By 5th day, A Flying Jatt movie box office collections soar to Rs 31.95 cr as Tiger Shroff milks avatar USP

A Flying Jatt collection: Superheroes sell! And that too desi ones! With A Flying Jatt movie box office collections rising higher, Tiger Shroff, Jacqueline Fernandez and Nathan Jones have definitely created a strong foundation on which a number of new movies are bound to be done by Bollywood. Yes, Krrish was the first one that really started it off, and Shah Rukh Khan's Ra One was another, still, a pure and simple, living superhero is the Flying Jatt on the lines of Spider-Man, Superman, Iron Man, Capt America and others. No doubt the A Flying Jatt collections will never be great, but that they managed to get to where they are at the moment is massively significant and the credit goes to Tiger Shroff who managed to pull it off despite all the difficulties in picturising the same and actually making it believable - it has a uniqueness about it that is charming.

A Flying Jatt collection: So, how good is the movie actually. A Flying Jatt did not really get great credit from the critics. But that is not the be-all and end-all of the matter. The movie clicked with the people it was actually meant for and that was the school children and the youth. It was unfortunate that the timing was a bit off as the release came on a day that children have a holiday (Janmashtami), but this is an interactive fest where children get together from early morning and do their puja and get down to the business of putting up their own little shamianas and prettying them up in glitzy colors or in Dahi Handi preparations. Children just love this hands-on fest and cinemas would not be on their or their parents' minds. (Reuters)

A Flying Jatt collection: As expected, A Flying Jatt collection improved immediately thereafter and into the opening weekend. So, if on opening day (Thursday) the collection was Rs 7.10 cr, the next day (a working day) this fell to Rs 6 crore. However, on Saturday it jumped up to Rs 7.35 cr and on Sunday it soared magnificently to Rs 9 crore. (PTI)

A Flying Jatt collection: However, Monday was an unmitigated disaster as the A Flying Jatt collection plunged and managed to take in just Rs 2 crore. Overall, by fifth day (Monday), the take in the Indian market alone had risen as high as Rs 31.95 crore. And if you add the foreign collections and other miscellaneous items, the total comes to around Rs 45.72 cr. Surely, something for Tiger Shroff and company to jubilate about. (Twitter)

A Flying Jatt collection: Unfortunately, this will be more or less the end of the road for the A Flying Jatt collection. Whatever benefit it has been able to draw from its unique content and the extended weekend is now over and it will fade away before Friday's new releases hit the cinemas. (Twitter)
