Scenario on last Friday was no less than a battle field when "Shuddh Desi Romance" and remake of cult classic "Zanjeer" made it to BO. But despite loads of hullabaloo enveloping the former it was "Shuddh Desi Romance" which went away with a major chunk of cake.
Starring Priyanka Chopra, Ram Charan Teja and Sanjay Dutt "Zanjeer" was expected to emerge as a a good BO grosser, because of its in a way being associated with the movie which made Big B the "Angry Young Man" of Indian cinema, but nothing of that sort happened and "Zanjeer" crumbled soon after its opening and could only manage to collect a meager 3.58 Crores subsequently followed by a bleak response on weekends too.
Besides audience, "Zanjeer" even failed in convincing the critics by its content and ended up being a mediocre kinda movie.
Whereas if we talk about "Shuddh Desi Romance" starring PC Jr Parineeti, Vaani Kapoor and Sushant Singh Rajput then it received a better response as compared to its BO rival.
Although "Shuddh Desi Romance" received a mix response from the critics lobby it thoroughly succeeded in pleasing the viewers by its fresh content and story-line. At its opening "Shuddh Desi Romance" collected approximately 6 Crores, subsequently followed by a net collection of 23 Crores by weekend.
