NEERJA dropped for the first time in its run as it grossed 1-1.25 crore nett on its third Friday. The film dropped around 60% from last Friday and 20% from its second Thursday despite weekend ticket rates on third Friday. The total of the film is around 57.50 crore nett in eight days which is similar to KAHAANI though gross business is lower. Despite the drop it should get to around 70 crore nett for lifetime business.

The film has got tax exemption in Rajasthan but hardly matters now as collections are practically nothing outside Jaipur and even Jaipur is weak. The tax exemption will not make much difference in Rajasthan as it did with Mumbai city and Delhi city.

The film has taken full advantage of the tax exemptions in crucial cities and got a good clear run with weak competition to finish with a very good lifetime total.
