BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) continues to do steady business on the weekdays of its second week as it collects 3 crore nett on its second Wednesday. The drops are a little more than normal on the weekdays of the second week but that is mainly due to cinema day on Friday when some of the weekday audience will be looking to take benefit of cheaper ticket rates.

The collections of the film are now 190.50 crore nett and the second week will finish at around 50 crore nett plus. The film then will score a very good second Friday due to cinema day and it remains to be seen how it goes after that.

BRAHMASTRA is doing well across all circuits though its mainly thanks to the bigger centres with Mumbai leading the way as it does around one third of the Hindi version business. Nizam/Andhra has been the stand out circuit but that is due to the Telugu version.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

First Week - 1,42,91,00,000

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 14,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 14,75,00,000 apprx

Monday - 4,00,00,000 apprx

Wednesday - 3,00,00,000 apprx

Second Week - 47,50,00,000 apprx (6 days)

The dubbed version of the film will cross the 22 crore nett mark in two weeks. The collections of all formats will be around 215 crore nett after two weeks.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA in dubbed format are as follows.

Week One - 18,82,00,000

Second Week - 3,10,00,000 apprx (6 days)

-----------------------------

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) scored a very good second week of around 50 crore nett. The collections could have been higher but the cheap tickets on cinema day may have cost it around 1 crore nett as some of the weekday audience waited till Friday to watch the film. Still this 1 crore nett will be more than easily covered by the collections on Friday.

BRAHMASTRA is the 19th film in Hindi to cross the 50 crore nett barrier in week two. This has taken the total of the film to 193 crore nett in two weeks and it will cross 200 crore nett on its third Friday. The film has dropped 65% in week two which is also pretty good.

The film is sure to remain in cinemas for sometime yet due to the lack of releases and it remains to be seen what sort of boost the film gets from cinema day on Friday. The Hindi version looked on course for the 225 crore nett plus mark but now it could go higher as long as cinema day does not affect the longer run of the film.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

The dubbed versions have picked up 22 crore nett giving the film a total of 215 crore nett on all formats.

BRAHMASTRA continues its strong run overseas in its second weekend collecting around $2 million plus in its second weekend which has taken its overall total to $12 million apprx. This is easily the highest figure a Hindi film as it beat the $9 million of KGF - CHAPTER 2 (Hindi). There is a little Telugu business in the overseas total for BRAHMASTRA mainly in USA but that will account for just 4-5% of the overall total. So even if we take $11.50 million its still far ahead of KGF - CHAPTER 2.

The numbers are less in Gulf but it seems a market specific thing there at the moment as maybe it could have done $500k more but even then it would be a $2.5 million finish apprx and that is still well below what the big budget HIT films were doing pre pandemic. The numbers in USA/Canada, UK and Australia are much closer if not similar to what the film would have done before the pandemic.

The United Kingdom hold has been very good after the first weekend and it heads for a comfortable £1 million plus finish and the last film to do that was also coincidently a Ranbir Kapoor film, SANJU. The £1 million mark in UK was a BLOCKBUSTER total for the circuit pre pandemic as loyalty cards have meant a falling market. The film is likely to end up with around $14-15 million in overseas.

The collections from overseas after the second weekend and are as follows.

United Kingdom - £885,000 ($1,040,000)

US/Canada - $6,800,000

Gulf - $1,750,000

Australia - A$1,465,000 ($980,000)

Rest Of The World - $1,500,000 apprx

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) did well again on its second Monday as it collected in the 4-4.25 crore nett range which is a drop of around 50% from the Friday but that is because ticket rates have come down to base levels from Monday onward so the bigger multiplexes fell more than normal on the second Monday. These are the places which had also seen a good jump on Friday. The places where there was no growth on Friday have held on better. 

This takes the film to 41 crore nett in the second week after four days and it will be a comfortable 50 crore nett plus second week. The Hindi version now stands at 184 crore nett and it should add another 10 crore nett over the next three days for a total of 194 crore nett after two weeks.

There is also no major competition this week but there is national cinema day on Friday where most of the multiplex chains be it national or non national will price tickets at INR 75 only. So, its hard to to tell where the film will land up on this day.

At present the film is looking to finish at 220-230 crore nett in Hindi which is a great result for a film which does not have support at B and C centres and that too post pandemic when it has been a huge task to succeed without the support of these as bigger cities have been hit by the streaming habit. All the other films to have got around 200 crore nett or above did well at least in the B centres.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 14,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 14,75,00,000 apprx

Monday - 4,00,00,000 apprx

The Telugu version held well on Monday and the dubbed languages should easily cross 22 crore nett by the end of the week

Monday - 30,00,000 apprx

-----------------------

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) collected a decent 3.50 crore nett on its second Tuesday taking its overall to 187.50 crore nett but it may feel the heat over the next couple of days due to the cheap rates on Friday which can lessen the business on the other days.

