GOLD got a a lift from Bakri Eid as it grossed 6 crore nett on Wednesday. This has taken the eight day total of the film to 85 crore nett which is decent. The film has a trend of doing better on the holidays and tends to go low on the other days. The first day was very strong and then it did well again on Sunday and Bakri Eid.

There will be drop in collections tomorrow as it come off a holiday and remains to be seen how big this drop is as this will determine the extended first week number. The film has done best in Mumbai (except Gujarat), Delhi/UP, West Bengal and Mysore. The collections in mass circuits have got a lift over the last two days but in the second week the likes of CP, CI and Bihar will be low. Surprisingly the film has done better than SATYAMEVA JAYATE over the Eid period despite that film having more for the Muslim audience.

The growth for GOLD has been better over the last two days. The first eight day business of GOLD is as follows.
