DANGAL (Hindi) grossed 192.50 crore nett in its first week as it added 19.75 crore nett on its seventh day. The film has grossed over 20 crore nett on six of its first seven days which has never happened before. The first week total is the second highest ever after SULTAN which grossed 209 crore nett but that had holidays over the Eid period. Here the film has been unlucky as the big holiday fell on Sunday but the period between Christmas and New Year is good for collections, The film has set three first week circuit records as East Punjab, Mysore and Tamil Nadu/Kerala set all time records for week one. These have out performed because film is Haryana based and tax free was issued in Haryana from Wednesday. So East Punjab is extraordinary while Mysore and TNK is where Aamir Khan is most popular star ahead of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. The daily first week business of DANGAL (Hindi) is as follows.
Friday - 29,14,00,000
Saturday 34,00,00,000
Sunday - 41,25,00,000
Monday - 25,00,00,000
Tuesday - 22,50,00,000
Wednesday - 20,75,00,000
Thursday - 19,75,00,000
TOTAL - 1,92,49,00,000 apprx

The next two days are going to determine where the film is going. Going by the weekday trend and the fact that it is weekend for New Year the collections are going to be huge but how huge remains to be seen. No film has ever collected 100 crore nett in its second week but DANGAL has a shot depending on what happens over the weekend. The Tamil and Telugu versions of the film grossed around 5 crore nett which is not bad considering how poorly the film started in these markets.
------------------
DANGAL set an all time record becoming highest weekday grosser of all time and that too with no big holidays on the weekdays. It just edged past the weekday figure of PK but PK had a huge holiday for Christmas falling on day six whereas DANGAL had normal days through the Mon -Thu period. If we take out the phenomenal first week business in a few circuits then the biggest achievements of DANGAL over the first week are the Sunday business which was an ALL TIME RECORD collection for a single day and also this weekday performance.

The weekdays are actually better than the weekend performance as the weekdays have picked up a huge 85% of the weekend without a holiday and at with collections at high levels.
