COMMANDO 3 had a decent first week of 29 crore nett and did decent business at the box office for 5 days but then the falls came. The film is still easily the best of the franchise and there will be good results on digital and satellite as the film recovered most of its cost from there. The previous two films of the franchise were strong post release which meant this one got the revenue from satellite and digital.

The drops on Wednesday and Thursday and two big films releasing today means the theatrical position of the film is not too strong as there will probably be a big drop on its second Friday. But the business is good enough for another film in the franchise especially if satellite and digital convert again.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 7,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,25,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 3,15,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 2,50,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 29,15,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI collected 7 crore nett in its first week and could not really hold on the weekdays even with its target audience of high end multiplexes at metros. The film will hardly add much from here and on a best case scenario can crawl to 10 crore nett.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 70,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 60,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 60,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 7,00,00,000 apprx

COMMANDO 3 saw its first drop in business on Wednesday and there was always a chance of this happening as many films this year have seen the fall come on Wednesday even after a steady Monday. The drop means that it rules out the chance than COMMANDO 3 can emerge a HIT but still should be a success as long as the second week does not crash out.

The first week is looking at a total of 28.50-28.75 crore nett and then it will be down to the second Friday which will tell where this film is going. There will be a huge reduction in screen space due to the release of two major films in the for of PANIPAT and PATI PATNI AUR WOH.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 7,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,25,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 3,15,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 2,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 26,15,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI is is a poor fare and despite this foreign film having an Indian setting, it does not have takers in India.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 70,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 60,00,000 apprx

COMMANDO 3 maintained its steady run on Tuesday with collections in the 3-3.25 crore nett range which is not much less than Monday. The film has a total of 24.50 crore nett now and is looking at a 29 crore nett first week.

A good hold on Wednesday could help the cause of the film as this day has proved to be one where many films this year have shown a major drop despite good holds on Monday and Tuesday. If COMMANDO 3 can maintain around the 3 crore nett levels on Wednesday, it could surprise in week two also though it will be tough to hold at the these levels.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 7,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,25,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 3,15,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 24,65,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI is heading for a first week of 7 crore nett and has not done well.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 5,90,00,000 apprx

COMMANDO 3 has held up well on Monday with collections in the 3-3.25 crore nett range which is a 30% plus drop and good trending for this film. The four day collections are 21.50 crore nett apprx which practically makes it the top film of this franchise in just four days.

This film is heading for a 29 crore nett first week and then it will be about how many screens it can maintain in week two and that will be a struggle be it at multiplexes or single screens. On this trend the film should easily go above the 40 crore nett mark but because of a likely drop of screens in week two it may struggle to far as 40 crore nett.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 7,75,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 21,50,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI collected 75 lakhs nett on Monday and although the drop is just 25% it had to be more closer to its day one number and actually probably higher. The Monday collection however is low. The film has collected 5.25 crore nett so far and will finish the week with around 7.25 crore nett.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 5,25,00,000 apprx

COMMANDO 3 had a fair weekend of 18.25 crore nett and it recorded good numbers on Sunday. The earlier films of this franchise have had some audience in single screens and smaller multiplexes but the difference here is that this one has found a larger audience at multiplexes across the country. The numbers are not good or anything at the city multiplexes but are far better than previous films.

This will mean that this film will cover the previous films in a matter of 4 days or at the very most 5 days. The film was released on 2200 cinemas going to 2550 screens which shows a limited multiplex release as few plexes have more than one screen. Monday will be the test for the film to see if it can hold and if it can can it add collections in week two when there will be two major releases.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 7,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 18,25,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI grossed 4.75 crore nett over its first weekend with collections mainly coming from the metros. The film probably has to collect more than Friday on Monday or at least be close to get a decent run of 2-3 weeks. A better number on Sunday would have helped its cause.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 4,75,00,000 apprx

COMMANDO 3 did pretty well on Saturday as it collected 5.50-5.75 crore nett taking its two day total to 10.50 crore nett apprx. It is a solid Saturday growth for this type of film and the mass circuits have not dropped much which is a plus. The likes of Bihar and CP Berar which are single screen dominated have the same collections as day one.

The film can follow this Saturday growth with a good jump on Sunday and if this happens then the film may turn out be the first success for the franchise in terms of theatrical business. COMMANDO and COMMANDO 2 have done very well on television but none of the films have even reached the 25 crore nett mark in terms of box office collection but this film has a good chance to set a new benchmark for the franchise.

The collections of COMMANDO 3 till date are as follows.
Friday - 4,75,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 5,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 10,50,00,000 apprx

HOTEL MUMBAI showed growth of around 75% but considering a poor Friday and a big release in the metro multiplexes for this type of film it should really have been doubling up or maybe even more.

The collections of HOTEL MUMBAI are as follows.
Friday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 1,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,75,00,000 apprx
