PIKU held up well in its third week with 10 crore nett approx taking its three week total to around 72.50 crore nett. The third week is the highest of the year beating the figures of BABY which grossed 6.75 crore nett approx in week three.

The film should make it to the 80 crore nett mark. The performance is mainly on the strength of high end multiplexes which have seen good appreciation. The PVR and Inox chains are at 50% of its all India business which is a big amount for a film grossing over 70 crore nett.

The performance in mass centres is poor with its lifetime business will be less than the first week business of TANU WEDS MANU RETURNS in Rajasthan, CP Berar, CI and Bihar. Infact its the same story in Delhi/UP and East Punjab where the film can't reach the first week figures of TANU WEDS MANU RETURNS. This is a despite a very good performance in the PVR chain that have a huge presence in Delhi/UP and East Punjab.
