HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI is an AVERAGE fare as it held steady in its third weekend with a drop of under 50% which is better than its second week trend. The film is not a major success or anything but in an industry which has seen 157 releases till date in 2016 and just nine films do average or better business, its not a bad result. Basically prior to HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI if a chart is made of the top ten films of 2016 then number ten spot would be filled by a flop film and now HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI has that spot and is at least not a flop. We have to go back to 2002 to see such a low success count in the first eight months of the year. The business of HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI till date is as follows.
Week One - 17,48,00,000
Week Two - 6,71,00,000
Third Weekend - 2,25,00,000 apprx (3 Days)
TOTAL - 26,44,00,000

Meanwhile, A FLYING JATT fell badly in its second weekend as it dropped 90-95% and grossed around 1.25 crore nett. The film will finish with lifetime business of under 35 crore nett.

A FLYING JATT continued with low collections on Tuesday as it grossed 1.75 crore nett apprx taking its total to a little over 31 crore nett. The extended first week of eight days is looking to be around 34 crore nett while the seven day business will be 32.75 crore nett apprx. This basically means the eight day week one business of the film is less than the three day weekend of BAAGHI. The first week (7 Days) business of HEROPANTI was 34.86 crore nett so it does not even compare well with which was the first release of Tiger Shroff and at that time was an unknown. Below are the first six day figures of A FLYING JATT:
Thursday - 6,75,00,000
Friday - 5,50,00,000
Saturday - 7,00,00,000
Sunday - 8,25,00,000
Monday - 2,00,00,000
Tuesday - 1,75,00,000
TOTAL - 31,25,00,000

The biggest setback to the film was the initial of the film which should have been much better. It was already being said that Tiger Shroff had become a mass star in single screens. But this does not happen after a couple of films it takes time to become a star with masses. A FLYING JATT proved that as it did not perform any better in single screens than in multiplexes.
---------------------
A FLYING JATT had a poor first week collecting 33.50 crore nett in its first week. The weekday collections of the film had very low occupancy and it hardly added 6 crore nett over the weekdays. The film is a setback to the career of Tiger Shroff whose BAAGHI just 4-5 months back had taken the most effective initial of 2016 - was universal and excellent against the cost of the film. Here the biggest problem was initial, an action film just can't afford to open to such low numbers as they can't grow vis-a-vis content films or films of other genres. The performance of  A FLYING JATT was poor across the board with probably CI having the best figures comparatively. Delhi and East Punjab should have done much better due to the Punjabi flavour but collections were very dull there also. The film has a heavy reduction of shows in the second week so won't add much from here on.

A FLYING JATT had better collections on Saturday and despite being day three it had the best figures of its run as it just edged past the first day figures of the film. Below is first three day business of A FLYING JATT.
Thursday - 6,75,00,000
Friday - 5,50,00,000
Saturday - 7,00,00,000
TOTAL - 19,25,00,000

The growth on Saturday is around 25-30% which is pretty healthy as its not the type of genre that normally has an upward trajectory especially on day three. The difference here is the promos made it look like a kids film and its possible that the family and kids audience has come on Saturday rather on the Thursday and Friday which were weekdays though day one was a partial holiday.

The film should continue with the upward trend on Sunday and although the figures can't be called good, the four day figures will be much better than what would have been expected after the first day as that could have remained the highest day for the film.

The film is performing best in North and Central India markets but the the collections in North are nowhere near what they should be. The markets in West, South and East are dull with Gujarat in the western region being better than Maharashtra.
--------------------------
A FLYING JATT managed better collections on Saturday and Sunday but still it is low for its extended four day weekend. The collections that it has put up in four days was needed to be done in three days for a decent result. The only plus is that it has held through the weekend and collections on Saturday and Sunday were higher than day one which was a partial holiday. Sometimes films struggle over an extended weekend that open on a holiday and don't get an initial. Still though Saturday and Sunday were better, the growth is probably not big enough to suggest strong holds in the weekdays though it remains to be seen what happens. Below are the extended first weekend figures of A FLYING JATT.
Thursday - 6,75,00,000
Friday - 5,50,00,000
Saturday - 7,00,00,000
Sunday - 8,25,00,000
TOTAL - 27,50,00,000

The collections of the film did not fare well anywhere and the main problem was North as even if others did not perform at least in North there should have been decent collections. Tiger Shroff who is two films old has not been able to penetrate the North market as both HEROPANTI and BAAGHI scored better in Gujarat, Maharashtra, CP, CI and Nizam than other areas.

The collections of A FLYING JATT fell on day two by around 15-20%. The places which had a holiday on Thursday saw bigger drops. than other places. The film really needed to hold at levels of day one. Below is first two day business of A FLYING JATT.
Friday - 6,75,00,000
Saturday - 5,50,00,000
TOTAL - 12,25,00,000

The film goes into the weekend and and needs the support of the family and kids audience to get some sort of respectable four day figure. Basically the Saturday number has to go back to day one levels or above and that will enable Sunday to grow well. This scenario would take it to around 27-28 crore nett which is still not good but at least it would give it some chance of a run after the weekend is out.

The film is performing best in North and Central India markets but the the collections in North are nowhere near what they should be. The markets in West, South and East are dull with Gujarat in the western region being better than Maharashtra.

A FLYING JATT had  a low opening day of around 6.75 crore nett despite it being a partial holiday for Janmashtami. The holiday does not seem to have aided the film much although only the collections of day two will tell. The other two main films playing RUSTOM and HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI did see minor jumps in collections on Thursday but they were collecting at lower levels. The film did manage to build up some expectations as the last film of Tiger Shroff had opened very well at around 12 crore nett and also did well in the long run which made A FLYING JATT a hotter film than it would have been before the release of BAAGHI. The collections were low all over with even North India not really performing.

Tiger Shroff has a better initial pull in West and Central India as per the results of his first two films while North is comparatively weaker so this could be the reason why the collections are so low in Delhi and Punjab despite it being a Sardar film. The area should be out performing even if the film is not up to the mark like a SINGH IS BLIING. This is not the case for A FLYING JATT. The film has an extended weekend and its chances rest on the family audience over the weekend, it basically has to improve its collection either today or Saturday and get to that 30 crore nett mark over four days. The second day will be crucial for the film and a drop from these levels will leave it with little chance.
