The film has collected well in multiplexes of big centres but it was the business of multiplexes and single screens in B and C centres which let the film down. The collections across the Hindi belt were not up to the mark. Only Bihar was good but that had holidays for Puja. Gujarat, CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan and UP all had average to above average figures which is not good for a film of this scale.
-------------------
HAIDER grossed a decent 35 crore nett in its extended eight day first week and held up fairly well over the eight days but the problem for the film is its very niche and the collections are coming mainly from the premium multiplexes and so there is a limit to where the film can go.

The film has done its best business in the Delhi NCR belt with the Delhi/UP and East Punjab circuits recording decent figures, Mysore was also fair while West Bengal was helped by holidays for Puja. Mumbai circuit was the disappointment as Mumbai city and Pune should have done better. The mass circuits were dull.

HAIDER will have a decent hold in week two and should have lifetime business of around 50 crore nett which is an average result.

The acid test is tomorrow as till date it has had a good trend but has to consolidate after the holiday period. The way it is going it will do better in Delhi NCR and East Punjab.
----------------------
BANG BANG (Hindi) held up fairly well on Tuesday. The collections are slightly on lower side for such a big film but if it shows normal weekday falls from now and has a good second weeeknd it will pull through. The approx business of the Hindi version of BANG BANG till date is as follows.
Thursday - 24,75,00,000
Friday - 20,50,00,000
Saturday - 17,00,00,000
Sunday - 18,00,00,000
Monday - 13,25,00,000
Tuesday - 8,25,00,000
TOTAL - 1,01,75,00,000

The film has so far grossed around 102 crore nett in six days and the week should cross 115 crore nett and then it remains to be seen whether it can go over 150 crore nett for lifetime business
----------------------
HAIDER had fair collections on Tuesday. The film is doing decent business at premium multiplexes of metros. The approx business of the of HAIDER till date is as follows.
Thursday - 5,25,00,000
Friday - 6,00,00,000
Saturday - 5,50,00,000
Sunday - 6,25,00,000
Monday - 4,25,00,000
Tuesday - 3,00,00,000
TOTAL - 30,25,00,000

The flm will gross around 35 crore nett in the first week which is decent and as the film has just 1 or 2 screens at multiplexes it will hold the screens well which should mean a healthy second week total..

Tuesday is the key for HAIDER because the way BANG BANG has gone it is unlikely to sustain. So if HAIDER can sustain which is a possibility it is likely to good business until the release of HAPPY NEW YEAR without much opposition as the main opposition BANG BANG will be struggling.

The three day weekend is well behind films like KICK and SINGHAM RETURNS but slightly better than JAI HO.
-------------------------
HAIDER continued with a good trend on day two as it grossed around 5.50 crore nett. The collections were better on day three than day one. The collections are on lower side but it has held up well over the first three days. The approx business of the Hindi version of HAIDER till date is as follows.
Thursday - 5,25,00,000
Friday - 6,00,00,000
Saturday - 5,50,00,000
TOTAL - 16,75,00,000

The plus for the film is no major competition until the release of HAPPY NEW YEAR. So if it holds well on Tuesday it could get a decent lifetime total.

The film has fared very well at multiplexes of big cities till date but the collections at single screens of B and C centres especially in Hindi belt are below the mark
------------------------------
HAIDER showed a good trend on day two as it grossed around 6 crore nett. The collections were up despite the first day being a big national holiday. The film showed growth of around 15% which was similar to the drop of BANG BANG on its second day. The approx business of the Hindi version of HAIDER till date is as follows.
Thursday - 5,25,00,000
Friday - 6,00,00,000
TOTAL - 11,25,00,000

If this trend continues or collections hold at these levels over the five day weekend it can come out with a 30 crore nett figure which will be pretty good but then the real test will be Tuesday.
