Jazbaa Box Office Report/Review/Earnings: Slow Start at BO

This week we see the release of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback film JAZBAA that also features Irrfan Khan. Jazbaa had a slow start of around 20% and will be totally dependent on word of mouth.

It will be about how much the film can grow in the evening shows and then the all important follow up on Saturday. The Sanjay Gupta directed Jazbaa does face competition from the Hollywood release THE WALK that has been receiving glowing reviews across the seas. In fact despite THE WALK featuring limited morning shows, it has garnered a 30% occupancy rate during morning.

On the whole, with mixed responses from the critics, Jazbaa has a slow start. However, the film will have to rely on strong word of mouth, while the 3D marvel THE WALK is expected to grow over evening and night shows. However the other English release PAN, that features THE WOLVERINE actor Huge Jackman, that caters to mainly kids is expected to be a slow earner.

The last Aishwarya Rai film was Guzaarish released in 2010 which opened to 3.82 crore nett. The highest is Dhoom 2 in 2006 which had an opening day of 5.85 crore nett.

The collections of Singh Is Bling are down heavily and looks that North India will be contributing 50% of all India in week two. Talvar has maintained very well and has increased shows in most of the theatres in the metros.

There has been a lot of talk surrounding it with a lot of expectations being attached to the film.
