Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar Box Office Day 3: Fails To Bring In Audiences

Image
  Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar would primarily be a one week runner. Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar couldn’t generally register footfalls over the opening weekend and that didn’t quite come as surprising as the overall release too was such that it didn’t quite warrant any promising numbers.

There was no pre-release hype whatsoever and with the release too being sparse as Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar played at just a few screens and shows, the indications were quite clear that this would basically be a one week run before it makes it to the OTT and satellite medium. Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar has remained well under the 1 crore mark following the opening weekend and while the official numbers are yet to be declared, indications are that the Dibakar Banerjee produced and directed affair has collected in 50-70 lacs range. This is way too low for a film with credentials that comprise Arjun Kapoor and P...
