BEAUTY AND THE BEAST managed to gross around 10 crore nett in its first week and the English version will hold well in the second week. MACHINE is very poor and remains in just some single screens in week two. TRAPPED had steady but very low mid week collections but as occupancy was so low the film just remains in one show at select multiplexes outside Mumbai city where it has a little show. The film has been totally rejected. The Govinda starrer AA GAYA HERO is another disaster and its sad to see a big star of the 90's getting even lower collections than a no hoper like TRAPPED. The approx first week business of the main new releases of last week are as follows.
Beauty And The Beast - 10,50,00,000
Machine - 3,00,00,000
Trapped - 2,25,00,000
Aa Gaya Hero - 1,10,00,000
