Box Office: ‘Rangreza’ & ‘Arth’ starts disappoint

Pakistani releases ‘Rangreza’ and ‘Arth’ have had disappointed starts at the box office, according to a report.

Box Office Detail reports that ‘Rangreza’ clocked up Rs. 1.78 crore approx between Thursday and Sunday worldwide. ‘Arth’ meanwhile managed to garner Rs. 1.32 crore during Friday to Sunday. The collections seem to be much lower than expectations considering the Christmas holidays. Numbers are expected to increase during the Christmas break but so far, if these figures are to be believed, then surely ‘Rangreza’, which has spent oodles of monies on marketing, will be in the red.
