And the DECLINE begins... #ThugsOfHindostan slips on Day 2, facing a fall during #Diwali holidays... Mass belt / single screens are holding better, but the cracks are already showing at plexes... Day 3
and Day 4 are extremely crucial... #TOH — taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) November 10, 2018
#ThugsOfHindostan has to show a positive upturn on Day 3
