‘A Gentleman’ drops further, it’s a disaster

Sidharth Malhotra and Jacqueline Fernandez-starrer ‘A Gentleman’ has turned out to be a big disaster at the box office. The movie which is made with a budget of Rs 50 crore took a very slow start at the box office. And thanks to mixed reviews, it was not expected to show a growth.

In its first weekend, the movie collected, Rs 12.25 crore which is very bad for a movie with such a high budget. The film would have been in the safe zone if it maintained well, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. The movie on Monday collected Rs 1.50 crore and on Tuesday the collection Rs 1.15 crore, taking the five day total to Rs 14.90 crore.

According to makers, the film had already collected Rs 30 crore through satellite, and music rights, and digital media. However, it looks like it will be difficult for the film to even collect Rs 20 crore in its lifetime run. (Also Read: A Gentleman Movie Review: Strong action loses its way amid ill-conceived plot)

Sidharth and Jacqueline, both needed a hit as their previous films ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ and ‘A Flying Jatt’ respectively didn’t do well at the box office. However, thanks to ‘A Gentleman’ they have one more flop in their kitty. Now everything relies on their next releases which ‘Ittefaq’ for Sidharth and ‘Judwaa 2’ for Jacqueline.
