Dobaaraa Day 1 Box Office Collection | Dobaaraa Friday Box Office Collection

After
Aamir
Khan’s

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
and
Akshay
Kumar’s

Raksha
Bandhan
failed
to
make
a
mark
at
the
box
office,
Taapsee
Pannu-starrer

Dobaaraa
arrived
in
cinema
halls
on
Friday
(August
19).

While
the
film
received
glowing
reviews
from
the
critics,
it
failed
to
generate
curiosity
among
the
audience.
Speaking
about
its
first
day
box
office,
early
trends
suggest
that
the
film
helmed
by
Anurag
Kashyap,
registered
only
2%
to
3%
occupancy
and
collected
in
the
range
of
Rs
60-70
lakhs.

Further,
there
were
also
reports
doing
the
rounds
in
the
media
that
several
early
shows
of
the
film
were
cancelled
due
to
the
lack
of
occupancy.

Trade
analyst
Sumit
Kadel
took
to
his
Twitter
handle
and
wrote,
“#Dobaaraa
is
off
to
a
DISASTROUS
start
at
the
box
office,
film
is
registering
merely
2-3%
occupancy
while
many
early
shows
are
getting
canceled
due
to
NO
AUDIENCE.”

Prior
the
film’s
release,
the
social
media
was
abuzz
with
#BoycottDobaaraa
trends.
Later,
in
an
interview,
Taapsee
and
Anurag
had
joked
that
even
they
wish
to
get
boycotted
just
like
Aamir
Khan’s

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
and
Akshay
Kumar’s

Raksha
Bandhan.

In
an
interview
with
Pinkvilla,
Anurag
Kashyap
had
reacted
to
these
boycott
trends
and
said,
“I
am
used
to
it.
It
affects
those
who’s
films
do
over
Rs.
100
Crore.
My
films
have
not
even
gone
beyond
Rs.
32
crore.
For
me,
it
is
nothing
new.
I
have
been
boycotted
since
the
time
Twitter
started.
Ask
me
questions
that
affect
me.”

Talking
about

Dobaaraa,
the
film
is
an
official
remake
of
the
Spanish
film

Mirage.
The
Anurag
Kashyap-directorial
revolves
around
a
woman
who
during
a
geomagnetic
storm,
ends
up
changing
her
past,
which
in
turn
alters
her
present
as
well.
