BO update: ‘Holiday’ opens well, ‘Filmistaan’ slow!

It's the first Friday after the IPL 2014 and the season of biggies has commenced. The much-awaited Akshay - Sonakshi starrer HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY has opened well, with the strong word of mouth indicating a wonderful total at the end of Day 1. Given the merits of the film, this A.R. Murugadoss-directed film should collect impressive numbers at single screens and plexes, both.

On the other hand, FILMISTAAN has embarked on a dull start, but, in any case, the film was never expected to open with a bang. Riding on tremendous critical acclaim and bestowed with awards, this massively entertaining film is expected to pick up with word of mouth over the weekend.
