CHANDU CHAMPION had good growth on Saturday as the film jumped around 60% to collecte 6.50-6.75 crore nett. However, the collections remain low with just 11 crore nett on the board in the first two days. The two day numbers of the film are pretty similar to last week's MUNJYA and that pretty much tells the story of the film.

The Saturday growth of 50% was a must for the film and it has managed that as anything lower than that and it could have been curtains pretty early. Now with this growth, the film can consolidate on Sunday as growth should be better than a normal Sunday due to Monday being a holiday and Sunday night shows being better than a normal Sunday.

The film will be depending on where the collections land post the holiday on Monday and even then, there will be a long way to go for the film. This long road is down to the failure of the film to get an opening. It is fine for smaller films not to open as they can get somewhere on the trend but for these bigger films, its asking a lot for them to show 20-30% weekly drops. This Saturday growth basically keeps the film afloat but just about.

The film remains behind MUNJYA in most mass centres despite that film in second week and CHANDU CHAMPION being in the first weekend. It is mainly better in the metros be it Mumbai city, Delhi NCR or Bangalore but that also is not exactly an achievement. The film is worse in Overseas as day one was pretty much the same as a film like MR & MRS MAHI with the US/Canada market which has best chances being under $100k.

The collections of CHANDU CHAMPION are as follows.

Friday - 4,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 6,75,00,000 apprx
