Bollywood star Katrina Kaif’s ‘Phone Bhoot’ has opened in India to a mixed response.

The film’s first-day collection at the Indian box office wasn’t impressive. As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, ‘Phone Bhoot’ managed to rake in Rs2.05 crore (Rs20.5 million, Dh918,446) only.

“#PhoneBhoot records low numbers on Day 1... Biz did pick up towards evening shows, but not enough to record a healthy total... All eyes on Day 2 and 3... Fri Rs 2.05 cr. #India biz,” Adarsh tweeted.

Helmed by Gurmmeet Singh, the film was released alongside Janhvi Kapoor-starrer ‘Mili’ and Huma Qureshi and Sonakshi Sinha’s ‘Double XL’.

Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ishaan Khatter and Jackie Shroff are also a part of ‘Phone Bhoot’. The film revolves around a ghost who reaches out to two ghostbusters for a business idea. However, everything goes downhill as the eerie ghost reveals her plan.
