Emraan Hashmi returned to theatres with Ground Zero, his first theatrical release in two years. The action thriller hit the screens on April 25 and opened to a fairly muted response. Ground Zero had created a reasonable amount of pre-release hype, especially among fans of Emraan and action genre enthusiasts. Still, this anticipation didn’t quite find expression in high footfalls at the box office on Friday. Here’s how much the film earned on its day one!
Box Office Collection Day 1
According to reports by the Sacnilk, Ground zero has managed to earn around 1.00 Cr India net on its first day (early estimates). One of the major reasons for Ground Zero’s low response was the box office clash with the cult classic re release Andaz Apna Apna and Kesari 2 continued to dominate audience attention across regions.
Plot Of The Film
‘Ground Zero’, set against the backdrop of the 2001 Parliament attack, follows a BSF officer’s pursuit of the mastermind of that attack, Terrorist Ghazi Baba, culminating in one of India’s largest anti-terror operations. The screening was attended by co-producers Arhan Bagati, Abhishek Kumar, and Nishikant Roy; actors Sai Tamhankar; director Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar; as well as producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar.
