102 NOT OUT had huge growth on its second Saturday of around 75% as it grossed 3 crore nett. The film stands at around 32 crore nett after nine days but that is the business which RAAZI will get in three days and both films have similar costs. This is because 102 NOT OUT has mainly found appreciation in Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore while for RAAZI its the top twenty collecting cities.

The business of 102 NOT OUT till date is as follows.
Week One - 27,00,00,000
Friday - 1,75,00,000
Saturday - 3,00,00,000
TOTAL - 31,75,00,000

102 NOT OUT had a reasonable hold on its second Friday as it collected 1.75 crore nett apprx. The drop in under 50% from the first day. The film is going on the lines of HICHKI as far as the business of the film is concerned and lifetime looks set to be similar to that film if it continues with this trend.

Week One - 27,00,00,000
Friday - 1,75,00,000

AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR is heading towards that 225 crore nett mark as it picked up another 2-2.25 crore nett apprx on its third Friday. The drop from last week is 70% which is a lesser drop than the second Friday.

The collections of AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR till date is as follows
Week One - 1,56,52,00,000
Week Two - 46,75,00,000 apprx
Friday - 2,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,05,27,00,000 apprx

102 NOT OUT has had a decent first week of 27 crore nett as it has held up well over the weekdays. The weekend collections were around 16 crore nett and hence, an 11 crore addition over the weekdays is pretty good. The film has collected very similar to HICHKI though 102 NOT OUT has higher costs.

HICHKI grossed 26 crore nett in week one and this has edged past that figure. The film is also driven by the same circuits as HICHKI like Mumbai, Mysore and West Bengal. 102 NOT OUT should emerge a successful film or maybe even a HIT depending on how well it can hold up over the next week or two.

The first four day business of 102 NOT OUT is as follows.
Friday - 3,39,00,000
Saturday - 5,25,00,000 apprx

OMERTA is a disaster with a very poor first week of 3.25 crore nett. The collections are even lower than the likes of NANU KI JAANU and KAALAKAANDI. The first week business of OMERTA is as follows
Friday - 50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 30,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 25,00,000 apprx
Wednesday - 25,00,000 apprx
Thursday - 20,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 3,25,00,000 apprx

102 NOT OUT had rock steady collections on Tuesday as it collected similar to Monday with 3 crore nett apprx. It has reached a total of 22 crore nett in five days and the week looks like going to 27.50 crore nett which would mean a better first week than HICHKI and OCTOBER.

The film is being driven by Mumbai circuit which has seen good numbers, even Gujarat is posting decent numbers post Sunday. The film is a success and now the next week or two will tell if it can emerge a HIT film. It will face competition from RAAZI this week which has a similar target audience but its not a huge film so there is easily enough screen space for both films to exist together.

The first four day business of 102 Not Out is as follows
Friday - 3,39,00,000
Saturday - 5,25,00,000
Sunday - 7,50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,00,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 3,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 22,14,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 30,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,80,00,000 apprx

102 NOT OUT did well on Sunday as it collected 7.25-7.50 crore nett apprx as the family audience came out in the bigger cities. The growth was excellent on Sunday with 40% apprx which does not happen often on Sunday but as this film probably holds more appeal for the older audience which is likely to turn out on the Sunday.

The weekend business of 16 crore nett apprx is still low though it has chances to make up ground over the weekdays. The business over the first three days is a bit higher than HICHKI but a little lower than OCTOBER. The plus for the film is the trend on Sunday which may mean there is some appreciation with the family audiences in big cities which could drive the business post the weekend.

The first weekend business of 102 NOT OUT is as follows.
Friday - 3,39,00,000
Saturday - 5,25,00,000
Sunday - 7,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 16,14,00,000 apprx

OMERTA did poor business in its first weekend of 2.25 crore nett though the growth on Sunday is a little surprising as these types dont really put on Sunday. It does not really make a difference to the final result of the film. The first weekend business of OMERTA is as follows,
Friday - 50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,25,00,000 apprx
-----------------------------------
102 NOT OUT has held on strongly on Monday with collections of 3 crore nett apprx which is just a 15% drop from Monday. The film did well on Sunday when the family audience came and has followed through well on Monday. The film has found some appreciation with the family audience in metros.

The collections are still low of the film at 19 crore nett but it should start making up some ground from here on. The first week should go to around 27 crore nett which is a respectable total. The film is doing better than HICHKI from Sunday onward but also has higher costs than that film.

The first four day business of 102 NOT OUT is as follows.
Friday - 3,39,00,000
Saturday - 5,25,00,000
Sunday - 7,50,00,000 apprx
Monday - 3,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 19,14,00,000 apprx

OMERTA continued with poor business on Monday with a further drop in business. The first four day business of OMERTA is as follows,
Friday - 50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 1,00,00,000 apprx
Monday - 30,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 2,55,00,000 apprx

102 NOT OUT had a low opening day of 3.25-3.50 crore nett apprx which is in the same range as HICHKI (3.31 crore nett) though the costs are higher for 102 NOT OUT compared to HICHKI. The costs of 102 NOT OUT are in the same range as OCTOBER and that film grossed 4.25 crore nett apprx on day one

The opening is on the expected lines as it never had much going for it to get the audience into the theaters initially. Now its about whether the content is good enough to have a run at the box office.

The Saturday numbers will go up as its aimed at those good multiplexes where occupancy is best on Saturday but will the families come on Sunday as it is their support that the film will need as it does not have appeal for the youth or mass audience.

The film has AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR for competition which is still doing excellent business especially in the metros which is the target audience of 102 NOT OUT. The business of AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR is higher across all metros despite it being on day eight.

Outside the metros it is not even a competition as AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR is doing treble business of 102 NOT OUT. This has affected the opening day collections of 102 NOT OUT as the audience has the choice of another film which is far bigger.

The other release to open yesterday OMERTA is a very poor fare with collections of 50 lakhs nett  range. The trailer spelt trouble and that is what has happened and with such low collections even mega growth will not really help much unless its like treble of day one.
------------------------------------
102 NOT OUT showed good growth of around 50% on Saturday but it remains to be seen if it is good enough. HICHKI was 60% up from similar levels on Saturday but was a lower costing film. A similar costing film OCTOBER was 55% up on Saturday and at higher levels than 102 NOT OUT and even despite this growth OCTOBER had so so holds post the weekend. OCTOBER was 30% higher on Saturday and even HICHKI was a little higher on Saturday

There is limited appreciation for 102 NOT OUT with the youth audience while mass is not even interested so its dependent on the family audience and that too in the five metros. This audience is still enough to pull the film through and the next few days will tell if this target audience has liked the film or not.

The first two day business of 102 NOT OUT is as follows.
Friday - 3,39,00,000
Saturday - 5,25,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 8,64,00,000 apprx

OMERTA is a very poor fare with collections of 1.25 crore nett in two days. The film showed growth of 50% on Saturday but it needed growth of 300%. There was not much hope for the film after Friday and now Saturday means there is NO hope for the film. The first two day business of OMERTA is as follows
Friday - 50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 1,25,00,000 apprx
