How the taste of Bollywood audience has changed can be understood from Ajay Devgan’s latest film ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’. Ajay’s new film with Tabu released in theatres on Friday and the audience has been left yearning for it in the first weekend itself. The distributors of the film and the theatre owners showing it must be sweating thinking about what will happen to this film on Monday.
Along with ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’, Janhvi Kapoor’s film ‘Uljh’ was also released in theatres. Usually two films released simultaneously fight to earn better or become a hit at the box office. But Ajay and Janhvi’s films seemed to be competing with each other to become a bigger flop.
The magic of the box office this weekend was such that both the Hindi films did not collect as much in the weekend as the Hollywood film ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ did on the 10th day of its release.

Ajay’s film sank in the first weekend itself
‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’ started in such a way on Friday that it was sure to be a flop. According to Saknilk, the film opened with 1.85 crores on the first day. With a slight jump on Saturday, the film collected 2.15 crores and 2.75 crores on Sunday. Ajay’s film collected a total of 6.75 crores in the first weekend.
How big a flop ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’ is going to be in Ajay’s career can be gauged from his past records. The flop film ‘Halla Bol’ which came in 2008 is the last film of Ajay’s career whose weekend collection was less than 7 crores. That means ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’ is going to be the biggest flop among his flop films.

Marvel Cinematic Universe’s film ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ was released on 26 July. ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ has revived the fading popularity of Marvel films in India. The film, which brought together two very popular characters of this universe, collected Rs 90 crore in India in the first week itself.
Its second week started from Friday and the film once again gathered crowds in the theatres in the new weekend. ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’, which earned around Rs 66 crore in the first weekend, has earned Rs 19.50 crore in the second weekend. The film’s collection in India has now exceeded Rs 109 crore.
On the 10th day i.e. Sunday, the Hollywood film ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ collected Rs 8 crore. This figure is bigger than the weekend collection of both the Hindi releases of this week, ‘Uljh’ and ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’.
The condition of two new films released simultaneously from Bollywood at the box office has left the public with no special options. Now the crowd in the theatres will be seen only on 15th August. On this day ‘Stree 2’, ‘Khel Khel Mein’ and ‘Veda’ are releasing simultaneously.
