MUMBAI: This Friday had its own share of apprehensions. But in the bargain, the box-office had a satisfactory run as far as the earnings were concerned.

Shootout At Lokhandwala managed to rake in more than 75 to 85 per cent collections in most of the territories. In Bombay city and suburbs including Thane, the Sippys had reasons to rejoice. The film collected around Rs 42.1 million (Rs 4.21 crore) in this area alone.

On the other hand, Cheeni Kum, had a dull start at the box-office, but managed to garner good collections. It collected around 60 to 70 per cent all over. In Bombay, including Thane, thanks to the multiplex culture, the film grossed around Rs 21.1 million (Rs 2.11 crore) in its first week.

The multi-starrer Fool N Final, an action film blended with comedy, opened to mixed responses. The film seems to be inspired by a Hollywood film, Snatch. Director Ahmed Khan fails to deliver in spite of the huge cast and resources at his disposal. The main drawback is the lackluster story idea. The opening is average and the film is expected to do well in the interiors. Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd has released the film in the entire Bombay circuits with 108 prints.
