Aamir Khan's Thugs Of Hindostan (Thugs Of Hindustan) is struggling to cross Rs 150 crore mark at the Indian box office. The Vijay Krishna Acharya directorial has somehow crawled into its third week of run in theatres and earned merely Rs 60 lakhs (appproximately) at the end of its second week at the ticket window. On the other hand, Ayushmann Khurrana's Badhaai Ho (Badhai Ho) which is currently running in its fifth week, earned Rs 80 lakhs beating Thugs Of Hindostan with a margin of Rs 20 lakhs at the domestic market.
Thugs Of Hindostan which earned Rs 134.95 crore after enjoying an extended first week (Thursday release), witnessed a shocking 93.49 per cent decline in the second week and earned merely Rs 8.79 crore taking the total movie's box office collections to Rs 143.74 crore (Hindi version).
The movie which stars Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Katrina Kaif nosedived in week 2 and has almost exhausted its run in theatres across the country.
