KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN saw another drop in business as it collected just 50 lakhs nett on its third Friday which takes the business of the film to just 101 crore nett. The film will now just do business of around 105 crore nett which is not much better than 83.

Basically if this film had been a huge budget film, it would have been a total disaster but the production budget is not that high. The budget only goes towards 200 crore because a value has to be put for Salman Khan's remuneration.

The release of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3 and THE KERALA STORY has also meant no extended run like TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR and BHOLAA though the former probably got the run due to some appreciation in centres dominated by high end multiplexes.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN had a low second week with business of 15 crore nett apprx. This takes the film to the 100 crore nett mark in two weeks but there will not be much more numbers coming in. Its unlikely that the film will be able to add 10 crore nett more.

The film got a little boost on Monday due to Labour Day/Maharashtra day but collections were back down the next day. The performance of the film is poor all over as it looks all circuits except the likes of Bihar and Odisha will stay below TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR. The all India number being lower is understandable but likes of CP, CI and Rajasthan should have gone higher especially on EID.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN dropped on its second Tuesday after the holiday benefit on Monday. The film collected around 1.25 crore nett on its second Tuesday which takes the film to 98.50 crore nett. The collections have come down to a low level now and there are a couple of big Hollywood releases over the next few weeks which makes it difficult for KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN to run for long on such low occupancy.

The second week should see the film hitting the 100 crore nett mark but that was minimum requirement in the first week if the film was to have any chance of crossing the 150 crore nett mark. This is the mark all these films costing in. Films like KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN, BHOLAA and TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR needed to collect around the 200 crore mark but all failed. The latter was the closest with a 128 crore nett close. KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN may not even get 110 crore nett while BHOLAA closed around 80 crore nett.

The wait is now for JAWAN and Shah Rukh Khan to save the day. Post JAWAN, there is a better line up; so, the second half of 2023 should witness better box office results.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN got the benefit of labour day in some states and it was Maharashtra Day in Maharashtra which led to good collections in this state (good as is in they were around the level of Saturday, not in terms of the overall picture).

The film collected around 2.25 crore nett on Monday which is more than Friday mainly thanks to Maharashtra. This takes the second week to 11.75 crore nett and it should be going to around 15-16 crore nett in week two. The overall total of the film is 97 crore nett.

There will be a drop in collections on Tuesday as the film comes back down to its more normal level for the weekdays of the second week.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN managed some good growth on Sunday of around 40% but this is probably because on Saturday, the growth was not like it should. The collections on Sunday were 4.25 crore nett taking the film to 95 crore nett. Despite being in cinemas for ten days, it is still short of the 100 crore nett mark and even in 14 days, it may not reach that mark.

The film will not reach the 120-125 crore nett range as collections are not up to the mark in week two. The way it is going, the film will not reach the BHOLAA numbers of week two at around 16 crore nett, let alone the 24.50 crore nett mark of TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR. The big releases have to be going over 25 crore nett in week two and its likely all the HITS post pandemic have managed to do this.

Despite the content not working the hope was that it could reach the AVERAGE mark and do business similar to KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN. But its looking to fall 15 crore nett short due to limited collections after the first week.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN continued to struggle in its second week with the Saturday growth not being as it should be on its second Saturday. The film has grown around 40% on its second Saturday when it should really be in the 75-100% range.

The overall business is a little over 90 crore nett after nine days but if you take out Eid, then this film would not have reached 100 crore nett lifetime.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN dropped on its second Friday with collections in the 2.25 crore nett range. The film had to be around 3 crore nett if it was to get to the 125 crore nett mark which now looks impossible for the film.

The eight day business of the film is now 88 crore nett and basically, its just been a story of the film doing well over the Eid period and then coming down fast. It will get over the 100 crore nett mark but even that will take time. The collections have also come down in Overseas post Eid and worldwide, it will stay below the 200 crore mark.

