Box Office: UNEXPECTED Drop In Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale First Monday Collection

Dilwale-123[tps_footer]Bollywood film ‘Dilwale’ starring Shah Rukh Khan had a good weekend but has dropped lower than expected on first Monday. The film had a splendid growth on Sunday which leads the Monday drop of 55% approx as a disappointment. Since ‘Dilwale’ is sharing the business with ‘Bajirao Mastani’, it has to be very steady over the weekdays to cover up for the lost business over the weekend. With such a huge drop it is hard to say if any miraculous numbers can be expected. The film collected Rs. 9.5 crores net approx (Rs. 95 million) on its first Monday which is very less compared to the Sunday collection.
