PIKU had a good weekend of around 24.50 crore nett and the trend was very strong with extraordinary growth on Saturday and very good growth on Sunday. The trending is the best of the year barring DUM LAGA KE HAISHA but that film was at very low levels and it is easier with low collections.

The business of the film was led by the major metros of Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Gurgaon, Kolkata and Bangalore but on Sunday multiplexes all over were good. The few single screens it has released on have not done well but it does not matter much when multiplexes show this type of growth. The business in West Bengal is better than GABBAR IS BACK released last week and that film had the biggest weekend of the year in that circuit.

It is rare that film a film taking a five crore nett opening day ends up doing an 11 crore Sunday. The film should hold well on Monday especially after the growth on Sunday as some films manage to show huge jump on Saturday but are then flat on Sunday.

The other release of the week KUCH KUCH LOCHA HAI was very dull with around 2.25 crore nett business over the weekend.
