BEFIKRE had some growth on its second Saturday but collections remain low and the film has not been appreciated by the audience though is okay from a recovery point. The film will have low second weekend but will still be the top performing film despite being in its second week beating both the new major releases WAJAH TUM HO and ROGUE ONE: A STAR WATS STORY. The two day second weekend collections of BEFIKRE are as follows.
Friday - 1,75,00,000
Saturday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 4,00,00,000 apprx
---------------------
BEFIKRE fell badly in the second weekend as collections fell 80% from the first weekend. The growth over the weekend was also not that strong but that is sort of expected as the film has not worked and on top the genre is limited to urban youth. The film has crossed 55 crore nett in ten days and is looking at a close of around 60 crore nett. There will not be much coming in the third week due to the release of event film DANGAL. Despite not performing at the box office the film is a plus for the producers but the price paid for television rights will be impossible to cover as box office is not commensurate with the price and on top its limited reach film when the appeal has to be wide to score on television.The business of BEFIKRE till date is as follows.
First Week 48,81,00,000
Friday - 1,75,00,000
Saturday - 2,25,00,000
Sunday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Second Weekend - 6,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 55,56,00,000 apprx
