New Delhi: Ranbir Kapoor-Jacqueline Fernandez-Arjun Rampal starrer Roy has collected impressive Rs 21.56 cr in just two days of its release. The movie which however, got bashing by critics for its slow pace has is the biggest opener of the year till date at box office.
The movie on Friday collected Rs 10.40 cr thereby leaving behind Akshay Kumar starrer ‘BABY' which made Rs 9.3 cr on Day 1.
Further witnessing a slight growth on Valentine's Day, Roy fetched Rs 11.16 cr taking its two days total to Rs 21.56 cr nett in India.
“Roy Fri 10.40 cr, Sat 11.16 cr. Total: ₹ 21.56 cr. India biz”, tweets trade analyst and film critic Taran Adarsh.
Despite now claiming the biggest opener of the year tag, its collection is lesser than its three lead stars' earlier individual flicks. While Ranbir's last release Besharam garnered Rs 20 cr on its opening day, Jacqueline Fernandez ‘Kick' minted 26.14 cr on the day of its release and Arjun Rampal's Satyagraha collected Rs 12 cr nett in India.
Roy, considering the massive buzz it had prior its release, collected much lesser than expected. Today, however being a Sunday, the movie just might not be able to witness further growth due to India-Pak cricket match which will occupy most part of the day keeping viewers glued to their television screens.
But theatres and multiplexes should witness footfalls in the evening shows for Roy.