The film has under performed for a Salman Khan film but there was always a possibility with the look and feel of the film. The next few films of the superstar look better products with TIGER 3 on Diwali and then a film with Rajshri Productions followed by the YRF film with Shah Rukh Khan. No doubt the numbers will be far higher as they will be better products and if the audience takes to the content as well, then the films can go anywhere. Today star power alone has limitations with a reluctant audience and its not just this film but so many that are proving this.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN dropped again on Thursday as it collected in the 3.25-3.50 crore nett range. The drop was 20% on Thursday which is better than the last few days but still higher than normal. The Eid factor is now totally out of the film as single screens across UP have gone to normal levels. So, there is no Eid boost for the film anymore.

The first week collections he collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN are almost 86 crore nett which is better than most releases but Eid has bumped up the collections by around 16-18 crore nett.

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN took a hit on Tuesday as Eid period ended in most states and it collected 6.25 crore nett. These collections come in as the film continues to get Eid benefit in many cities of UP and Bihar. The collections in major A centres of UP like Agra and Gorakhpur are still similar day one. So, it means these are still yet to come off and that there are some drops to come.

The film is struggling in North (outside UP) but this always looked the case from the Sunday collections and there was also the South Indian look and feel of the film. There is no South bandwagon and this pan India thing is a joke. So, it is best for makers from the Hindi film industry to keep to a more traditional Hindi format. Also the films which will work across India from the South will be the ones which create a world and don't have that typical South Indian feel to them.

The results of the typical Telugu looking ones can be seen over the last 18 months. This is not to say that KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN looks like a typical Telugu film as there is music and Salman Khan but some of the audience will see it as a film with South feel.

The five day collections of the film are 78 crore nett and with UP and Bihar are still high; there will be drops to come as they hit normal levels. It will be about where the collections land on the second Friday and second weekend and they will determine where the film can go.

The collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN over the first five days are as follows

Friday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 24,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 24,50,00,000 apprx

Monday - 9,50,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

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

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN took another 30% hit as collections came down to 4.25 crore nett and the Eid period came to and end. Some single screens in Muslim centres in UP were still out performing but its a minimal boost to collections. The collections of the film should now see more normal type of falls and the Friday number is crucial if the film is to do some decent business in May which has very few releases.

The film at the moment is faring on very similar lines to the Holi release TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR and the costs are also pretty similar. The budget is of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN is less but there has to be a value for the remuneration of Salman Khan and digital rights are normally a fair representation of that and this takes the cost of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN to around 200 crore.

The collections of six days are 82.25 crore nett and the week is probably going to end up at around 86 crore nett or close. This means the film can be AVERAGE at best and that is if it manages to collect over the next 2-3 weeks. The second Friday must remain in and around the 3 crore nett mark if the film is to hit the AVERAGE mark.

It is a disappointing that a Salman Khan starrer has not really done well over Eid but the product was never looking strong. So, on that side you take this 100 crore nett plus total and the expected 80 crore worldwide share in the business scenario today. It could have been much worse as has been with many films over the last 18 months.

The collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN over the first six days are as follows

Friday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 24,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 24,50,00,000 apprx

Monday - 9,50,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

Wednesday - 4,25,00,000 apprx

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN had a good hold on Monday as Eid continued to boost collections. The single screens were excellent and even multiplexes held up very well. There were strong holds even in cinemas of metros like Mumbai and Kolkata.

The drops came in East Punjab and in parts of the NCR area which do not fall into UP. Here, the drops were over 50% but these were anyway likely to be the weakest pockets if everything was equal. The Monday collections of the film are in the 9.50 crore nett range which takes the overall total to 72 crore nett apprx.

The drop from Friday is only 30% which if taken on face value is a very strong hold especially for a mass films like this. However, it is due to Eid and was never about Monday but where the film is towards the end of the week. There will be drops over the next few days as the Eid areas come back down to normal levels. Monday saw good collections in both Mumbai and Delhi/UP circuits.

Maharashtra has done very well over the Eid period which is the need of the day because barring a SOORYAVANSHI or DRISHYAM 2, it has underperformed for every Hindi film.

The collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN over the first four days are as follows

Friday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 24,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 24,50,00,000 apprx

Monday - 9,50,00,000 apprx

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN did well in its first weekend boosted by Eid on Saturday and Sunday after an average start. The collections were very good on Saturday and Sunday especially single screens which has meant a 60 crore nett plus three day weekend for the film.

