Covering Bollywood and the Hindi Cinema

Let’s see how Omkara faired at the International Box-Office. The verdict is in and unfortunately for Bhardawaj the film failed to set the international BO ablaze. In the U.K and , the movie has just been an average and was found in the bottom of the charts. The film has collected over £ 91,294 [approx. Rs. 79.39 lacs] on 30 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 3,043. This is far from the predicted figures as the makers were confident of the movie fetching about £ 150,000 + in its opening weekend in U.K. and Aus. $ 60,000 + in its opening weekend in Australia. So looks like the NRI’s don’t dig Shakespeare much!
