It's
been
a
rough
ride
for
Kidnap
and
Drona
internationally
too.
While
Kidnap
has
at
least
notched
up
decent
numbers
in
U.K.,
Drona
is
an
unmitigated
disaster...
New
release
Hello
hasn't
found
many
takers
either.
While
the
U.K.
numbers
are
below
average,
the
film
has
met
with
a
lukewarm
response
in
U.S.
too.
