BADHAAI HO is going very strong from Monday onward as its weekday collections are higher than the Friday. The poor response to THUGS OF HINDOSTAN has meant that the film has got a big push and it could now cross the business of STREE.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Week One - 65,33,00,000 (8 Days)
Week Two - 27,56,00,000 
Week Three - 15,16,00,000
Friday - 1,35,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Fourth Week - 8,85,00,000 apprx (5 Days)
TOTAL - 1,16,90,00,000 apprx

Its the same story with ANDHADHUN as it holds strong in its sixth week. It had seemed impossible that this film would reach 70 crore nett but now it will get there pretty easily as it goes into week seven with rock steady collections.

The collections of ANDHADHUN till date are as follows.
Week One - 27,37,00,000
Week Two - 22,21,00,000
Week Three - 10,43,00,000
Week Four - 4,52,00,000 
Week Five - 3,00,00,000 apprx
Friday - 25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 40,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 25,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 25,00,000 apprx
Sixth Week - 1,65,00,000 apprx (5 days)
TOTAL - 69,18,00,000 apprx

Even a film like BAAZAAR is doing decent business on the weekdays. This film has a chance of a 25 crore nett close as will now run for another week or so.

BAAZAAR will do business of 5.50 crore nett in its second week and that will be it for the film. The film has very low occupancy and the only reason it has some collections in week two is because there are no other options for exhibitors. The very low occupancy will ensure hardly any screenings when THUGS OF HINDOSTAN releases.

The collections of BAAZAAR till date are as follow
Week One - 16,42,00,000 
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,30,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,40,00,000 apprx
Monday - 50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 20,62,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO grossed 1.25 crore nett on its third Monday and will gross around 13.50-14 crore nett in its third week and is probably looking at a finish of 110 crore nett.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Week One - 65,33,00,000 (8 Days)
Week Two - 27,56,00,000 
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 1,03,64,00,000 apprx

ANDHADHUN will do around  3 crore nett in its fifth week but there will be little limited collections afterwards. It will fold up at around 68 crore. The footfalls of the film will just about get over 50 lakh which is well short of a film in a similar zone KAHAANI which had close to 70 lakh footfalls.

The collections of ANDHADHUN till date are as follows.
Week One - 27,37,00,000 
Week Two - 22,21,00,000
Week Three - 10,43,00,000 
Week Four - 4,52,00,000 apprx
Friday - 40,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 90,00,000 apprx
Monday - 35,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 66,93,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR hit the 20 crore nett mark after ten days mainly because of the lack of competition. The film has a few more days to add to its collection as will be out of most theaters when THUGS OF HINDOSTAN  releases on Thursday. The film has crossed 9 crore nett in Mumbai which is far better than other circuits.

The collections of BAAZAAR till date are as follow
Week One - 16,42,00,000 
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,30,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,40,00,000 apprx
Second Weekend - 3,70,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 20,12,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO had a good third weekend of 9.50 crore nett though the growth on Saturday and Sunday was not like previous weekends due to pre Diwali. The film has collected 102.50 crore nett so far.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Week One - 65,33,00,000 (8 Days)
Week Two - 27,56,00,000 
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 1,02,39,00,000 apprx

ANDHADHUN added 2 crore nett apprx in its fifth weekend which is decent. The film will finish at 28 crore nett plus in Mumbai circuit which is excellent. Delhi/UP will finish around 14.50 crore nett.

The collections of ANDHADHUN till date are as follows.
Week One - 27,37,00,000 
Week Two - 22,21,00,000
Week Three - 10,43,00,000

Sunday - 90,00,000 apprx
Fourth Weekend - 2,05,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 66,58,00,000 apprx

The growth on Saturday was less than normal for all films as it is pre Diwali. The box office will now pick up again on Thursday when THUGS OF HINDOSTAN hits the theatres.

BAAZAAR went up around 25-30% on its second Saturday and has grossed around 18.75 crore nett till date.

