If only good intentions could make a good movie, Vibhu Puri’s Hawaizaada would have been a super success. But sadly the Ayushmann Khurrana, Pallavi Sharda and Mithun Chakravorthy starrer has not exatly imprrsed the audiences. Though critics agree that the starcast of this movie has shown flashes of sincerity with their craft, the sloppy screenplay and haphazard direction has failed the effort. Blame it on the movie’s poor marketing strategy and oh-so-average music, Hawaizaada has managed to net in Rs 75 lakhs only, as far at the opening day figures are concerned.
The average occupancy on the first day across the country was 40-60 per cent, confirm the sources. It is expected that only one fact that could help in the favour of this movie is that cinegoers don’t have many choices. Trade Pundit had expected that this film will rake Rs 8 to Rs 12 crore but going by the response it looks difficult for the film to reach the mark on the first weekend.
Hawaizaada is based on the awe-inspiring story of Shivkar Talpade who had crafted the world’s first aircraft back in 1895. But the figures at the BO prove that the movie struggled to take off at the collection centers.
