Both 'Daawat-e-Ishq' and 'Khoobsurat' have not lived up to industry expectations
'Khoobsurat'
In its first weekend, Daawat-e-Ishq has collected Rs 13.75 crore while Khoobsurat's collections stand at Rs 11.5 crore.
'Khoobsurat'
Trade analyst Rajesh Thadani says that the collection of the former was higher than that of Khoobsurat in the first two days. "It also had an advantage in that it had a higher screen count. But Khoobsurat saw a jump in its collection on Sunday.'' Vishal Anand of Fun Cinemas says that the food yatra that Daawat-e-Ishq's cast went on has helped the film fare better.
Trade analysts are hoping that both films will do better in the coming week. Trade analyst Amod Mehra says, "Both films received a cold response. On Saturday, Khoobsurat clocked good numbers, but yes, it's still less than what was expected."
