MISSION MANGAL has recorded excellent extended weekend collections of 96.50 crore nett. Its a huge number for the film as such a number could not be expected for this type of film before release. The first day holiday was there but it is what it has done after the holiday which is the standout. The Sunday numbers are almost coming back to that national holiday first day level. At some places the collections are higher than day one.

The film has crossed the business of films like DE DE PYAAR DE, MANIKARNIKA - THE QUEEN OF JHANSI and LUKA CHUPPI in just four days and these were successful films to varying degrees. The weekend is at such a level that even if the film was to drop hugely on Monday it is still a HIT film. But going by the fantastic weekend trend, the film should hold and its about how well it can hold.

Mumbai is done fantastic business while West Bengal and Mysore will notch record numbers for Akshay Kumar starrers by the end of the week. Delhi/UP and East Punjab have been rock solid on Saturday and Sunday and should hold over time and catch up with business in Mumbai circuit.

The first three day business of MISSION MANGAL is as follows.
Thursday - 28,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 17,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 23,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 27,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 96,50,00,000 apprx

Last year GOLD had grossed 67 crore nett over its five day extended weekend and this film has done almost 50% more business in five days. It will cross the lifetime numbers of GOLD in just five days.
