Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer The Buckingham Murders registered marginal growth on the second day, however it turned out to be a disappointment. The Hansal Mehta directed murder mystery managed to earn only Rs 1.55 crore on its first Saturday after a dull opening of Rs 1.10 crore at the Indian box office.
Kareena Kapoor Khan’s The Buckingham Murders jumps 40% after a dull opening
Buckingham Murders has been released on limited screens in two audio formats – Hindi and Hinglish, keeping in mind its niche audience in urban areas. However, the response has not been as per expectations. The film could only register a marginal jump of 40% on its second day and its total box office collection in two days stood at Rs 2.65 crore domestically.
It is expected to earn around Rs 4.50 crore in its first weekend, which is not a good report for the Kareena Kapoor starrer. The new weekend release should have outperformed the re-released film Tumbbad, but the opposite is the case. The other big competitor for Hansal Mehta’s film is Stree 2, which is still the number 1 choice among moviegoers.
Positive word of mouth and positive response from the audience may boost its business further. Though the film did not do well at the box office, such a passion project got approved only out of the love for the art. We can only hope for a good non-theatrical deal that can recover the cost of its production.
Here is the daily box office collection of Buckingham Murders in India
| Day | Bharat Net Collection |
|---|---|
| 1 | Rs 1.10 crore |
| 2 | Rs 1.55 crore |
| Total | ₹ 2.65 crore in 2 days in India |
