What hasn’t happened in the Hindi Cinema trade is happening. Is the trend changing? Or is it just that you cannot keep a good film down? Akshay Kumar starrer Khel Khel Mein shows a 100% jump.
After being blown away in the Stree 2 onslaught on the Independence Day weekend, the trade understandably decided to write off Khel Khel Mein.
The audience though seems to have other ideas. In an event that hasn’t happened in a long time, Khel Khel Mein recorded a 100% jump from its second Friday number on Saturday.
With limited shows, the volume isn’t highly agreed, but the trend that it’s showing on its second Sunday now seems like the trade will have to sit up and take notice.
The film is by no means showing signs of getting done yet. Sleeper hits seemed to have vanished since the advent of the weekend hoopla culture. If anything Khel Khel Mein however is displaying the “chaal of a sleeper hit, without doubt.
