Begum Jaan
Box Office India Trade Network

BEGUM JAAN had a very poor weekend with business of 10.50 crore nett and a poor trend. The trend was also always going to struggle as its hard to grow off a holiday so basically day one has to have some sort of collection. The film has collected lower than all the 1000 plus screen count films released since BADRINATH KI DULHANIA apart from MACHINE. The film had FAST & FURIOUS 8 for competition but that's not the reason for the poor collections, its the content. The budget of the film is low compared to many recent releases but the weekend leaves it no chance to cover as unless there is a miracle on Monday, the final share of the film will struggle to be even 10 crore and with such a poor theatrical result, the film just won't work on other platforms. The business of BEGUM JAAN over the first weekend is as follows.
Friday - 3,50,00,000
Saturday - 3,25,00,000
Sunday - 3,75,00,000
TOTAL - 10,50,00,000

The film joins the list of flops released in the last month or so like COMMANDO 2, PHILLAURI, MACHINE etc.
------------------------
BEGUM JAAN continued its poor run with business of 1.50 crore nett. If we factor in that it was a holiday on day one and that real value collections were probably 2.75-3 crore nett then the fall is actually 50% or less but that is still too much for a film that had such a low start. The holds are a little better in the North especially UP but nothing can alter the fate of the film unless of course Monday had been close to its Friday figure. That is the objective of every content film. BEGUM JAAN has grossed 12 crore nett in four days and will close the week at around 15.50 crore nett which is very poor and another addition to the flop list. The business of Begum Jaan over the first four days is as follows.
Friday - 3,50,00,000
Saturday - 3,25,00,000
Sunday - 3,75,00,000
Monday - 1,50,00,000
TOTAL - 12,00,00,000
