- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,June 15 2010]
At times when collections till Sunday gave license to hold success parties in Bollywood, Prakash JhaÂs ÂRaajneeti is still ruling and the roars of its success echoing in its second week also.
Thanks to its aggressive promotion, superb acting by the strong lead and desi emotions, audience has given a mandate in favour of UTVÂs political drama ÂRaajneeti helmed by Prakash Jha.
JhaÂs root in helming flicks involving the netas and the goons like ÂGangajal and ÂAprahan and the drought of real desi masala for the long waiting hungry souls of Bollywood and the disappointment from ÂKites has resulted in the audience swing towards the flick which was in news right from the day of its announcement.
The movie did net business of approximately Rs 160 million (Rs 16 crore) over the second weekend in India. This is about 53 per cent less than its net box office collections of Rs 340 million (Rs 34 crore) in the opening weekend.
RaajneetiÂs second weekend figures are third best ever after Â3 Idiots (Rs 350 million) and ÂGhajini (Rs 180 million).
RaajneetiÂs total net collections after 10 days stands at approximately Rs 700 million (Rs 70 crore).
The movie opened fantastically (Friday 10.5 cr. nett, Saturday 11 cr. nett, Sunday 12.5 cr. nett, Monday 6.25 cr. Nett) is coming next to Â3 IdiotsÂ.
The film based in M.P. is getting tremendous appreciation from the Hindi speaking belts and from Delhi U.P itself its being said to fetch around 12-15 crores net alone from this territory and itÂs a major achievement. With no competition till the date of the release of Abhishek, Aishwarya ÂRaavan coming on June 18, ÂRaajneeti enjoys maximum reach.
At last, Bollywood got a movie thatÂs getting accepted both in plexes and single screens and it delivered to the audience what it promised.
