Box Office: Selfiee First Saturday/Second Day Early Estimates

Mumbai, February 25 - Selfiee starring Akshay Kumar took one of the lowest openings ever featuring a major star, and there is no respite on the second day as well. The comedy-drama continues to struggle at the box office as early estimate collections suggest around 3.25-3.50 crores net on Saturday. This is probably the first time that the film has become a disaster at the box office so quickly. The film became a disaster before the day of its release only due to a lukewarm advance but the first-day collections sealed the fate of the film.

There will be growth on Sunday but the film is in a position where even 100% growth cannot stop it from becoming a disaster of epic proportions. It won't be surprising if the film finishes its first weekend around 10cr only or even lower than that when the least expectations were of a double-digit opening and here the film will struggle to hit that number in the first three days.



Akshay Kumar is one of the biggest stars of the Hindi film industry and even the naysayers will agree with that. He is a star with probably the most hit and successful films but he needs to reinvent himself now and cut down his films by at least 50%. A huge star like Akshay Kumar should not be doing these sorts of films because it does not justify the stature of a star. In a correct film, he can give the biggest of the stars a run for their money at the box office so there is no doubt about his potential.
