Mumbai:
Three
much-hyped
Hindi
movies
Ishkq
In
Paris
(IIP),
Hum
Hai
Raahi
Car
Ke
(HHRCK)
and
Zindagi
50:50,
which
have
hit
the
screens
across
the
country,
have
opened
to
lukewarm
response
at
the
Indian
Box
Office.
They
are
facing
tough
competition
from
the
Hollywood
film
Fast
&
Furious
6,
which
has
begun
with
an
earth-shattering
note.
Trade
experts
say
that
the
English
film
will
top
the
desi
collection
chart.
Ishkq
In
Paris,
Hum
Hai
Raahi
Car
Ke
and
Zindagi
50:50
are
among
the
highly-anticipated
Hindi
movies
of
2013.
Especially,
the
Preity
Zinta
starrer
was
expected
to
dominate
the
weekend
business.
But
it
has
registered
10%-15%
occupancy
in
the
morning
and
matinee
shows.
Remaining
two
movies
have
also
met
with
the
same
fate.
They
are
expected
to
pick
up
in
the
evening
and
night
shows.
Whereas
Fast
And
Furious
6,
the
latest
installment
in
Fast
And
Furious
franchise,
has
opened
to
overwhelming
response
in
paid
previews
in
Indian
on
Thursday.
It
is
surely
taking
a
toll
on
new
Hindi
releases
in
the
country.
It
has
had
65%-75%
occupancy
in
the
morning
and
matinee
shows
in
the
country
today
(Friday).
Its
business
is
likely
to
go
up
in
the
late
shows.
It
is
surely
going
to
be
the
biggest
Hollywood
opener
in
India.
