Dry spell at Box Office post Drishyam as All Is Well and Manjhi struggle

Two films All Is Well and Manjhi - The Mountain Man released on Friday, 21 August 2015. The two films had something in store for different sections of audiences and both the films belonged to a genre which requires tremendous word of mouth publicity to collect well at the Box Office.

On Friday, both the films opened to dismal numbers despite heavy promotional campaigns. While All Is Well collected Rs 2.90 crore on its opening day, Manjhi - The Mountain Man racked Rs 1.40 crore on its opening days.

The films experienced a jump on Saturday, but that was a routine jump which most films witness after Saturday evening shows. All Is Well collected Rs 3.98 crore while Manjhi - The Mountain Man jumped to Rs 2.25 crore.

Despite coming from the director of Oh My God, All Is Well did not get the kind of reviews expected which has restrained the film from huge jumps. On Day 3, All Is Well collected Rs 5.03 crore at the Box Office, which is good if you compare it with the Day 1 figures. However, the opening day of the film gave it no chance to emerge a success.

Made on a tight budget of 28 crore (7 crore print and publicity) the film might break even for the producers due to income from ancillary sources (Satellite Rights, Music Rights), but the distributors of the film will entail losses.

On the other hand, Manjhi - The Mountain Man showed a limited growth on Sunday by collecting Rs 2.70 crore.

The three day total of All Is Well stands onto Rs 11.91 crore while Manjhi - The Mountain Man stands at Rs 6.45 crore.

Weekday trends will decide the fate of the both the films.
