Sorry Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone’s ‘xXx 3’ has BEATEN Baywatch at the US box office!
Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone have always been pitted against each other. Bollywood or Hollywood! Now, both their films have released in the US box office and the verdict is out.
DP’s xXx 3 also starring Vin Diesel had released in January and became a box office dud. But the film still managed to rake in more moolah than PC’s Baywatch. Featuring Dwayne The Rock Johnson and Zac Efron, the R rated film opened to poor reviews last week at the US box office.
The film which enjoyed an extended opening weekend collected $22 million in its first four days at the US box office. Consider the Friday-Saturday-Sunday collection and you have only $18 million, which is disastrous for a film of this hype. DP’s xXx 3 also didn’t fare well at the BO but it still managed to get $2 million more in its opening weekend. xXx 3 had netted $20 million in the first 3 days.
Overall, the film had a lifetime collection of $44 million which Baywatch won’t be able to beat, given its slow pace at the ticket counters. So guess, PC lost this round to DP and how!
