"Lai Bhaari" received good reviews from critics and audience alike. Since the first day, the film has managed to perform well at the box office. The action drama had a strong first weekend but its collections dropped during the week days until Friday (18 July) but picked up again on Saturday owing to the weekend holiday. The film is expected to perform well on Sunday and post good collections at the end of the 10th day.
Directed by Nishikant Kamat, "Lai Bhaari" stars Radhika Apte, Tanvi Azmi and Sharad Kelkar as well. Actor Salman Khan appears in a cameo in the action drama, produced by Jeetendra Thackeray, Ameya Khopkar and Genelia Deshmukh.
Riteish has had a great year with his films doing well at the box office. His last release "Ek Villain" turned out to be one of the biggest hits of 2014. The film grossed more than ₹105 crore and has emerged as the third highest grosser of 2014. Riteish's portrayal of the baddie won him accolades from all quarters.
Pizza 3D
Akshay Akkineni's directorial debut "Pizza 3D" has witnessed some growth in its collections on Saturday. The supernatural thriller opened to poor response and earned only ₹75 lakh on the first day. However, its performance improved and the film raked in over ₹1 crore on the second day.

It remains to be seen whether the film will witness any growth in collections on Sunday.
"Pizza 3D" is a remake of the Tamil film, starring Vijay Sethupathi and Remya Nambeesan. The Tamil version was critically acclaimed as well as commercially successful. However, the Hindi remake failed to receive positive feedback from the critics.
Amit Sahni Ki List
"Amit Sahni Ki List" also noticed some growth in its collections. The romantic comedy has earned ₹1.59 crore in two days at the Indian box office.
