Thugs of Hindostan, which is one of the biggest films of the year, has started witnessing its downfall after smashing several records on the day of its release.
In four days since the release, the Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan starrer has earned Rs 123 crore. The film was expected to pick up on its fourth day i.e. Sunday, but it turned out to be opposite.

Taran Adarsh took to his Instagram handle and shared the collection of the film, which reads, “#ThugsOfHindostan faces REJECTION… The dwindling *extended weekend* biz clearly indicates it has failed to live up to the mammoth expectations… It did set new benchmarks on Day 1, but the negative word of mouth hit biz hard on subsequent days… ”

The film also happens to be the highest opener for Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima and Katrina Kaif which has left behind Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo by a huge margin which was also the biggest Diwali release earlier.
Thugs of Hindostan, also starring Katrina Kaif, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Ronit Roy, released on 8 November.
