CIRKUS has seen 2022 end on a disastrous note as collections cashed further in the second weekend despite it being the New Year period. The film could only collect a little more than DRISHYAM 2 which was running in week seven. In whichever cinemas both films were playing, DRISHYAM 2 easily had the higher collections.

If it was not for the huge run of AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER, then this Christmas/New Year period would have also gone down the drain after the horrible results of Eid, Raksha Bandhan/Independence Day and Diwali. Even AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER could have done better in the Hindi circuits considering the period. So on real terms, the business has turned out to be below the mark this holiday period as well but not as bad as others because at least something has run.

The collections of CIRKUS will not reach the 40 crore nett mark and that pretty much sums up the film. Maharashtra has done a little better but that hardly matters. The collections in North India may be the lowest ever for such a big film released on a big holiday period.

The collections of CIRKUS till date are as follows.

Friday - 90,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 1,40,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx

--------------------------

CIRKUS is continuing to run due to the lack of releases and its business on its Third Friday was pretty much the same as the day before as there was no new film. If there was a release then this film would have been out of theatres.

The film collected around 30 lakhs nett on its third Friday taking its total to 34 crore nett plus. The film is still short of 35 crore nett and will probably reach than on Sunday. The lifetime business of the film will not reach the 40 crore nett mark.

Mumbai circuit should close with around 15 crore nett while Delhi/UP and East Punjab will be awful as it finishes at 7 crore and 3 crore nett respectively.
