Kabzaa box office collection day 9: Kichcha Sudeep’s film struggles at theatres

By Prachi Arya:

The recent release Kabzaa, starring Kichcha Sudeep, Shriya Saran and Upendra in significant roles, has been struggling to get numbers at the box office. The movie that was mounted on a huge scale has fallen short of expectations. Despite being released in multiple languages and heavily promoted, the film has failed to get footfalls in theatres.

KABZAA BO COLLECTION

On its ninth day, the film roughly earned 1.75 crore across all languages, as per early estimates. The total for the stands at Rs 32.78 crore, which is far below the film’s production budget of Rs 120 crore. This indicates that the movie is unlikely to make any profit. Given the film’s poor performance at the box office, it seems likely that it will end up being a huge financial loss for its makers. Not just the production budget, however, the poor performance at the domestic ticket counters will also affect its production costs.
