SRIKANTH saw a good hold post its election boost as it collected 1.25 crore nett on its second Tuesday and this puts the film on course towards a HIT if the film can hold collections similar to this on its third Friday. The collections mainly fell in Mumbai on Tuesday as it had the election boost on Monday. The NCR and Punjab are was steady on Tuesday

The film is now looking at a second week of 13.50 crore nett which will take it over 30.50 crore nett in two weeks. Now, its about picking up 8-9 crore nett in week three which will take the film towards 50 crore nett or at least very close. If the film maintains over the next couple of weeks, it could end up with higher numbers than MAIDAAN

There was nothing expected post Eid until the main releases start in June but box office can never be predicted and this dullest period may actually come out with a HIT film though it has to get around the 50 crore nett mark.

Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx

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

SRIKANTH had a good second week at it collected almost 14 crore nett which is less than 20% down from the first week. The film got a bump up in collections on Monday due to elections in certain cities and then Thursday was another holiday for Buddha Purnima which gave it a little boost across many circuits.

The film now stands at a solid 31 crore nett after two weeks and if the third Friday holds well the film may well emerge a HIT as then its likely the film would be around or near that 40 crore nett mark by the end of the third week. It will also mean a shot at 50 crore nett.

The film faced competition yesterday as the Hollywood film FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA released on Thursday but was pretty much unaffected. There is a Hindi release today with BHAIYYA JI which has had a pretty sizeable release for its face value but opening is very dull. The opening is a little better in UP and Bihar but when you have a localized film, then it should be opening far better in these pockets. Basically the film is not for multiplexes and has no face value for the single screens. Non cast films have to be made for multiplex audiences and that is pretty much what SRIKANTH is.
