The new releases - VEERAPPAN, PHOBIA and WAITING - all fared very poorly. VEERAPPAN had the best collections but also had by far the widest release. The approx first day collections of the new releases were as follows.
Veerappan - 1.25 crore
Phobia - 20 lakhs
Waiting - 20 lakhs

Over the day it was WAITING which came out with best occupancy so that film should see some growth over the weekend especially on Saturday but from such low figures it will be irrelevant.

VEERAPPAN which is the biggest release will have a lower first weekend than the second weekend of last weeks holdover SARBJIT. That sums up the fate of the film.
