KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON had a good first week of 38.75 crore nett and also held steady on the weekdays. The film had a drop on Tuesday but stabilized on the next two days. Basically the film has covered its production and marketing costs with just the first week share from its India theatrical business.

The film was excellent in East Punjab and good in Delhi/UP, Rajasthan, CI, Bihar and Gujarat. Maharashtra and CP Berar did average business while the rest were on the lower side. the first week numbers are similar to a film like DRISHYAM but has less than one third of the cost of that film.

The film is a HIT and the second week will tell if it can go further. the way the film trended on the weekdays it looked a 60 crore nett grosser but the release of SINGH IS BLIING will stop it in its tracks and will probably have to settle for a 50 crore nett plus finish. The holiday will on its second Friday will help but the advantage will be in lakhs as film has 2-3 shows on average at multiplexes.
-----------------------
KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON dropped in most of India apart from North. The collections were decent in North India with it contributing around 50% of the all India business. The collections were around 1.50 crore nett on the eighth day.

The drop is 80% from the first day and the growth if any will be minimal over the weekend. The film was hugely affected by the release of Singh Is Bling especially as SINGH IS BLIING has done well in the same markets as KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON. The business of KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON is around 40 crore nett after eight days.

Despite the drop in business the film has done very well and should finish at around the 48-50 crore nett mark.

KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON had its first noticeable drop on Tuesday as collections dropped around 17% from the previous day. The first five days business of KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON are as follows.
Friday - 8,00,00,000
Saturday - 7,50,00,000
Sunday - 8,75,00,000
Monday - 4,50,00,000
Tuesday - 3,75,00,000
TOTAL - 32,50,00,000

The first week business will be around 38.5-39 crore nett and then it has to be seen how much does the release of SINGH IS BLIING affect its collections.

KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON has a very good weekend with business of around 24.25 crore nett. The first day opened strong with 8 crore nett but it was day which made the film a sure shot hit as it grossed 7.50 crore nett which was fantastic coming off an holiday. The business on Sunday was a solid 8.75 crore nett.

The film is excellent in East Punjab with business of 3.80 crore nett. Other territories which have done very good business are Delhi / UP with 6 crore nett, Rajasthan with 1.66 crore nett, CI with 1.15 crore nett and Gujarat/Saurashtra with 3 crore nett. The collections in Nizam/Andhra, West Bengal and Mysore were weak. All three were below 1 crore nett for the weekend.

The film has already done the job as its a 20 crore film and has already notched up a 12.75-13 crore distributor share in just three days but its still important to hold on Monday so that goes on to become a big hit. If collections can show a 50% approx drop from Friday it would be a strong trend. Normally you want to be 40% down but here it was a holiday on Friday so close to 50% will do. The film has also done well Overseas especially Gulf where opening weekend may get into top five of the year.
--------------------------
KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON has held up very well on Monday with business of around 4.50 crore nett. The drop from day one is 45% which is excellent considering day one was a holiday and so in real terms the drop is much less. The best hold is in the North especially East Punjab and Delhi NCR.

The total business of the film so far is 28.75 crore nett and the first week should go to around 40 crore nett which is a huge total for the film. The way North is going it won't be a surprise if the film crosses the lifetime business of bigger films like BABY and PIKU.

The overall lifetime business of the film is dependent on how the second Friday and Saturday go as SINGH IS BLIING will release on Friday and so collections will drop but it's a big holiday which will cushion that drop a little. Saturday will be back to normal..

KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON had a very strong second day. The business of the film dropped 15% in places like Rajasthan, CI and Bihar but circuits like Delhi/UP and East Punjab managed to up a little despite day one being a holiday. The first two days business of KIS KISKO PYAAR KAROON are as follows.
Friday - 8,00,00,000
Saturday - 7,50,00,000

CALENDAR GIRLS is a poor fare as collections dropped 20% on day two. The first two day collections are as follows.
Friday - 1,50,00,000
Saturday - 1,20,00,000
