Housefull 5 box office collection day 1 early estimate: Akshay Kumar film may not benefit from two different endings
Housefull 5 box office collection day 1 early estimate: The makers of Housefull 5 adopted a unique marketing strategy of releasing the film with two different endings to boost their box office collections. However, it seems the move has not really worked in their favour, as the film has collected just Rs 13.81 crore as of 6 pm on Friday. Tickets of the movie are available as Housefull 5A and Housefull 5B. Both the versions are same for the first two hours, while the last 20 minutes differ from each other.
Housefull 5, starring Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakri, Sonam Bajwa, among others, was released in 7018 screens with Housefull 5A releasing in 4074 and Housefull 5B in 2944 screens. Housefull 5A witnessed an overall occupancy of about 20.93%, whereas, Housefull 5B had a lesser occupancy rate of 10.76%.
Together, Housefull 5 has managed to earn Rs 13.81 crore, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. Despite being a popular franchise and the addition of actors such as Shreyas Talpade, Jackie Shroff, Ranjeet, and Johnny Lever, the film has failed to impress the audience. The two endings has created further confusion among viewers in terms of their movie going experience. While some say the first version is better than the second, others claim the second version takes a darker turn compared to the first version. Both endings have different people as murderers.

Expressing their confusion online, some users have questioned the need of releasing the film with two different endings with some suggesting they could have released different versions on OTT.
Akshay Kumar, who was last seen in Kesari 2, has not seen success for quite some time. With the current numbers, twist in endings, and confusion among fans, it is hard to say whether Housefull 5 will end his streak of flops.

Cancer Survivor Defies 'Astronomical' Odds, Wins Three Lotteries in Nine Months
A Canadian man who has previously battled cancer, has defied the odds by winning three lotteries in the space of nine months, taking the total prize money to Rs 15.6 crore ($2.5 million). David Serkin, hailing from the Lethbridge area in Alberta, Canada, won $1 million on the May 3 LOTTO 6/49 Classic draw, according to the Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC). "The local won $500,000 on the August 20 LOTTO MAX draw and $1 million on the November 16 LOTTO 6/49 draw. Now, the Lethbridge man has won again, another $1 million prize on the May 3 LOTTO 6/49 Classic draw," WCLC said in a press release. As per WCLC, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 33,294,800, but Mr Serkin managed to overcome it, having been a longtime player of the LOTTO 6/49 since its launch in 1982. He said he relished the routine of buying and checking his tickets for a winner. He purchased the newest winning ticket from Shell Lethbridge at 2440 Fairway Plaza Road S in Lethbridge. "You check your ticket and if you win, you're happy. If you don't, you can always try again," Mr Serkin told WCLC, adding: "I bought this ticket while I was buying gas. I saw the Gold Ball draw was getting close (to the final ball selection) and thought, 'What do I have to lose?'" Quizzed about his massive winnings, Mr Serkin modestly replied: "I know the odds are astronomical. I don't think it'll happen again, but I still like buying tickets." "I'm a cancer survivor and I'm retired, so I am just grateful for all of it," he added. As per a report in Today, Mr Serkin's luck dates back over a decade. He previously won $250,000 in another draw more than 10 years prior to his recent hattrick of wins. Lottery over dinner Earlier this month, a couple in the US state of New Jersey won Rs 12.86 crore in the lottery after buying a Rs 257 scratch-off ticket while on their way to dinner. The couple would not have won the lottery if it weren't for the insistence of one of the partners. While one wanted to buy tickets in another town, the second insisted on purchasing from a store that they did not typically visit. "Like they ever listen to me! So, I go in and get a $10 ticket and a couple of the $3 Win for Lifes," the player recalled. "It was just so random. This really changes our lives. We're always stressed about bills. This makes life a lot easier," the winner said.
