BADHAAI HO has recorded the seventh highest first week total of the year as it beat films like RAID, PAD MAN and SATYAMEVA JAYATE. The film collected 60.75 crore nett apprx in week one. The Delhi/UP and East Punjab numbers are the fifth highest of the year after the four big grossers SANJU, PADMAAVAT, RACE 3 and BAAGHI 2.

This is also the highest first week number of medium - small films except TANU WEDS MANU RETURNS which hit 69 crore nett. Most of these medium small films getting good first week numbers have come this year be it STREE, SATYAMEVA JAYATE, RAAZI or VEERE DI WEDDING.

BADHAAI HO got the benefit of that Dusshera holiday which has helped it over 60 crore nett but films like SATYAMEVA JAYATE and STREE also had some holiday benefit.

The top ten first week collections of 2018 are as follows.
1. Sanju - 2,00,16,00,000
2. Padmaavat - 1,42,35,00,000

BADHAAI HO was rock steady on Tuesday with collections similar to Monday, The film has now collected 56 crore nett in six days which is same as the RAAZI seven day total. STREE had a seven day total of 59 crore nett and that will also be beaten as BADHAAI HO could do 61 crore nett in seven days.

The extended first week is looking to be 65-66 crore nett and then remains to be seen where the film lands on Friday. The film continues to go strong in Delhi/UP and East Punjab where the six day collections are 17.50 crore nett and 7.25 crore nett respectively.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Thursday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 11,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 12,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 13,50,00,000 apprx

NAMASTE ENGLAND will close the first week at around 8 crore nett  and it is likely the film will stay below the 10 crore nett mark for lifetime business. The film has suffered the same fate in Overseas as in India.

The collections of NAMASTE ENGLAND till date are as follows.
Thursday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,35,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO had a good hold as it collected 5.50 crore nett on Monday which took its business to 50.75 crore nett. The film has dropped around 25% from the first day. North India continues to be excellent as Delhi/UP collected 1.75 crore nett and East Punjab was 65 lakhs nett.

The extended first week is looking to cross 65 crore nett and the second Friday will determine where the film is going and where it will stand with the likes of STREE and RAAZI. The competition is weak over the next two weeks and that is the plus for the film. The appreciation of the film is probably not at the STREE level on an all India basis though in Delhi NCR and East Punjab it is probably a level above STREE.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Thursday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 11,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 12,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 13,50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 5,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 50,75,00,000 apprx

NAMASTE ENGLAND crashed at the box office with collections of 50 lakhs nett on Monday and a total of 6.60 crore nett in five days. The film is a disaster but because of the revenue from digital, which has become a real plus, the film will hardly have losses for the makers. The film covered 53 crore from selling satellite, digital, music and overseas rights which is 5 crore short of the budget which will easily be covered from the rebate from United Kingdom. It will actually mean the limited revenue from India theatrical will be a plus. Its another matter that the buyers of overseas, satellite and digital will lose as the film has faced rejection. This has been the case with many film which have fared badly at the box office. YAMLA PAGLA DEEWANA PHIR SE released a few weeks back was a similar story.

The collections of NAMASTE ENGLAND till date are as follows.
Thursday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,35,00,000 apprx
Monday - 50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 6,60,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO had an excellent extended weekend of 44.50 crore nett with Delhi NCR and East Punjab showing extraordinary collections. There was limited growth on Sunday but that was because it was the fourth day and the business is less in the Sunday growth markets like Gujarat, Rajasthan, CP Berar and CI.

The extended weekend business is enough to ensure the film is a HIT and the weekdays will tell how big of a HIT the film can become. The film is going to do huge business in Delhi NCR and East Punjab but a lot depends on what level the appreciation is in other markets as these will have to do well also for a really big number.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Thursday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 11,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 12,25,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 13,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 44,50,00,000 apprx

NAMASTE ENGLAND grossed a little over 6 crore nett over its extended weekend and the weekend number is what it should have done on day one and that is on a worst case scenario. The collections of the film are over 3 crore nett less than NAMASTEY LONDON released 11 years ago.

The collections of NAMASTE ENGLAND till date are as follows.
Thursday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 1,35,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 6,10,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO has grossed a huge 31.25 crore nett apprx in three days with a shot at hitting 45 crore nett over the weekend. The day three collections will be around 12.25 crore nett. The film is on a miracle run in the North with Delhi/UP and East Punjab hardly dropping on Saturday despite coming of a holiday. These two markets are going to have a huge run till THUGS OF HINDOSTAN. Its rare for a film of this size to be this high.

The other big area Mumbai is also doing well though not a patch on Delhi/UP as Gujarat gives just decent collections. Overall this film will do more business in Delhi/UP than Mumbai and that is very rare for a big HIT film.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Thursday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Friday - 11,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 12,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 31,25,00,000 apprx

NAMASTE ENGLAND dropped on its third day and is going to wrap with ridiculously low figures. The first film in this series NAMASTEY LONDON with Akshay Kumar grossed around 9 crore nett in its first weekend and that was in 2007 and here in 2018 that 9 crore nett could be the lifetime of this film.

The collections of NAMASTE ENGLAND till date are as follows.
Thursday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 4,75,00,000 apprx

BADHAAI HO had excellent collections on day two as it collected 11.50-11.75 crore nett. North India went crazy as East Punjab grossed around 1.75 crore nett and Delhi/UP went to 4 crore nett. These circuits are bigger than what many of the films this year collected on any day. The total collections of the film is almost 19 crore nett.

The film is already a sure shot HIT with this sort of growth coming from a partial holiday thought the North was not a holiday on Thursday. There is chance that the film could be around 40 crore nett over the four day weekend though its pretty sure Saturday will not see the normal growth that content films see as Friday is so huge. A double digit Saturday in itself will be big for this film.

The collections of BADHAAI HO till date are as follows.
Friday - 7,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 11,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 18,75,00,000 apprx

NAMASTE ENGLAND had sealed its fate on the first day with such low collections. It has gone up on day two but it hardly matters as the film is doing business that is far too low. The trailers were not exciting but the business is far lower than anyone could have expected. The only thing the film can do is keep on having an upward trend but this could be hard on Saturday as it is coming off a holiday on Friday.

The collections of NAMASTE ENGLAND till date are as follows.
Friday - 1,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 3,50,00,000 apprx
