A still from Uri: The Surgical Strike
Bollywood kicked off 2019 at the box office with Vicky Kaushal's Uri: The Surgical Strike, and The Accidental Prime Minister. While the industry's bet was on the Anupam Kher and Akshaye Khanna starrer that trains the lens on former prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh, the film managed to garner only Rs 7.5 crore over two days.
Instead, it was the Kaushal-starrer that broke the January jinx — Uri: The Surgical Strike opened at Rs 8.20 crore and saw a 50 per cent jump in collection on Saturday to earn Rs 12.43 crore, thus taking its two-day tally to Rs 20.63 crore.
