Sonchiriya FIRST DAY (Friday) Box Office Collection: Sushant-Bhumi's Film Gets A Poor Opening!
Despite positive word-of-mouth from most critics, Sonchiriya has failed to set the cash registers ringing at the box office. As per early estimates, Sonchiriya has managed to earn just Rs 1 crore
Along
with
Kartik
Aaryan-Kriti
Sanon's
Luka
Chuppi,
this
week
also
saw
the
release
of
Sushant
Singh
Rajput-Bhumi
Pednekar
starrer
Sonchiriya.
The
film
based
in
the
Chambal
ravines,
released
in
720
screens
in
India.
Despite
positive
word-of-mouth
from
most
critics,
the
film
has
failed
to
set
the
cash
registers
ringing
at
the
box
office.
Speaking
about
the
opening
day
collection,
trade
analyst
Taran
Adarsh
tweeted,
"#SonChiriya
opens
to
low
numbers,
since
the
screen
count
[720
screens]/shows
are
limited
and
also
because
it
caters
to
a
niche
audience...
Biz

Day

It
needs
to
be
seen
if
this
positive
reviews
translate
into
business
at
the
box
office
over
the
weekend.
Meanwhile,
here's
what
the
netizens
have
