Veteran Indian actor Pankaj Kapur’s directorial debut ‘Mausam’ starring his son Shahid Kapur and actress Sonam Kapoor had a good opening on Friday as it earned approximately 90 million Indian rupees on the first day, the Indian media reported on Saturday.
Made at a budget of 350 million, the film released in around 1,900 screens and is going strong with 100 percent occupancy. The film aims to bring back true romance. ‘Mausam’ is a love story which shows how a couple is forced to estrange by socio-political situations around. It captures the crest and trough they go through a span of 10 years until they reunite and make a happy ending.
Shahid plays the role of an air force pilot and Sonam a Kashmiri girl. The film was supposed to release September 16 but it was postponed after delay in getting a no objection certificate (NoC) from the Indian Air Force which had objections over a few scenes.
