‘Jism 2′ makes Rs 21 crore in opening weekend

Pooja Bhatt’s erotic thriller “Jism 2″ is doing roaring business on the box office. It has managed to rake in an encouraging figure of Rs.21 crore in its opening weekend and “a incontrovertible fact that justifies that brand ‘Jism’ is here to stay,” says the director.

“‘Jism 2′ has done a business of Rs.21 crore in India over the weekend (despite releasing during Ramzan). Brand ‘JISM’, my dears, is here to STAY,” tweeted Pooja.

The film, said to be made on the cheap of Rs.7 crore, features the sizzling trio of Indo-Canadian porn star Sunny Leone, Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda.

Many expected it to be a sex-laden, skin-show affair. But in keeping with film critics, it wasn’t anything with regards to that, and almost everyone was raving about Randeep’s performance within the movie.

Released Aug 3, “Jism 2″ is the sequel to 2003 film “Jism”, which catapulted model-turned-actress Bipasha Basu’s career to new heights.

“BRAND ‘Jism’ isn't merely a movie. This is a cultural war. It's an EVENT. Person who divides crowds passionately and turns its actors into STARS,” wrote Pooja. – IANS
