Kick collects 127 crore in India

Kick collects 127 crore in India in just 5 days. Highest grossing movie of the year so far.

Hate Story 2 First Monday Business

Hate Story 2 fell a little over 50% which is higher than the norm but still it has decent figures for the first four days. The daily four day business is as follows.

   Friday - 4,85,00,000
   Saturday 4,30,00,000
   Sunday 5,00,00,000
   Monday - 2,25,00,000  
   TOTAL 16,40,00,000  


The film will gross around 21.50 crore nett in its first week but with Kick releasing on Friday it will be lucky if it gets to 25 crore nett. Still the film will cover costs thanks to the good weekend.

Lootera First Day Business

Lootera had below the mark collections with first day likely to come out in the 4.25-4.50 crore nett region. the film fared better in the metros with mass belts having very low collections.

The collections are similar to Ranveer Singh's last film Ladies vs Ricky Bahl which was released 18 months back but Lootera is a much bigger film than that film.

The best collections have come in West Bengal as the film is set there but the Central belt has low collections and North also has not collected outside the Delhi/NCR region. The film will have to show very strong growth to come out with even reasonable weekend figures.

Policegiri First Day Business

Policegiri fared poorly on its first day with collections around the 2.50 crore nett mark. The collections at multiplexes were very bad especially the metros, Dehi city had ridiculously low collections.

The film did fare better in places like UP, Bihar, CPCI and Rajasthan as these areas collected better than Lootera which was very low in these areas. But Policegiri had to put up excellent numbers in these mass belts to get even reasonable day one figures as urban centres so low.

Policegiri has had such a low start that its impossible for the film to score at the box office unless there is some sort of miracle 300% jump on Saturday.

Lootera And Policegiri Start Slowly

Lootera and Policegiri both started slowly at the box office with Lootera recording collections of 30-35% at metro multiplexes but lower elsewhere while Policegiri was awful at multiplexes on its limited release though single screens recorded better collections of around 30%.

A start like this for Policegiri means its an uphill struggle because when a film in the action genre does not open it is a lost cause most of the time.

Lootera was never expected to open and will depend on what sort of growth it shows over the weekend but like Raanjhanaa it will have a lot of work to do as the budget is on the higher side looking at the type of film it is and a male lead whose previous films have not done that well at the box office which makes an it even harder for the film as far as opening morning collections are concerned.

Raanjhanaa Rock Steady In Week Two

Raanjhanaa was rock steady in week two collecting around 17 crore nett against the 35 crore nett approx in week one. The week on week drop is around 50%.

The film has now collected 52 crore nett in two weeks and should record good figures in week three despite competing with two new major releases. The film has done very good business all over expect East Punjab and West Bengal where collections are average.

Raanjhanaa has chances to do final business of around 65 crore nett and could even become the fourth highest grossing film of the year by beating the Special 26 total of 65 crore nett.

Race 2 Grosses 66 Crore Nett In Week One

Race 2 grossed 66 crore nett in week one as collections fell from Monday on wards  The fall was bigger in the mass circuits as places like CPCI came down quite fast. The film held up a bit better in Delhi/UP and East Punjab.

The first week collections are the highest for a film featuring Saif Ali Khan or John Abraham and has already crossed the figures of Race (2008) but the film has not gone on from a good weekend. Race (2008) had grossed around 61 crore nett.

The second weekend is all important for the film and will tell where the film is going.

Table No.21 Has Steady Monday

Table No.21 had a steady Monday collecting around 1 crore nett adding to the 5.75 crore nett it collected over the weekend. The collections after four days are 6.75 crore nett approx.

The Monday collections give the film a chance to hang around at the box office for a few weeks. The key for these type of film's is the next seven days after the weekend as the opening three days are rarely strong due to lack of face value.

The weekdays and second weekend will determine where the film is going but the Monday figures give the film a chance to put up a respectable total.

Some multiplexes showed similar business to Friday while some very down slightly but very few were up.

The two day business of the film is around 35 crore nett which is huge as it is has done it without holidays but the next few days will tell that the drop that come on Friday was due to excessive screenings and cold weather or therew as more to it. The North was hit again in the evening by cold weather on Saturday.
