BALA had a good second week of 26 crore nett and takes it two week total 95 crore nett plus. The film should just about get into the SUPER HIT category as long as the third Friday fall is not huge. The film has done well but it has been on the strength of the first five days where it got the bulk of its collections but probably has not held the way a concept film should. The holds are more like a big comedy or action HIT film. The low costs and the first few days with holidays have worked in its favour.

DREAM GIRL had more commercial aspects to it so CHHICHHORE is probably the film which is more in a similar zone to BALA. But the holds are much lower than that film as that film did 80 crore plus after its first week while here it may be 50 crore nett after the first week.

The collections of BALA till date are as follows.
Week One - 69,43,00,000 
Friday - 3,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 6,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 8,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 2,25,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 1,80,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 1,60,00,000 apprx
Second Week - 25,90,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 95,33,00,000 apprx

BALA collected 2.25 crore nett on its second Monday as it dropped around 40% from the Friday. The total collections of the film so far are nearly 90 crore nett and it has crossed the business of LUKA CHUPPI in just 11 days. The second week should collect around 26 crore nett.

The film does not have the legs of a CHHICHHORE or a DREAM GIRL and this Monday drop means the figures of STREE or RAAZI are probably not going to be reached but the film is still a SUPER HIT film due to the strong opening week where it got holiday boost on Monday and Tuesday and there has been a good follow through.

The collections of BALA till date are as follows.

BALA had a good second weekend of 18.25 crore nett and took its total to 87.50 crore nett. The film is scoring well in the metro multiplexes but the difference between BALA and DREAM GIRL will the multiplexes in places like Lucknow and Indore where the collections were better for DREAM GIRL. The film will see around 91-92% of its all India business coming from multiplexes which is higher than DREAM GIRL.

The film will hit the 100 crore nett mark in its third weekend and then its about how well it can sustain and can it get close to films like STREE and RAAZI. The film scored over those films in the first week but the second week will less.

BALA showed strong growth on its second Saturday of 75% to collect 6.50 crore nett which takes its total to 79.50 crore nett. The collections on the second Saturday were just 50 lakh less than the new release MARJAAVAAN as Saturday is the best day for the bigger multiplexes and this film is performing best in these multiplexes. Generally the film has done well at multiplexes be it in Delhi or Dehradun.

BALA will cross the 100 crore nett mark probably in the third weekend but will not reach the numbers of a DREAM GIRL or BADHAAI HO. The target will probably be to finish in the range of films like RAAZI and STREE though that will not be easy as there is a flow of releases in the next few weeks.

The collections of BALA till date are as follows.
Friday - 9,50,00,000 apprx

BALA had a good hold on its second Friday as it collected 3.75 crore nett which has taken the total of the film to 73 crore nett. The hold is not as strong as a CHHICHHORE which is the top smaller film of the year nor is it as strong as DREAM GIRL as both these films were above 5 crore nett on the second Friday but not many of the smaller concept films are going to hold like these films did.

But the film is better than LUKA CHUPPI which is the third best film in this zone and BALA will probably cross the business of LUKA CHUPPI before the end of its second week. BALA should comfortably cross the 100 crore nett mark and if this sort of trend continues over the third week, it will emerge a SUPER HIT film and the eighth biggest HIT of the year after KABIR SINGH, WAR, URI, HOUSEFULL 4, MISSION MANGAL, CHHICHHORE and DREAM GIRL.
