Romeo Akbar Walter Box Office Collection Day 1: John Abraham's Spy Thriller Witnesses Decent Opening, Mints Around Rs 6 Crore

John Abraham's Romeo Akbar Walter is finally out in theatres and the film performed averagely on day 1. Directed by Robby Grewal, the espionage thriller which arrived in cinema halls yesterday, opened to pretty much good reviews from the critics. Trade experts had predicted that the film would earn around Rs 5  to 6 crore on its first day and that's exactly what happened. Co-starring television hottie Mouni Roy, Romeo Akbar Walter is set against the backdrop of India - Pakistan War of 1971. In the film, John plays the role of an undercover RAW agent. RAW – Romeo Akbar Walter Movie Review: John Abraham and Mouni Roy’s Spy Drama Is a Stirring Saga of Effective Thrills and Surprises.

While the film created good pre-release buzz courtesy it's trailer, at the box office, John starrer could have certainly done better on day 1. We say so because as per BollywoodHungama the film has raked in around Rs 6 crore on its opening day. Though the figure isn't bad at all, RAW should have clocked in more money considering John's last film Satyameva Jayate had earned Rs 20 crore on day 1.

Further, trade portal Boxofficeindia.com has stated, "The opening of Romeo Akbar Walter is in that same range as films like Rocky Handsome, Parmanu and the Force films and out of those Parmanu went on to do well but that film was more of a drama than an action thriller which meant more potential outside the youth crowd. It remains to be seen where Romeo Akbar Walter goes. The growth was minimal on Friday evening but still, Saturday should go upwards though probably not as much as it needs to." Romeo Akbar Walter Actress Mouni Roy Pulls Off This Floral Printed Lehenga With Panache – View Pics
