The big debate of having two big banner films clash over the Diwali weekend seems to have fizzled out with the weekly box office outcome.
Unlike, the general interpretation, that one film may eat up into the films revenues, for once, we are seeing parallel income for both the mega star movies – Karan Johar’s ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ (ADHM) and Ajay Devgn’s home production ‘Shivaay’, so what if ADHM holds a marginal lead.
After controversies and suspense about the release of ADHM, Karan Johar’s one-sided love affair movie has been appreciated by the audiences world over. For the record, ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ has managed to garner Rs 74.01 crore from the box offices and is at the second spot in terms of highest weekly collection after Sultan.
