' Aurangzeb ' by YRF was expected to take off with a healthy opening on its first day at the box-office. The rowdy movie starring striking Arjun Kapoor in a double role was anticipated to sustain at least 45% to 55% occupancy in multiplexes. The probable elements responsible for this might include middling music and nominal promotion without any hype or hoopla. The additional possible components hindering the race of ' Aurangzeb ' may be the earlier releases like ' Shootout At Wadala ' and ' Go Goa Gone ', which are yet preferred by the audience.
This hardcore crime-drama directed by Atul Sabharwal witnessed a mere 15% to 20% occupancy across the multiplexes. The film failed to set up a decent footing in morning shows as well as the scenario did not change to much extent in the evening shows too. ' Aurangzeb ' performed better in central and north India, while it could not much relish the viewers in prime regions like Maharashtra and Mysore.
Considering the early estimates, ' Aurangzeb ' should win at least 2.90 crore nett on its first day of release, albeit higher occupancy in late night shows might advance the figure.
Let's see how much the armed emperor ' Aurangzeb ' can conquer figures during the weekend. Hope, the viewers will enjoy seeing the action-flick ' Aurangzeb ' in single screens and multiplexes on its second and third day of release.
The other release on May 17 - ' I Don't Luv U ' could not delight the audience on big screen gaining approximately 5% occupancy in theatres. It was an entire catastrophe collecting less than 12-15 lakhs on its first day at the box-office.
