KARACHI: Everything is not going according to plan for the producers of Operation 021, especially at Bambino and Capri cinema in Karachi. The much hyped up Shaan-starrer espionage film received an unexpectedly dull response at the two cinemas as the audience created ruckus during the film, resulting in 021’s early exit from these cinemas.
“The response was awful; people threw bottles at the screen and even harassed the management for wasting their money,” Adeel Siddiqi, the owner of Bambino cinema, told The Express Tribune.
“The crowd was going out of control and I am glad that no damage was done to our property, we controlled the situation in time,” he added.
As a result of this response, the owners of Bambino have removed all shows of Operation 021and are playing Hrithik Roshan’s Bang Bang and Na Maloom Afraad instead.
“We have to think of our interests first and our interest is the audience’s interest. If they don’t want to see, then we don’t want to play it,” said Siddiqi.
On the other hand, Operation 021 faced a similar fate in Capri cinema where the film was taken off after one hour of its first running. Sources told The Express Tribune that even the staff at Capri was harassed by the audience with ‘hamary paisay wapas karo’ attitude.
Even Capri is now playing Na Maloom Afraad and Bang Bang instead. Operation 021 was released on the first day of Eid with Capri and Bambino among the very few single screens playing this film in Sindh.
