First
week
collections
of
Showbiz
are
out
and
the
numbers
pretty
much
tell
the
sorry
tale
of
the
film.
So
embarrassing
are
the
film's
collections
that
the
film
hasn't
survived
to
see
the
light
of
the
day
in
its
second
week.
Let
aside
crores,
the
film
hasn't
even
touched
the
1
lakh
mark
in
the
biggest
of
cities
(except
for
a
couple
of
them)
while
from
the
remaining
centers,
collections
range
from
a
few
hundreds
to
paltry
thousands.
While
Dhokha
stood
as
one
of
the
biggest
ever
box
office
disasters
for
the
Bhatts
with
mere
60
lakhs
off
coming
from
the
first
week,
Showbiz
is
expected
to
fold
up
at
around
25%
of
this
figure,
hence
proving
to
be
a
huge
setback
for
Vishesh
Films.
Now
2008
starts
off
as
an
important
year
for
Mukesh
Bhatt
and
Mahesh
Bhatt
who
would
be
banking
on
Emraan
Hashmi
with
the
release
of
Jannat.
