HATE STORY 2 collected a pretty good 21.75 crore nett in its first week. The collections were good over the weekend but the film fell on Monday as despite being fairly steady after that collections remained on the lower side.

The difference between HATE STORY released in 2012 and this film is the multiplex business business. That film grossed 12 crore nett lifetime while this will do around double of that film. The film could have done better if it was not Ramadan as a multiplex dominated circuit like East Punjab is the best circuit as others have been affected by Ramadan. The film could have scored higher figures in Gujarat, CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan, Nizam and East.

The film has been a good filler for one week but will not add much more business and will be lucky to hit the 25 crore nett mark for lifetime business.
--------------------
HUMPTY SHARMA KI DULHANIA grossed 19.25 crore nett in its second week taking the two week business to 70 crore nett approx. The drop week on week is 62% which is good. The film continued with strong business in the North in week two but some circuits did drop by over 70% as HATE STORY 2 dominated the single screens.

The second week figures are the sixth best of the year after HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY, 2 STATES, JAI HO, EK VILLAIN and QUEEN. Barring QUEEN, all the others were bigger films.

There will be a big fall in week three due to the release of KICK which has meant HUMPTY SHARMA KI DULHANIA has just two screenings at most multiplexes. the film is likely to finish with around 72 crore nett busines.
