Yash Raj films latest offering "Kill DIl" seems to have comprehensively missed the mark despite essentially being a film about hit men and their lives and times.......
This much awaited romantic thriller which had been touted as matinee idol Govinda's comeback and unequivocal answer to the legions of critics and naysayers who had written him off as a "has been" simply failed to set the cash registers ringing and only ended up garnering a measly Rs. 7.25 crore on the day of it's release.......
With critics unanimously panning the film and audiences failing to warm up to it; trade pundits have more or less sounded the death knell and opined that the opening weekend's collections might be far more depressing and even plummet further...........
Kill Dil was reportedly made at a reported cost of Rs. 45- 50 crore and the producers might just about end up covering their production cost and that too primarily on account of the prices at which the television; overseas and internet rights were sold; according to the film industry's Bible; Geeta and Quran "Trade Guide"..........
Despite bravura performances from teen idol Ranveer Singh and evergreen matinee idol Govinda; this Shaad Ali flick simply did not strike the right chords with a majority of it's audiences and left a significant majority of them shaking their noggin's in sheer frustration and consternation.........
Unless the box office collections show a marked improvement from the second day onwards; Kill Dil might end up achieving the dubious distinction of being the "floppiest" film of 2014 to have emerged from the Yash Raj film stables and do significant damage to Ranveer Singh's standing as a dependable star capable of drawing in the audiences in droves on the sheer dint of his quirky and "hatke" histrionics........
With the Saif Ali Khan; Govinda; Kalki Koechlin; Ileana D'Cruz starrer "Happy Ending" gracing the screens on November 21; alas the writing seems to be on the wall in eastman colour as far as the fate of Kill Dil at the unforgiving ticket window is concerned..........
