102 Not Out takes off to a decent start at Indian box-office

Starring Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor in lead roles, 102 Not Out pulled in INR 3.52 crores on its opening day in India. The film, which brings the two veterans of Indian cinema together after a massive gap of 27 years, opened to outstanding reviews from critics. Though the figures it made on day one are just decent, the film is expected to earn even better over the weekend as the word of mouth has been very positive for it.

Helmed by Umesh Shukla, 102 Not Out sees Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor in the role of father and son. Big B plays a 102-year-old father who wants to send his 75-year-old son to an old age home, a character played brilliantly by Rishi Kapoor. The audience is in love with this adorable father-son duo.


As soon as the first-day collection of the movie arrived on Saturday morning, well-known film critic and trade analyst, Taran Adarsh tweeted from his handle, "Like most content-driven films aimed at families, #102NotOut started on a slow note, but gathered momentum from evening onwards... A HEALTHY GROWTH is on the cards on Sat and Sun... Word of mouth is SUPER-STRONG... Friday 3.52 cr. India biz."

102 Not Out hit screens on May 4.
