Box Office: Akshay Kumar’s ‘Holiday’ mints Rs. 12.18 cr on Friday Akshay Kumar’s latest release Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty opened to a decent enough start on Friday but needs to pick up on Saturday and Sunday to notch up a good first weekend.

The film, directed by A.R. Murugadoss and starring Sonakshi Sinha, opened to a rather slow start on Friday morning shows, but picked up in the evening to record the first day total of Rs. 12.18 crore net at the India box office, according to trade figures.

The film has fared well in Mumbai sector and is expected to perform well at single screens across India.

Movie Review: 'Holiday - A Solider Is Never Off Duty' is slick but overlong action thriller

Just for comparison, Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty is the fourth best opener of the year 2014. However, it is far from being the best opener for Akshay Kumar. His best opening film to date is Rowdy Rathore.

Given the film’s 12.18 crore opening, one expects it to mint close to Rs. 40 crore in its opening weekend.


The other release of the weekend, Filmistan flunked on Friday with just Rs. 51 lakhs in its kitty.

Among the last week’s releases, Kuku Mathur Ki Jhand Ho Gayi is a washout and Citylights too has flopped.

The coming week would see the release of Fugly and Machhli Jal Ki Rani Hai. The next big release would be Humshakals on June 20.

Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation

Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation: Film Review Thanks to a sharp script that springs a real surprise or two and a pace that never slackens, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation rates as the second-best of the numerous franchise titles of the summer, after Mad Max: Fury Road. Armed with an absorbing mystery plot that does more than just connect the dots between action set-pieces (the most outlandish of which is dispensed with in a Bond-like opener), writer-director Christopher McQuarrie maintains the uptick in M:I quality established by the last two entries, and should land this entry within the series' customary range of a half-billion bucks worldwide. Working with Tom Cruise for the fifth time (if you include his uncredited rewrite on the last M:I feature, Ghost Protocol), McQuarrie benefits dramatically from extending the IMF team's official ostracization to a point of total disenfranchisement from the American government; in an early scene, the CIA chief (Alec B...