The collections of BAAZAAR till date are as follow
Week one - 16,42,00,000 apprx
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,30,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 18,72,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO was doubling up the previous Saturday's but with Diwali coming soon it only showed growth of 50-55%.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Week One - 65,33,00,000 (8 Days)
Week Two - 27,56,00,000
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 98,64,00,000 apprx

ANDHADHUN also showed less growth on Saturday compared to the Saturday's gone before.

The collections of ANDHADHUN till date are as follows.
Week One - 27,37,00,000
Week Two - 22,21,00,000
Week Three - 10,43,00,000
Week Four - 4,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 40,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 65,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 65,56,00,000 apprx

The holdover films like BAAZAAR, BADHAAI HO and ANDHADHUN all held there collections similar to the day before due to lack of competition. There were around 8 new releases but no one is even aware of these films so there is hardly any chance of collections.

BAAZAAR which has not been appreciated has actually held pretty well on its second Friday with business around 1 crore nett mark. This should mean the film can get over the 20 crore nett mark though that is still bad. If there had been some decent releases then this film would have been out. The collections this Friday show how lack of genuine releases can really help holdover films irrespective of appreciation. It can be said there were other releases last week like KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA and 5 WEDDINGS and those have not held but those are in the same bracket as the films this week and you cant call them genuine releases.

The collections of BAAZAAR till date are as follow
Week one - 15,70,00,000 apprx
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 16,70,00,000

BADHAAI HO took its total to 95 crore nett as collections were similar to Thursday. The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Week One - 65,33,00,000 (8 Days)
Week Two - 27,56,00,000
Friday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 95,14,00,000 apprx

ANDHADHUN also had similar collections to Thursday as it collected 40 lakhs nett apprx. The film is looking at a lifetime total of 67 crore nett.

The collections of ANDHADHUN till date are as follows.
Week One - 27,37,00,000 
Week Two - 22,21,00,000
Week Three - 10,43,00,000
Week Four - 4,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 40,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 64,91,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR had a poor first week as it collected 15.75 crore nett. The film had to hold better on weekdays to stand a chance but a drop of nearly 50% on Monday settled the fate of the film. Mumbai circuit has fared better with Mumbai city and Gujarat faring better than the rest of the country. The collections in Mumbai circuit were close to 7 crore nett while Delhi/UP was just 3 crore nett.

The first week collections of BAAZAAR are as follows.
Friday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 4,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 1,35,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 1,20,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 1,10,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 15,70,00,000 apprx

KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA is a total washout as it collected a little over 1 crore nett in week one. The film is out of most theatres after a weeks run.

The collections of KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA till date are as follows.
Friday - 20,00,000 apprx
Saturday 25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 10,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 10,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 8,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 7,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 1,05,00,000 apprx

The other releases like 5 WEDDINGS, CHAL JAA BAPU, DASSEHRA, GAON - THE VILLAGE NO MORE, LATEEF TO LADEN and THE JOURNEY OF KARMA 5 were even worse than KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA.

BAAZAAR continued with poor business on Tuesday and is heading for a first week of 15.75 crore nett. The first week in Mumbai will be around 6.75 crore nett which is respectable though cant be called good. Delhi/UP will hardly reach 3 crore nett which is very poor.

The first weekend collections of BAAZAAR are as follows.
Friday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 4,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 1,35,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 13,40,00,000 apprx

KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA is a total washout as it heads for a 1 crore nett plus first week and that will be its lifetime business also.

The collections of KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA till date are as follows.
Friday - 20,00,000 apprx
Saturday 25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 10,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 10,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 90,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR had the normal drop on Monday as it collected 1.50 crore nett which is a low collections. The film had to be near its Friday total but that always looked difficult as collections were actually much lower than they looked in most regions and the bulk of the collections were coming from Mumbai circuit.

The film is heading for a first of 16 crore nett and then it will have another six days to get some collections. The way it has gone is that it will mainly have collection in Mumbai in week two as other places are generally low occupancy so even without much competition its not getting much screen time. A 20 crore nett final total looks the best bet for the film.

