Even after months of its release, Rishab Shetty’s ‘Kantara’ still led the box office today despite release of three Bollywood movies – ‘Phone Bhoot’, ‘Mili’ and ‘Double XL’.
The Katrina Kaif, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ishaan Khatter starrer was expected to do well amongst the three releases. However, the film reportedly opened to a dull 5 to 10 percent response with a decent release of 1300-1400 screens. Despite the film being a horror-comedy, it starred A-lister Katrina in the lead. Although the genre has quite a potential, ‘Phone Bhoot’ took a spoofy route, which does not have many takers in India, a report on boxofficeIndia.com stated.
