Nollywood filmmaker, Kunle Afolayan spoke to NET recently and he disclosed that his latest film, October 1 has done far better than any other film ever put on DStv’s box office in Nigeria.
“I don’t have the figures yet, but someone told me recently that it has done better than all the films they have ever put on box office – both local and foreign. ‘In terms of figures, I don’t know how much that has translated to, but that’s what I’ve been told.”
Several report has it that, Ayo Makun’s 30 Days in Atlanta recently broke the long standing box office record formerly held by Chineze Anyaene’s Ije.
Ayo’s film reportedly grossed N76m in just seven weeks at the cinemas.
Kunle’s October 1 currently stands at Number 4 on the log of highest grossing Nollywood movies of all time.
