MAIDAAN will hit the 50 crore nett by the end of the week and that will be it for the film with a finish just a little above 50 crore nett. The film trended okay after its first week for three weeks but as soon as a new release came with SRIKANTH, the film saw a drop in collections.

The 50 crore nett mark has been a struggle for the film as the mass circuits did not just collect and it may well be that a film like SRIKANTH will come out with higher numbers in the likes of East Punjab, Rajasthan and CI. MAIDAAN may not be for the circuits but SRIKANTH is also not a film for these areas and on top of it, it does not have star value.

The business is a little better in Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata and that too in the bigger cinemas and the football factor probably helped here especially in Kolkata. The film has managed to trend better than BADE MIYAN CHOTE MIYAN but collections remained lower except West Bengal and Mysore and maybe Mumbai circuit.

The collections of MAIDAAN till date are as follows.

Week One - 26,22,00,000 (8 days plus PP)

Week Two - 9,79,00,000

Week Three - 7,62,00,000

Week Four - 4,14,00,000

Week Five - 1.49,00,000

Week Six - 75,00,000 apprx (expected)
