Thappad Box Office: With Thappad, the duo of director Anubhav Sinha and Taapsee Pannu is once again here to entice the audience with a hard-hitting flick, after Mulk. Although the film recorded a low occupancy for the morning shows across the country, the rave reviews are expected to do the trick for evening and night shows.
Earlier, Thappad was predicted to earn around 4 crores on opening day, slightly lower than Taapsee’s Pink (4.32 crores), but highly positive reception might provide a much-needed push in the numbers. The first target would be to cross another women-centric film of the year, Deepika Padukone’s Chhapaak, on an opening day.
