Is there yet another pan-India success story in the offering for a south film in the recent times? Well, if the trajectory so far for Kantara is any indication then it indeed looks like happening. The film started at Rs. 1.27 crores on Friday and grew up to Rs. 3.50 crores on Sunday, which is basically tripping up over the weekend.
When something like this happens, you know that the weekdays are going to be good as well and very likely; these would stay on to be over the Friday numbers eight till Thursday and then may be even the second Friday. Now that’s the kind of heartening things that you want to witness week after week when collections of deserving films do see a rise with audience appreciation setting in to the fullest.
So far, Kantara (Hindi) has collected Rs. 7.52 crores and the first week should be in excess of Rs. 15 crores. Once that happens, a lifetime of Rs. 25 crores is definitely on the cards, which means PS-1 (Hindi) could well be surpassed comfortably. That said, the manner in which the film has gained momentum, it could actually go anywhere.
