DO AUR DO PYAAR had a poor weekend of 2 crore nett apprx and more than the numbers ,it was the trend which disappointed as you would expect the film to double up on Saturday with such a low Friday. Being a total urban film, the growth was not good enough and then Sunday was pretty much flat.
Still the film collected better than its competition LOVE SEX AUR DHOKHA 2 which collected around the 50 lakh nett range and this is sequel to a film which got some eyeballs. However, it appealed to a niche crowd. When a film is not able to break out post theatrical, it is tough for the second part to find an audience. This has been seen time and time again with likes of ROCK ON and KAHAANI and many others.
There is going to be huge struggle for exhibitors across the country in the election period as collections are likely only in states where there will be solid regional releases. Most of the country will see many cinemas closing shop for most of May.
The weekend collections of DO AUR DO PYAAR are as follows.
Friday - 50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Do Aur Do Pyaar collects 55 lakhs on Day 1; Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2 collects 15 lakhs

DO AUR DO PYAAR collected around 50-55 lakhs on the opening day which is probably par for the course for a film of this zone which is an urban drama with limited music, comedy or other entertainment factors. The comparable film for this is probably LAAPATAA LADIES but that probably had some female following in the high ends to enable to get a run for a few weeks on low collections.
The collections on day one here are 25-30% lower than LAAPATAA LADIES which itself hardly broke out and just ran at low levels from its 75 lakh day start. It means that this film will not do the same numbers as LAAPATAA LADIES.
DO AUR DO PYAAR has managed to easily beat its main competitor LOVE SEX AUR DHOKHA 2 which collected hardly 15 lakhs nett. This is a sequel to LOVE SEX AUR DHOKHA which released in 2010 and had done pretty well opening at 1.15 crore nett and going on to do around 8.50 crore nett.
But today, things have changed and this sort of cinema has no takers whatsoever. The film seens to have this transgender, gay or lesbian theme in the film and to put this into words, a minimal percentage of the population belongs to this category. The regular audience is not interested in this sort of stuff but it still remains prevalent in the film industry.
