CITYLIGHTS had a poor weekend of around 3.25 crore nett. There was growth on Saturday but with a starting point of not even 75 lakhs nett it had to be 100% plus growth and a repeat on Sunday. The film is the lowest opener for Vishesh Films since AWARAPAN in 2007 which collected under 3 crore nett in its first weekend.

The banner normally does well with small budget films but CITYLIGHTS is set to be one of the poorer performers. The business was best in Mumbai circuit. The approx first three day collections are as follows.
Friday - 65,00,000.
Saturday - 1,05,00,000
Sunday - 1,55,00,000
TOTAL- 3,25,00,000

The other release KUKU MATHUR KI JHAND HO GAYI had even worse results collecting around 1.50-1.75 crore nett and not even trending well over the weekend. The film is a low budget but collections don't even justify that low cost. The approx first three day collections are as follows.
Friday - 40,00,000.
Saturday - 50,00,000
Sunday - 60,00,00-85,00,000 (approx)
TOTAL- 1,50,00,000-1,75,000 (approx)
-----------------------------
HEROPANTI had a good weekend of around 7.75-8 crore nett taking its ten day total to around 43 crore nett. The drop in the second weekend was around 62% which is very good. It is better than most films released this year barring the ones which sustained very well like QUEEN and 2 STATES.

The film should now comfortably collect 50 crore nett lifetime business and maybe go even higher if third week does not totally capitulate due to the release of big budget HOLIDAY.
