WELCOME BACK grossed a decent 18 crore nett in week two taking its two week total to 91.75 crore nett. The drop in the second week is 75% which is par trending. The collections are the seventh highest for week two in 2015 and it should have been a bit higher considering the first week was the second highest this year.

The film has grossed healthy number is the big circuits in two weeks with Mumbai at 32 crore nett due to strong performance in Gujarat, Delhi/UP is at 19 crore nett which is already the third highest of the year and East Punjab is at 10 crore nett. It has also done well in Rajasthan and CI.

It remains to be seen if the film can get to 100 crore nett and it does not look easy with the weekend being crucial for it to remain with a chance. The film must sustain better in week three to get to 100 crore nett and a 75% week on week drop won't be good enough..
-----------------------
WELCOME BACK is struggling to reach the 100 crore nett mark as collections dropped 75-80% in week three when the drop has to be around 65% week on week to reach 100 crore nett. The collections will be in the 50-60 lakhs nett range on its third Friday.

It is still not totally impossible that the film can reach 100 crore nett as the collections can more than double on Saturday and go even further on Sunday but that seems unlikely scenario. The film needs around 6 crore nett plus over the week and this does not look like coming leaving it at around 98-99 crore. Although this hardly makes a difference and the film has done well, a genuine 100 crore film is good for perception.

The collections of HERO also dropped in the second week and its second week will probably come out as same as WELCOME BACK's third week. The hold is better outside the metros but thats not good enough and will close at around 35 crore nett.

Friday - 2,50,00,000
Saturday - 4,25,00,000

----------------------------
WELCOME BACK had a decent second weekend grossing a little under 12 crore nett. The film did well on Saturday and Sunday. The total after ten days is a around 85 crore nett. The second weekend business for WELCOME BACK is as follows.
Friday - 2,50,00,000
Saturday - 4,25,00,000
Sunday - 5,00,00,000
TOTAL - 11,75,00,000

The film is looking at around 100 crore nett lifetime business but it will be a tight call with the film probably taking 4-5 weeks to get there if it gets there.

WELCOME BACK grossed a decent 2.50-2.75 crore nett on its eight day. The collections have not dropped much despite the new release HERO. The collections are 30-35% down from Thursday which is pretty good considering there was a big release. The film is on course for 100 crore nett business but it will be close run thing. A big 50% plus jump on Saturday will make the 100 crore nett mark a bit easier otherwise it may take 4-5 weeks to get there, if it ever gets there.

Still whether it gets 100 plus or 98 crore nett, it's pretty much the same thing and the film has done well. The weekend should finish up in the 10-12 crore nett range depending on the growth on Saturday and Sunday. A lot will also depend on how HERO does on Saturday and Sunday.

WELCOME BACK is a comedy success after a long time and barring West Bengal and Mysore it has done good business in all the circuits with the bonus being strong business overseas.
