LAAL SINGH CHADDHA showed a jump of 20% on Saturday which was just not good enough as Saturday would be the day when the high end multiplexes where it is doing its best business would really come into play but it did not really happen for the film.

It was better growth than Raksha Bandhan but that was always going to happen due to markets which LAAL SINGH CHADDHA caters to but the growth needed to be 40-50% instead of the 20% it has got. The film stands at around 27.50 crore nett after three days and if the film can improve in mass markets, then maybe it has an outside chance of 50 crore nett over its extended five day weekend.

Even if somehow the film gets to 50 crore nett over five days, it will just mean some decent response on Saturday and Sunday as the industry expected the film to be at 50 crore nett minimum over the first three days alone which itself were on the higher side as a good initial was unlikely. But still the content of the film could have carried it.

The collections are coming with a fair response to the film in Delhi NCR and East Punjab with North India (Delhi/UP and East Punjab) contributing around 40% of the all India business. The response is totally the opposite in the other major sector Maharashtra/Gujarat.

The three day numbers for LAAL SINGH CHADDHA are as follows.

Thursday - 11,50,00,000 apprx

Friday - 7,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 8,75,00,000 apprx
