After receiving mixed reviews from the audience and critics alike, Bhanu Pratap Singh’s directorial Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship starring Vicky Kaushal has opened to a decent start at the box office. According to a trade website, the film has garnered Rs 5 crore on its first Friday. Although it could not surpass Vicky’s last year’s release URI: The Surgical Strike’s Day 1 collection. URI had collected Rs 8.20 crore on its first day.
Although’s Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship’s box office collection is decent, given that it released on a partial holiday of Mahashivratri it could have fetched more moolah. However, the film has not worked very well in the North multiplexes. The film also stars Bhumi Pednekar in a cameo appearance.
#Bhoot opens on expected lines... The genre has its loyal audience in mass pockets + with strong title-value, should’ve opened to higher numbers... #MahaShivratri partial holiday also contribute to its total... Needs to increase speed on Day 2 and 3... Fri 5.10 cr. #India biz.