The business for cinema day on Friday has already reached 2.50 crore nett plus and it is sure to do a very good number but the issue is what happens after this huge day as it is likely to consume much of the weekend footfalls. One thing is there though the film is sure to cross the 200 crore nett mark in Hindi on National Cinema Day.

The second week now should close around 50-51 crore nett as its likely the collections will fall under the 3 crore nett mark before the week is out and there will be some losses due to cinema day which will be covered on the Friday.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) had a very good second weekend of 37 crore nett which has taken the film to a running total of 180 crore nett. The second weekend was crucial for the film due to the lower business over weekdays but rock steady collections on the second Friday set it up for a strong weekend. The drop in Hindi is 64% from the first weekend which is very good for a film which opened so well. 

The growth on Sunday was limited but that was sort of expected as it had seen crazy growth on Saturday and it has a huge ratio of business coming from centers which do not tend to grow on Sunday. The film could see drops over the weekdays as ticket pricing will be coming back to base level at the multiplexes and its likely that ticket pricing alone will be 25-30% lower than the weekend.

The film is now a HIT and the fifth one post the pandemic after SOORYAVANSHI, GANGUBAI KATHIAWADI, THE KASHMIR FILES and BHOOL BHULAIYAA 2. The film will put up post pandemic highs in all circuits except Mumbai and CP Berar for an original Hindi film.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 14,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 14,75,00,000 apprx

BRAHMASTRA has added 21 crore nett in dubbed languages which takes it all formats total to over 200 crore nett. There was a drop here in the second weekend but overall its done well in Telugu.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA in dubbed format are as follows.

Week One - 18,82,00,000

Sunday - 1,00,00,000 apprx

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) had extraordinary growth on Saturday driven by Mumbai circuit which went up a crazy 85% on Saturday. The South also saw huge growth as the Hindi versions in Nizam/Andhra and Mysore as they grew around 75%. A mass circuit like CP Berar went up 70% which is pretty crazy for a single screen dominated circuit. The film collected 14 crore nett apprx on its second Saturday in Hindi.

Overall there was 70% growth for the Hindi version which is huge for a big film. Actually even many smaller releases have not been able to show this sort of growth post the pandemic on the second Saturday or in fact any Saturday, be it first, second or third. The film has come into its own in the second weekend and it may be the story of strong weekends and average weekdays due to the ratio of business coming from the bigger centres and also 3D version. This will probably be known by the results on Monday. 

The collections now stand at around 168 crore nett for the Hindi version and there is Sunday to come which would add well though the growth on Sunday could be less than normal as Saturday as grown so much. Even on a worse case scenario it is looking at a 37 crore nett second weekend which is a very good number though hopefully it should be more.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

First Week - 1,46,25,00,000 apprx

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 14,00,00,000 apprx

BRAHMASTRA also become the first film to cross 20 crore nett in languages driven by decent numbers in Telugu which alone will comfortably cross 20 crore nett in two weeks.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA in dubbed format are as follows.

BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) did very well on its second Friday grossing around 8.25 crore nett which was more than the Thursday number. There was actually some some solid growth in the bigger centres dominated by multiplexes but the same was not replicated in smaller centres and single screens. The limited competition has helped but the content has to be working at some point for a film not to see a drop at the start of the second week especially when losing cinemas.

There has been a conjecture in the industry whether the film has been accepted but that was pretty clear on the growth on the first Saturday. Its just the acceptance is not across the board but probably limited to the top twenty cities. For a big film to be a BLOCKBUSTER, it needs acceptance all over but here its more about the bigger cities and multiplexes in general and these look like driving the film to  HIT status.

The business today (Saturday) should confirm the HIT status of the film as there will be solid growth as now the business is mainly dominated by multiplexes which should show strong growth on Saturday and generally run strong over weekends. The weaker collecting cinemas are not there now in the second week which bought the growth down last Saturday.

Despite not finding acceptance all over the circuit figures are good everywhere due to contribution from the bigger cities. Even a Bihar has comfortably crossed the 4 crore nett mark in week one on the strength of the 4-5 main cities and this is a good first week number in Bihar especially for a film which has not been taken to by the single screen audience. Bihar is a circuit dominated by single screens.

The collections of the film are now 154 crore nett plus in Hindi. The film also collected around 40-50 lakhs nett in dubbed languages which takes that version to 19 crore nett apprx and a total of 173 crore nett in all formats. The contribution from languages is mainly from Telugu which stands over 15 crore nett now.

The collections of BRAHMASTRA (Hindi) are as follows.

First Week - 1,46,25,00,000 apprx

Friday - 8,25,00,000 apprx
