Mumbai:
Bollywood
movie
Zilla
Ghaziabad
has
done
a
decent
collection
at
the
Indian
Box
Office
in
the
first
weekend.
But
the
Sanjay
Dutt,
Vivek
Oberoi
and
Arsad
Warsi
starrer
has
failed
to
beat
another
new
release
Kai
Po
Che
starring
new
comers
like
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
and
Rajkumar
Yadav
in
leads.
It
has
landed
in
the
second
place,
while
the
latter
topped
the
collection
chart.
Zilla
Ghaziabad,
which
released
in
a
large
number
of
theatres
on
February
22,
registered
very
good
occupancy
in
single
screens
across
the
country
on
Friday,
while
it
had
very
low
response
in
multiplexes.
Overall,
the
movie
has
performed
very
well
in
mass
circuits
like
Bihar,
CP,
CI,
UP
and
Rajasthan.
The
Anand
Kumar
directed
flick
was
expected
to
show
a
big
jump
on
Saturday.
Instead
of
going
upwards,
Zilla
Ghaziabad
witnessed
decline
in
its
business
on
the
second
day.
And
on
Sunday,
the
business
of
the
movie
went
up,
but
it
was
below
the
expected
mark.
It
has
collected
Rs
10.75
crores
nett
at
the
domestic
Box
Office
in
the
first
weekend.
Its
breakup
is
Rs
3.50
cr
on
Fri,
Rs
3.25
cr
on
Sat
and
Rs
4
cr
on
Sun.
However,
Zilla
Ghaziabad
was
a
most-awaited
action
entertainer
of
the
year
2012.
The
movie
boasts
of
popular
star
cast
and
its
makers
had
massive
promotions
for
it.
But
the
film
got
negative
reviews
from
the
film
critics.
Besides
this,
it
got
eclipsed
by
the
new
flick
Kai
Po
Che
wave
across
major
circuits.
Trade
experts
feel
that
these
two
reasons
cost
its
producers
a
lot.
