Varun Dhawan-starrer “Main Tera Hero” has earned over Rs.20
crore in its opening weekend.
The entertainer has collected a whopping net amount of
Rs.22.73 crore in its opening weekend, said a statement.
Directed by David Dhawan and produced by Balaji Motion
Pictures, actor Tusshar Kapoor is happy with the figures as the movie performed
well despite the World Twenty20 final between India and Sri Lanka in Bangladesh
April 6.
It is a mix of the commercial content, Varun's screen
presence and the movie's promotions that have worked in favour of the
entertainer, says an expert.
“So, ‘Main Tera Hero’ withstood the opposition of the two big
T20 World Cup matches (with India playing) to safely collect a Rs.20 crore+
weekend, cheers,” Tusshar, the brother of producer Ekta Kapoor, tweeted.
Released in approximately 2,500 screens, the movie was made
under a budget of around Rs.50 crore.
“‘Main Tera Hero’ is more commercial than ‘Jal’, which also
released on April 4. It’s got the combination of Varun and David and since it
is produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, it is well promoted,” Rajesh Thadani of
Multimedia Combines told IANS.
“Jal” on the other hand, is directed by first-timer Girish
Malik and stars Purab Kohli as the lead actor.
“It is for a select audience, so it earned less than Rs.50
lakh in three days,” said Thadani.
