BROTHERS showed good growth of 55-60% on Saturday but as it was a huge holiday for Independence day so the growth should have been more. The first two day business of BROTHERS is as follows.

Friday - 13,50,00,000
Saturday - 21,25,00,000
TOTAL - 34,75,00,000

Sunday is now crucial for the film and it really needs Sunday to be around its Saturday figure or at least 20 crore nett which should enable the weekdays to hold up.
--------------------------
BROTHERS grossed 49.75 crore nett over its first weekend and though the figure is good it does not tell the complete story. The near 50 crore nett business has mainly come due to the big Independence day holiday on Saturday while on Friday and Sunday the film has not performed. The first three day business of BROTHERS is as follows.
Friday - 13,50,00,000
Saturday - 21,25,00,000
Sunday - 15,00,00,000
TOTAL - 49,75,00,000

The business on Sunday was a killer though the warning signs were there on Saturday as key centers did not grow as they should gave. Still as next day was a Sunday, you would have thought the film to get away with it with perhaps a small drop but it was not to be.

The business on Sunday is much lower than a film like HOLIDAY and even lower than GABBAR IS BACK. The Sunday drop will probably mean it will be tough going on the weekdays. Due to the fact that the weekend was inflated by the big holiday and the poor trend it has practically no chance to add 50% on weekdays to its weekend business.
