It was a shortened week as all cinemas shut on Tuesday while at places cinemas has started to shut Friday. This affected all releases but the biggest casualties were ANGREZI MEDIUM and BAAGHI 3. The other films were towards the end of their respective runs and were collection in lakhs only.

ANGREZI MEDIUM collected just 9.35 crore nett apprx in week one and the film is a total goner as the film got unlucky as it got hit in the first weekend. The film could add some business when cinemas reopen but it will depend on the competition at the time. But with a under 10 crore nett week, there is nowhere the film can go.

BAAGHI 3 had a huge fall in week two as it collected just 6 crore nett in week two to take its total to 92.75 crore nett. Going by the Friday number and adding Delhi and Kerala to the Friday number number, it would have been a 17 crore nett week for the film if all went normal. This would have been a comfortable 100 crore nett plus film if the run did not get cut short.

The business of BAAGHI 3 till date is as follows.
Week One - 86,73,00,000
Week Two - 6,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 92,73,00,000 apprx

THAPPAD also had a huge fall in week three as it collected under 50 lakhs nett. If it was a normal week then the film could have collected around 1.75 crore nett which would have been enough to take it over 30 crore nett but hardly makes a difference to the final result of the film.

The collections THAPPAD till date are as follows.
Week One - 20,89,00,000
Week Two - 8,51,00,000
Week Three - 40,00,000 apprx
TOTAL -  29,80,00,000 apprx

BAAGHI 3 added 20 lakhs nett on Monday and then cinemas across the country shut on Tuesday. This has left the film on a little over 92.50 crore nett and whether it can add to this depends on what happens when cinemas re - open.

The film has remained well short of 100 crore nett due to the Coronavirus scenario and that mark looks very difficult now. There would be a chance if there is no new release when cinemas open and BAAGHI 3 gets close to the number of screens it was playing on over the weekend. But what the scenario will be when cinemas open is an unknown.

The collections of BAAGHI 3 till date are as follows.
Week One - 86,73,00,000
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 20,00,000 apprx
Second Week - 5,95,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 92,68,00,000 apprx

BAAGHI 3 saw a huge drop in collections in the second weekend as the Coronavirus scare has led to cinemas shutting down. The film collected 2.25 crore nett on Friday but collections went down over the weekend though Sunday managed to hold despite the closure of cinemas in some states on Sunday. The film would have done a 20 crore nett week if everything was normal which would have put in line for HIT status with a 115 crore nett plus finish but now that is just a dream.

The film did still managed to collect well in UP and Gujarat over the weekend and it had a 20 lakh nett plus number in Bihar on Saturday which was good but cinemas shut there on Saturday. The closure in Gujarat/Saurashtra will hit bad on Monday and collections could fall below 50 lakh nett.

The collections of BAAGHI 3 till date are as follows.
Week One - 86,73,00,000
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Second Weekend - 5,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 92,48,00,000 apprx

BAAGHI 3 dropped on Saturday due to the Coronavirus effect on state governments shutting cinemas in various states. The film collected around 1.75 crore nett on day two to take its nine day total to 91 crore nett. The film may not have improved like it should have but it was still cruising to a 100 crore nett plus number but now that is up in the air.

The way things are going, there will be more states closing down which will bring the business down further and the 100 crore nett mark will probably depend about what happens when cinemas reopen and will BAAGHI 3 be played then. The little plus for the film is that the best areas of the film UP and Gujarat/Saurashtra are still playing and today these two alone will give the film around 1 crore nett combined. It could even be more than 1 crore nett.

The collections of BAAGHI 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 17,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 15,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 19,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 8,75,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 13,50,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 7,50,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Week One - 87,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,15,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 91,15,00,000 apprx

BAAGHI 3 had a big drop in collections on Friday as it collected 2-2.25 crore nett which takes it total business to 89.50 crore nett. The film had a huge fall in collections in the multiplexes but places like UP, Rajasthan, MP and Gujarat/Saurashtra have contributed almost 1.25 crore nett and such a contribution is very rare for any film.

The drop in collections does mean that the film will not find it hard to become an outright hit as it needed to be 3 crore nett plus on its second Friday but it is still on course to be an AVERAGE/SEMI HIT film unless closure of cinemas makes it difficult for the film to collect over the next week or so.

The collections of BAAGHI 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 17,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 15,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 19,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 8,75,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 13,50,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 7,50,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Week One - 87,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,15,00,000
