The initial could have been a bit better but to have a 35 crore nett plus figure from the initial it got is very good. The figures are slightly lower than HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY due to single screens where Akshay Kumar has that initial draw. In Mysore the film has collected more than HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY.
There will not be much of a problem covering costs as comedies get a good satellite rate and the film is shot in UK. Hence, there is the rebate of shooting there which will amount to a sizeable amount as the film has production budget of 50 crore plus. Now it will be Monday and Tuesday that will decide where the final theatrical business will end up.
-------------------------
The film could beat JAI HO at the end of the third week but if it does not it is sure to beat in in the fourth weekend. The film has seen a 70% drop in the third weekend compared to 53% in the second weekend due to the release of HUMSHAKALS.
It will be a similar drop in the third week as another major film EK VILLAIN releases which means a 112 crore nett lifetime finish. The final business will be in the same range as Akshay Kumar's HOUSEFULL 2.

Priya Gupta & Meena Iyer (BOMBAY TIMES; June 23, 2014)
AR Murugadoss has done it twice. Akshay Kumar has done it thrice over. Both have entered the 100-cr club with their latest offering Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty.
The audience identified with the film's strong patriotic message on how to tackle terrorist sleeper cells. The Akshay-Murugadoss combination has worked, just like the South Indian director's previous combination with Aamir Khan worked in Ghajini (2008).
As for Akshay, well he has had Rs 100-cr successes in Rowdy Rathore, Housefull 2 and now, Holiday.

HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY has grossed 87 crore nett in ten days as the second weekend has added around 19 crore nett. The second week could hit 30 crore nett and take the film near the 100 crore nett mark.
The film is sure to be the highest grossing film of the year. Though there is a heavy flow of releases from Friday onwards, it should manage to do around 10-15 crore nett to go a bit over the 110 crore nett mark.
---------------------------
FUGLY, meanwhile, could not make a mark at the box office as it collected 7.25 crore nett in its first weekend. The film did average business in the North but fared badly in the rest of the circuits especially Gujarat, Maharashtra, West Bengal and Nizam. The film could also not grow much on Saturday and Sunday.
The film has low costs and so even if it managed around 10 crore nett over the weekend it would have been a decent result of the film. Also there has been a trend over the last few years that the smaller films tend to do well in the Feb-May period while very few have have done well in the June-Dec period.
The other releases of the week like 18.11 A CODE OF SECRECY, CHAL BHAAG, MACHHLI JAL KI RANI HAI, NARI TERI SHAKTI ANOKHI and UNFORGETTABLE were all very dull with only MACHHLI JAL KI RANI HAI having some collections due to the horror factor.
Holiday might cross 100 cr in 2nd week; Fugly poor on Day 2

HOLIDAY - A SOLDIER IS NEVER OFF DUTY continues to dominate the box
office as it grossed around 6.25-6.50 crore on Saturday to take its
second weekend total to 10.50 crore nett. If the film follows the trend
of last week it may hit 20 crore nett in its second weekend which will
give it a shot at 100 crore nett it two weeks.
On the other hand, FUGLY is poor as it could not grow on Sunday with collections coming in the 2.25 crore nett range taking its business to 4.50 crore nett in two days. Saturday growth is a must for these types and that too big growth. As FUGLY showed no growth its likely the film will not go anywhere as far as its box office is concerned.
