Box Office update: With Rs 44.27 crore, Wazir becomes the first hit of 2016!

The Farhan Akhtar-Amitabh Bachchan starrer Wazir has done great business in the thriller genre. So much so that it has recovered its total production week in merely a week of its release. The film has also gone ahead to break the January jinx by proving to be 2016's very first hit.

It has been a pattern since the past few years, that Bollywood releases in the month of January have mostly crumbled at the box office. Breaking this jinx, the thriller has not only garnered accolades from its audiences but from film critics too.

The film stands at a total worldwide collection of Rs 44.27 crore in its 1st week and the 2nd weekend collections are of Rs 6.29 crores (domestic). With that, Wazir has become the first hit film for Bollywood this year.
