mon 6.92 cr. Total: Rs. 57.68 cr. India biz (sic),” tweeted Adarsh.
However, the trade analyst cautioned that the release of Disney’s The Lion King could change the fate of Super 30.
“Super 30 faces the much-hyped Hollywood biggie The Lion King on Fri [19 July 2019]… Will Super 30 dominate the marketplace or will the Hollywood biggie (with voice over of SRK and Aryan Khan) lead the race?” he tweeted.
In related news, The Times of India reports that the Bihar government has declared Super 30 tax-free. The film is based on the life of Anand Kumar who tutors underprivileged children. Following the #MeToo movement last year, the film had found itself in hot water after director Vikas Bahl was accused of inappropriate conduct. For more on that, click here.
