DUM LAGE KE HAISHA grossed around 10.75 crore nett in week one and
although this is a low figure it is good considering the opening it
took. The film is set for a good run over the
coming few weeks.
The weekdays hold was very good with no drop between Monday and Thursday as the collections on all the 4 days was over 1 crore nett and remained at a similar level which was also the level at which the film opened on Friday. The best day was Thursday as it got benefit in the evening of the holiday on the next day.
The film fared best in North with east Punjab grossing around 1.40 crore nett and Delhi/UP grossing around 2.60 crore nett. In short, nearly 40% of its all India business was from North. Mumbai grossed around 3.40 crore nett which was a 33% contribution. The film has chances to repeat its first week business in week two looking at the trend of week one. The weekdays hold was very good with no drop between Monday and Thursday as the collections on all the 4 days was over 1 crore nett and remained at a similar level which was also the level at which the film opened on Friday. The best day was Thursday as it got benefit in the evening of the holiday on the next day.
---------------------------
DUM LAGE KE HAISHA had a very good eighth day as it grossed around 1.75 crore nett. It was a half day at many places due to Holi with multiplexes shut till around 4pm so the film mainly got these collections in the evening. It helped that it was a holiday.
The eighth day collections are the best for the film barring it's first Saturday and Sunday. The film grossed around 10.75 crore nett in week one which is a meagre amount for a first week total but it will be a totally different story in week two as collections could match week one or even surpass depending how the week unfolds.
Normally there would be 60-70% growth on the second Saturday but here will be interesting to see if the film improves on Saturday and if so by how much as Saturday evening has the best occupancies at multiplexes. But this time they may not be able to match Friday evening due to the holiday factor so gains will come from morning and afternoon shows. There was also the match on Friday which could have hit collections which makes Saturday even harder to call.

AB TAK CHHAPPAN 2 had a poor first week grossing around 6.50 crore nett. FLOP
---------------------------
BADLAPUR grossed 9.50 crore nett in its second week taking its two week total to 45.25 crore nett approx. The drop in week two was around 75%. Despite the drop in collections the film has done well and may just touch 50 crore nett lifetime in its run
The drop came mainly as Mumbai circuit fell. It is Gujarat which holds best in the circuit but Gujarat is under performing for BADLAPUR. North India held up best in week two with drops of around 70%.
The film will finish with the same lifetime total as a similar film HAIDER released last year, the difference being that BADLAPUR has a much lower cost.

ROY crashed out in week three and is looking at a lifetime total of 36 crore nett.FLOP
---------------------------
BABY is around the 81.75 crore nett mark in six weeks. AVERAGE
