MAIDAAN collected 1.60 crore nett on Tuesday to take its total to 24 crore nett in six days plus paid previews. The films edged up a little from its Monday collections but it was minimal growth.

The hold hardly matters as its come from such low numbers. The first week looks to be heading for 27 crore nett and this is an eight day week with paid previews.

There is likely to be only film in whole of May which is likely to be release which will get a decent release in terms of screens and that is TEHRAN if it comes mid May. So, basically the flow of films starts mid June which will allow MAIDAAN to stick around possibly through May but the collections will be next to nothing.

The collections of MAIDAAN till date are as follows.
Wednesday (Paid Previews) - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 4,00,00,000 apprx 
Friday - 3,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,85,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 6,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 1,60,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 24,20,00,000 apprx

The Eid releases could not benefit much from the partial holiday of Ram Navami as MAIDAAN went up by 25% as it collected 2 crore nett.

This now takes MAIDAAN to 26.25 crore nett. The combined total of both films is 72 crore nett and 100 crore nett combined is not a foregone conclusion though with open period and incentives which will come, you would think the films can at least do 100 crore nett combined.

The week was a fantastic week for collections with first the Eid period and then a weekday boost from Ram Navami but it has all gone all wrong with content of both films not appealing. The marginal jumps on Ram Navami shows the rejection of both films.

It will be testing times for exhibitors as these two films were supposed to give some breathing space with limited releases over the election period but both films were pretty much dead on arrival.

In Overseas, MAIDAAN hardly had any collections on the weekdays and will be practically out in week one outside US/Canada where it is comparatively better.
