The film faced a big box office clash with Tiger Shroff’s action movie Baaghi 4. Baaghi 4 is a commercial film for the masses, while The Bengal Files is a serious socio-political drama. This clash has definitely affected the screen count and footfalls for The Bengal Files. Hollywood biggie The Conjuring Last Rites dominating box office on day one against all new releases.
There was a lot of uproar at the trailer launch event in Kolkata last month. Vivek Agnihotri is being accused of many things. Amidst controversies, this film has been released in theaters on 5th September.
The Bengal Files Takes Poor Start
The film The Bengal Files starring Mithun Chakraborty, Pallavi Joshi, Simrat Kaur, Anupam Kher, Darshan Kumar, Saswat Chatterjee and Namashi Chakraborty has had a slow start at the box office. Film collected 1.75 crore net on day one and failed to grow big on day two as it collected 2.15 crore net. Film added equally poor 2.60 crore net on Sunday.
Film has 3 – day total of 6.50 crore net and it needs big hold over the weekdays in order to have some sort of respectable number. Anything below 25 crore net lifetime means washout result for the film at box office.
