GV Prakash Kumar is in the limelight because of his highly ambitious film Kingston, which hit the screens on March 7. The horror thriller is struggling to survive at the domestic box office. According to Sacnilk, a trade website, it earned merely Rs 31 lakh in India on its fifth day. This is lower than the Rs 51 lakh it earned on the third day.

Here is the day-wise breakdown:

Day 1: 92 lakh

Day 2: Rs 1.22 crore

Day 3: Rs 1.02 crore

Day 4: Rs 51 lakh

Day 5: Rs 31 lakh

The filmĄ¯s total collection stands at Rs 3.96 crore. Kingston received negative reviews, with critics panning the screenplay. This appears to be working against it.