The first weekend collections of BAAZAAR are as follows.
Friday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 4,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 12,25,00,000 apprx

KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA is a total washout as it goes down on Monday and will finish its run with business of a little over 1 crore nett

The collections of KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA till date are as follows.
Friday - 20,00,000 apprx
Saturday 25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 10,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 80,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR had a poor weekend of 10.50 crore nett though it is probably better than what most would have expected for this film. It will struggle on the weekdays as its a one circuit film with Mumbai doing far better than the other circuits. Mumbai has had a weekend of around 4.50 crore nett.

The film is very similar to LOVEYATRI but at a bit higher level. That film was running in its third week in Mumbai but not in other circuits and here the film will struggle to go into week three anywhere because of THUGS OF HINDOSTAN. The only real plus for the film is that at least it has some audience and is not a total washout like the KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA and 5 WEDDINGS.

The first weekend collections of BAAZAAR are as follows.
Friday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 4,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 10,75,00,000 apprx

The other releases like 5 WEDDINGS, CHAL JAA BAPU, DASSEHRA, GAON - THE VILLAGE NO MORE, KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA and THE JOURNEY OF KARMA are total washouts. The one with best collections is KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA but despite the collections it will be the biggest disaster among these as cost is highest. It had a weekend of 70 lakhs nett. 5 WEDDINGS collected around 50 lakhs nett.

The collections of KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA till date are as follows.
Friday - 20,00,000 apprx
Saturday 25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 70,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR went up around 35% on its second day as it collected 3.75 crore nett which has taken its two day business to 6.50 crore nett. The collections are not good but could have been worse considering the start it took.

The film is putting up respectable collections in Mumbai circuit with over 40% of the all India business coming from Mumbai. There have not been many films made on the stock exchange and the business of BAAZAAR pretty much tells why. Its very much restricted appeal. The film will find it tough on Monday as Mumbai circuit does get hit on Monday and the business in Mumbai is respectable, its not running riot in the circuit for it to take it through.

The first two day collections of BAAZAAR are as follows.
Friday - 2,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 6,50,00,000

The other releases like 5 WEDDINGS, CHAL JAA BAPU, DASSEHRA, GAON - THE VILLAGE NO MORE, KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA and THE JOURNEY OF KARMA are total washouts with Saturday bringing hardly any collections. The one with best collections is KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA but despite the collections it will be the biggest disaster among these as cost is highest.

The collections of KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA till date are as follows.
Friday - 20,00,000 apprx
Saturday 25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 45,00,000 apprx

BAAZAAR collected in the 2.50-.2.75 crore nett range which is a poor collection but its around 1 crore nett better than it looked in the morning when it opened. The film managed to improve its collections in the Mumbai/Gujarat belt.

This is probably because the film is based on the stock exchange and has Gujrati language in the film. The film is very dull in the North with Delhi/UP picking up just 50 lakhs and East Punjab 20 lakhs nett. Mumbai circuit will be more than double of Delhi/UP with collections being around 1.25 crore nett. The film is the best opening for Saif Ali Khan in recent times with his other films being around the 1 crore nett mark.

The film has a pick up on day one but it is very regional so there has to be a doubt that the film can really go on. It is a mainly a multiplex film and for them you need Mumbai and Delhi on board as mass centres are not going to help much but here its looks like just Mumbai has a chance as Delhi collections are too low.

BAAZAAR was far better than the other releases like 5 WEDDINGS, CHAL JAA BAPU, DASSEHRA, GAON - THE VILLAGE NO MORE, KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA and THE JOURNEY OF KARMA were total washouts.

The best of the lot was KAASHI - IN SEARCH OF GANGA which collected 20 lakhs nett. Despite having the best collections among its competitors it is still a huge disaster which means its best not to say much about the others.

The apprx collections of these films were as follows.
5 Weddings -10 lakhs
Chal Jaa Bapu - under 1 lakh.
Dasshera - 2 lakh
Gaon - The Village No More - under 1 lakh
Kaashi - 20 lakh
The Journey Of Karma - 5 lakh
