Zero, an Aanand L Rai directorial, had a dismal first week. It opened with a collection of Rs 20.14 crore on Friday which dropped to Rs 18.22 crore on Saturday. The film picked up again on Sunday by minting Rs 20.71 crore only to see a drastic fall on its first weekday. On Monday, the Shah Rukh starrer managed to add only Rs 9.50 crore to its kitty and even after five days of its release, the film failed to touch the Rs 100 crore mark. The film’s collection now stands at Rs 81.32 crore.

His previous releases Dear Zindagi (2016), Fan (2016) and Dilwale (2015) brought no good news for Shah Rukh. In times when the other Khans of Bollywood were scoring double and triple centuries, SRK had to settle just with a ton. In 2016, Dear Zindagi earned Rs 68.16 crore and Fan failed with just Rs 84.10 crore in its kitty. But, in the same year, Salman’s Sultan and Aamir’s Dangal made it to the 300-crore club with a collection of Rs 300.45 crore and Rs 387.38 crore, respectively.

Shah Rukh lost the position of box office king in 2015 after Dilwale’s Rs 148.72 crore collection failed to outshine Salman’s Bajrani Bhaijaan (Rs 320.34 crore) and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (Rs 210.16 crore). Aamir had no release in the year 2015.
The fans of Badshah of Bollywood still have high hopes from their superstar and wait for him to recapture his lost glory.
