The
two
new
releases,
Marigold
and
Buddha
Mar
Gaya,
have
had
a
dismal
opening
weekend
in
the
key
markets.
Not
much
was
expected
from
Buddha
Mar
Gaya,
since
it's
not
the
film
Overseas
audiences
usually
take
to,
but
Marigold
has
proved
a
supreme
disaster.
The
film
has
opened
to
shockingly
low
numbers,
despite
Salman
Khan's
star
presence.
Meanwhile,
Aishwarya
Bachchan's
international
project,
The
Last
Legion,
co-starring
Colin
Firth
and
Ben
Kingsley,
released
extensively
in
the
U.S.
last
Friday
[2002
screens],
has
collected
a
paltry
$
2.7
million
in
its
opening
weekend.
