Pakistan faced another embarrassment after its movie 'Mera Lyari', a response to Aditya Dhar's 'Dhurandhar' failed miserably at the box office within days of its release and was able to sold just 22 tickets, media reports have claimed. In contrast, Dhurandhar collected ₹1350.83 cr. at the worldwide box office. In India, it collected ₹895.96 cr. net (₹1057.8 cr. Gross) and in overseas, it grossed ₹293.03 cr.
Directed by Abu Aleeha, Mera Lyari aimed to present a positive image of Karachi's Lyari town and is a sports drama centred on women's football. But the movie failed to attract the audience and reports claimed that several theatres removed it after extremely poor occupancy and ticket sales reportedly touched just 22 admissions in some locations.
