HOUSEFULL 5 collected 37 crore nett in it second week showing a 67% drop week on week. The film showed a good jump on Tuesday due to the discounted rates but collections were quick to go down the next day as the film faced a huge drop. This led the buy one get one free scheme to be activated the next day and these sort of things pretty much show that the film is not doing well.

The collections of the film stand at 150 crore nett in two weeks and the film still has some work to do to hit the average mark. If collections were to capitulate with the release of SITAARE ZAMEEN PAR, then this would not even be hitting the AVERAGE mark. There is some sort of perception play in today's digital world of a blockbuster hit but that hardly matters as the public has seen the film. So, it knows its worth and the facts are not hidden from industry and its only these two that really matter.

If the film gets to the average mark, it can thank that Eid period From Sat - Mon where the film managed to get good collections in the Eid areas. Otherwise, it could have been 5-10% lower. The film has faced the same fate in Overseas as there it was a very good weekend due to the Eid factor in Gulf but collections came down fast post the weekend.

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

HOUSEFULL 5 struggled on its third Friday as it collected 1.25 crore nett as the release of SITAARE ZAMEEN PAR hit the film even though at most places, the new release hardly took an initial. The drop is more than 40% previous day but as appreciation not there it gets hugely affected even by a film like SITAARE ZAMEEN PAR.

The little positive for the film is that it will escape the FLOP tag as that is what it would have been if the collections had capitulated, But with this number, it should at least manage to add some collections this week to finish although they will not be in double digits. Overall, the film is looking to be an AVERAGE/BELOW AVERAGE fare which is not a good result for the film.

The total of the film now is 151.25 crore nett which is well below expectations especially considering the film had almost 80 crore nett in its first weekend and is yet to even get double of its first weekend. It may get there by the end of its run but even then its hardly a result. The film is struggling to reach the numbers of RAID 2 and is likely to end lower unless it manages to get another 14 crore nett which looks hard from here.
