Trade guru Amod Mehra says, At a conservative estimate, the film will gross approximately 15 cr on the weekend.''
This coupled together with the money Mahesh and Mukesh raked in on the electronic sales
such as satellite and home video rights should total up to 10 cr reportedly. So in other words Murder 2 is a huge
hit in just three days after the release. In fact as the week continues, more money will obviously pour in.
Mehra says, Emraan Hashmi is a lucky mascot for the Bhatts. He has usually earned them megabucks.''
Emraan's own standing in Bollywood has been consolidated after this film.
He is one of the few heroes who has been consistently giving hits. Last year he had Once Upon A Time in Mumbai
and this year he has Murder 2.
Says another trade analyst, Earlier people said Shah Rukh Khan and sex always sell. Now it is being said that Emraan andsex are a formidable combination.''