The jump was huge on Saturday due to the national holiday for Eid and Sunday was Bassi Eid. So, the collections in some places actually improved from Saturday. There was a noticeable drop in East Punjab on Sunday which is a non Eid area which is a concern for collections as Eid wares off.

The Eid factor continues on Monday in some parts and normally collections are healthy in most of the Hindi belts especially the single screens but its a different story in the bigger cities as Eid is no longer a factor here. 

The film has done well to get to 62 crore nett but there is a long way to go and its really about where the collections land once the Eid factor is not in play. The single screens that have done exceptionally well on Saturday and Sunday and will remain strong on Monday and even on Tuesday at places but after that it becomes a normal playing field.

The collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN over the first three days are as follows

Friday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 24,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 24,50,00,000 apprx

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

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN has collected 107 crore apprx worldwide over its first weekend with reasonable collections everywhere. The out performance in overseas is Gulf region which will be around $1.75 million while a near $1 million total in US/Canada is not bad for this type of film.

In Gulf, it will easily become the second best performer post pandemic after PATHAAN, thanks to Eid. The contribution from Gulf, North America, United Kingdom and Australia is around $3.25 million.

A film like SOORYAVANSHI, which was a bigger film, collected 117 crore in its opening weekend while the last Salman Khan release which was DABANGG 3 before the pandemic did 115 crore. There are four films with a worldwide 100 crore weekend and those are SOORYAVANSHI, BRAHMASTRA, PATHAAN and now KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN. This mark was a given before the pandemic especially for holiday releases but that is not the case any more.

The worldwide collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN (Hindi)  are as follows.

India - 75.25 crore (62.25 crore nett)

Overseas - 31.50 crore ($3.75 million)

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN did very well on its second day collecting almost 24 crore nett and taking its two day collections to 37.50 crore nett. The growth on day two is almost 75% as Eid kicked in and jumps were everywhere with even metro centers doing very well.

The performance on day one was lackluster partly due to it being the last day of Eid which meant it was covering the lost ground on day one. This leaves the film in a decent position and it should score well again on Sunday. The Sunday benefit is that where Eid is normally a one day affair, it will still hold up there due to it being a Sunday. If it was weekday, these non Eid areas would have seen the big post Eid drops.

The film jumped very well in Mumbai which was crucial as day one was not good in the circuit. The collections in the circuit are looking around 7 crore nett which is a good number especially considering Hindi films are generally struggling in Maharashtra. The single screens in the state have been awful since the pandemic and this film has given some respite, at least over the Eid period.

The collections of KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN over the first two days are as follows

Friday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 23,75,00,000 apprx

KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN did reasonable business on day one with collections of 13.75-14 crore nett though a Salman Khan starrer should be doing much more as the potential for a huge star now is actually more than before pandemic. The film was looking like a regular film and today these will get regular collections even with the biggest of stars. The best performance for the film in in UP, Bihar, Rajasthan and Nizam/Andhra.

These pockets have seen the best collections outside PATHAAN, BRAHMASTRA and SOORYAVANSHI post pandemic despite being affected by the last day of Ramazan at many centres and these better collections are mainly down to the Salman Khan factor. There is under performance in metros and circuits like East Punjab, West Bengal and Mysore. Take out Nizam/Andhra and its a very dull performance down South. There were expectations in the industry but if the film had got to 15 crore nett, it actually would have been a result considering a similar looking DABANGG 2 had done 22 crore pre pandemic being a franchise and released on a normal day without the Ramazan factor.

The collections will improve over the Eid period but it depends to what level they can go to. The multiplex performance has to improve for the film because on day one, its looking very mass and a single screen type of film. Eid does see a solid performance in most circuits for a few days which will happen with this film also. But the jump in collections depends on how the content is perceived by the audience as its not like before where you had a ready audience over the holidays. Now its a reluctant audience and the film has to bring people in. 

There is an open field with no major releases till FAST X in mid May. So. if the film can find some acceptance, it can run well tell then. It wont meet the expectations from a Salman Khan starrer but as for that to happen today, the film has to be bigger to match the star status.
