'Khalifa' gets mixed reviews, 46% occupancy
Khalifa had a 46% overall occupancy on opening day, picking up steam from morning to evening shows.
While viewers praised Prithviraj's stylish look and the film's energetic action scenes (especially before the interval), some felt the story was predictable and parts of the gold smuggling plot felt dated.
Sukumaran is set to feature in Varanasi.
