Laal Singh Chaddha Box Office Collection Day 5: At Rs 45 Crore, Aamir Khan's Film 'Rejected'
Box Office India Trade Network

LAAL SINGH CHADDHA crashed out on Tuesday as it collected in the 2 crore nett range which takes the six day business of the film to around 48 crore nett. Obviously its sad to see such a huge drop for such a big event film but this drop should to make it clear to the industry that it is not negativity but content which is the reason for the failure of this film. No film if it is good or even average drops like this just because of some external factors.

The film will now be looking at an extended first week of 53-54 crore nett. There is a holiday for Janmashtami on Thursday but with collections down to such low levels, the boost will be very limited. The film has done better in the big cities of Punjab state where even the lifetime will probably beat all the original Hindi content in these cities though the circuit figure will stay below BHOOL BHULAIYAA 2 as smaller cities of Punjab and cities of Haryana are not so good.

The opposite is a state like Gujarat where the film could not even collect 10 lakhs nett on Tuesday and this is a state which must be on board today for any chance of a big number.

The six 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
Sunday - 10,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 8,00,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 47,75,00,000 apprx
-----------------------------------
LAAL SINGH CHADDHA and RAKSHA BANDHAN are basically in free fall as collections go down 25-30% for both films on Wednesday and that is after huge falls on Tuesday. The Tuesday fall was always coming as after long holiday period when you have fallen its going to be a huge fall. But here they have fallen by big margins again post the holiday.

LAAL SINGH CHADDHA collected 1.50 crore nett on Wednesday to take its collections to 49.25 crore nett. There is a holiday for Janmashtami but that hardly matters as it hardly get much of a boost and the week might end at 51 crore nett.

The collections of LAAL SINGH CHADDHA till date are as follows.
Thursday - 11,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 8,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 10,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 8,00,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
