Box office: Mallika Sherawat's Dirty Politics opens poorly

March 09, 2015 18:29 IST
Bhumi Pednekar beats Mallika Sherawat at the box office!
 
Last week's releases Hey Bro and Badmashiyaan were total disasters.

Mallika Sherawat's Dirty Politics managed to earn some but the collections remained below the average mark.
 
Meanwhile, Dum Kaga Ke Haisha's second weekend saw an improvement in its collections. It may become a mini hit.
