Hrithik Roshan may have been known for his romantic and comedy roles till now but in his latest release “Super 30”, he has played a completely different character. Hrithik is back on the big screen after two years and despite the fact that “Super 30” is no masala entertainer, it has performed well on the box-office on its first day.
The movie is based on the life of a brilliant mathematician and educationist Anand Kumar who is pretty famous for providing free coaching to students who are from economically weaker households for the entrance examinations of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT).
The flick failed to impress the critics as they found casting of Hrithik as Anand Kumar inappropriate but the good thing is that the audiences felt the connect and the same reflected in its earnings on the opening day as well.
“Super 30” has collected Rs 11.83 crore on its first day which is higher than the opening collections of Hrithik’s last release “Kaabil” that minted Rs 10.43 crore.
Here’s what trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted,
“#Super30 has a decent Day 1… Biz picked up at metros/urban centres [Mumbai and South specifically] towards evening… Mass pockets are ordinary/dull… Should witness growth on Day 2 and 3… Sustaining and proving its mettle on weekdays crucial… Fri ₹ 11.83 cr. India biz.”

Hopefully the collections will increase in the weekend but the fact is that the movie has to compete with strongly running Shahid Kapoor starrer “Kabir Singh” and Ayushmann Khurrana’s “Article 15”, so it won’t be a cakewalk on the box-office.
