Sannata Veer Das’s Espionage failed miserably at the box office, audiences avoided going to the theatre.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Expectations are always sky high from a film released from the production house of superstar Aamir Khan. But, what has happened with Vir Das starrer film ‘Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos’ is no less than a nightmare. It has been 4 days since the film was released (the opening weekend has passed), but there is only silence at the box office. The audience rejected the film. According to the news and box office reports, this comedy-thriller film has completely failed to make the audience laugh. The collection on the fourth day (Monday) dropped so much that this film now seems to be slipping into the category of ‘flop’. People were hoping that Aamir Khan’s ‘Touch’ and Vir Das’s comedy would work some magic, but the empty chairs in the theater were telling a different story. What is the connection between Pulkit and Varun? Links and discussions are indicating that the names of comedy maestros like Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma were also associated with this film (either in competition or in expectations), but ‘Happy Patel’ was sluggish. Raftaar has proved that merely labeling a comedy does not make a film work. The content should have substance, which is probably missing here. Setback for Aamir? Aamir Khan is considered a perfectionist. He takes a lot of time in selecting and producing his films. In such a situation, this fate of ‘Happy Patel’ is disappointing for his fans. Even on the weekend, the film did not pick up the pace that was expected. Now it remains to be seen whether its earnings increase in the coming days due to word-of-mouth (people’s praise) or whether this film will remain another ‘mistake’ in the history of the box office.
