Lakshya
Raj
Anand's
directorial
debut
Attack
featuring
John
Abraham,
Rakul
Preet
Singh
and
Jacqueline
Fernandez,
opened
to
mixed
reviews
from
the
critics.
The
film
which
has
John
essaying
the
role
of
a
super
soldier,
has
failed
to
strike
a
chord
with
the
audience
and
is
having
a
dismal
run
at
the
ticket
windows.
After
recording
a
low-opening
on
its
first
day
of
release,
the
sci-fi
action
thriller
fell
short
of
registering
a
phenomal
growth
over
the
weekend.
Further,
the
business
of
the
John
Abraham-starrer
was
majorly
impacted
by
SS
Rajamouli's
historical
action
drama
RRR
starring
Ram
Charan
and
Jr
NTR
in
leading
roles.
John
Abraham's
Attack
minted
an
opening
collection
of
Rs
3.51
Crore
which
was
followed
by
Rs
3.75
Crore
on
Saturday
and
Rs
4.24
Crore
on
Sunday.
The
total
three-day
box
office
collection
now
stands
at
Rs
11.51
Crore.
Trade
analyst
Taran
Adarsh
took

his
Twitter
handle
and
posted,
"#Attack
is
below
the
mark...
No
major
growth
/
jump
on
Day
2
and
3
is
disappointing...
The
#RRR
wave
has
also
impacted
its
prospects
in
mass
sectors...

On
the
other
hand,
SS
Rajamouli's
RRR
continues
to
smash
records
at
the
box
office.
The
Hindi
version
of
the
Ram
Charan-Jr
NTR
starrer
is
heading
towards
the
Rs
200-Crore
mark.
The
film
has
collected
Rs
184.59
Crore
so
far.
Earlier,
before
the
theatrical
release
of
Attack,
John
had
talked
about
his
film
competing
with
RRR
at
the
box
office.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"We've
been
promised
a
certain
number
of
screen,
we
have
been
assured
by
our
partners
that
we
will
get
good
screening.
I
have
a
lot
of
respect
for
Rajamouli
sir
and
his
kind
of
cinema,
but
we
also
have
a
lot
of
respect
for
what
we
have
done.
We
are
definitely
not
number
two
to
anyone".
