After a dull opening, Arjun Rampal’s Daddy is going to have a crucial week ahead. It collected a total of Rs. 1.30 crores on Friday, failing miserably in front of other releases. On the other hand, Poster Boys featuring Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol did a better job at impressing a lot of fans, as its collection was around Rs 1.80 crores on Friday. But both the films have to show better numbers in the coming days in order to avoid being a flop.
Helmed by Ashim Ahluwalia, Daddy, also featuring South Indian actor Aishwarya Rajesh, is the story of underworld mafia Arun Gawli. Talking of Daddy’s performance, trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote, “This Friday is no exception… #PosterBoys, #Daddy, other new films start slow… Here’s hoping there’s a +ve turnaround before day ends.” He also said, “BO following similar pattern for *most* new films… Fri morning/noon = lukewarm… Biz picks up towards evening if film rich in merits…”
Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta wrote in her review of Daddy, “Daddy tells the story of a man who is, in equal measure, fascinating and repellant. Arun Gawli, son of a jobless mill worker, sets himself on the path to gangsterdom, becoming a larger-than-life persona, worshipped and feared by his constituency.”
In Assam, this week is only for the Assamese movie Mission China. Many audience from Assam has not taken Daddy for a first watch. Many halls are not planning to put a single screen for Daddy. Both the films are released on the same date but the Assamese movie has taken a lead from the perspective of Assam or locality.
