Hollywood release Godzilla had a decent first weekend at the Box Office in India. The film collected 18 crores nett in merely three days. This is indeed a praiseworthy feat achieved by Godzilla as the flick performed much better than the Bollywood release The Xpose.
However, though the collections are higher than the Himesh Reshammiya starrer, this Hollywood flick earned much lesser than the recently released The Amaizng Spiderman 2. This Andrew Garfield starrer had made a whopping opening weekend business of 31.40 crores in India.

Godzilla being a reboot of its first instalment, had gathered much buzz over it. Performing mainly good in the urban centres, this film enjoyed a good footfall at multiplexes on the weekend. Surprisingly, the dubbed versions of Godzilla did not get as much responses as its English one. The dubbed versions were mainly received well at the single screen theatres.
A higher collection was expected on the weekend from the film, but the on going IPL tournament being in its final stretch affected its growth. Nevertheless, the movie has good chances to perform decently in the weekdays and come up with an above average 1st week total.

The Xpose picked up very well on its first Sunday at the Domestic Box Office. The film collected approx 4.25 crores nett on its third day, taking its opening weekend business to around 9.75 crores at the India box office, which is quite decent. Being an out an out masala entertainer, the film was received well in the mass centres. Also, the film benefited from the fact of being a sole Bollywood release this week.

Made on a modest budget of 15 crore (including P & A), according to makers they have already recovered enough amount from its Satellite sale, sale of their Music, and also from the Overseas Video, Home Video and other rights.

Thank God Baba! I was toh super scared jab I read in papers that Sid and Vidya ka break up jaisa hone wala hai. Vidya is like my daughter only and she is such a nice girl. But relationships ka what bharosa these days. Anything can happen no. Look at Duggu and his biwi. But when Vidya Balan clarified ki she and her pati are doing good, jaan mein jaan aayi.
Bhai, reports toh even I heard from my chelas that Sid is favoring some woman from his company a little zyada than needed. And Vidya could not hazam karo this which is why she apparently lost her thand and blasted Siddy a few days back. Vidya ke baare mein what ant shant rumors have been coming these days. Pehle toh people said she is pregnant. Then she walked out of Sujoy ki film citing health hassles and ab fight with Sid wali news. Grah-Nakshatra is just not in her favor, I will say. Haan, haan, she is saying it is all jhooth but can there be itna saara smoke with no fire, you only say.

But atleast deny karne se this is clear that she is trying at their rishta. Which marriage doesn’t have problems, but for the sukhi sansar you have to adjust and handle. I toh just hope whatever is wrong, Vidya-Sid fix it. With Bobby Jasoos on Vidya’s head, baba it is better na that she keeps calm and keep kaam se kaam for now.

With the underwhelming performances at the box office this weekend, it is Spidey ruling all the way. The film’s hindi version too is earning great moolah but the big chunk of the film’s income is coming primarily from the urban centres and multiplexes. On the last weekend of the second week, the film’s earnings will continue to soar. However, with the ongoing IPL matches, the attention has promptly shifted towards cricket, even for children who are the prime target audience of the film. The evening shows might drop but the morning and noon shows might see quantitative numbers flowing in.

The news of actress Deepika Padukone working with Salman Khan has been in the news for a while. But it obviously didn’t work out due to the actress’ extensive work commitments to other projects already. However, if reports of Bollywood insiders and a leading news daily is to be believed, The actress is all set to perform an item number in the Salman Khan starrer Kick. Though the actress hasn’t officially been roped in so far, a Bollywood insider close to Koimoi insisted that the actress has given a verbal nod to do an item song.
Though reports had earlier suggested that Padukone will be seen romancing Sallu Bhai in Sooraj Barjatya’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo but later Sonam Kapoor was confirmed as lead lady opposite Salman in the film.

The insider also informed Koimoi, that Kick has good chances of being delayed. The film is running nearly 40 days off schedule and though Salman is working incessantly to wrap it at the earliest so that the film can release by Eid, the chances of it seems grim as of now.
Khan has been untangled in too many issues lately and after the last hearing of his hit-and-run case with witnesses identifying the actor, it is indeed a testing time for him. The witnesses even suggested that Salman’s party had tried buying them off. Though the proceedings are still in order, if Kick gets delayed, the actor will witness a grave setback as Eid has been his lucky charm for years!
Kick is directed by Sajid Nadiadwala and will star Jacqueline Fernandez along with Randeep Hooda and Nawzuddin Siddiqui in lead roles.
