Junglee did fair business in the first week but not enough to emerge an earning proposal. The second week’s collections will determine whether the film will break even but it does look difficult. The film started with a take of Rs. 3.35 crore on Friday. Collections increased by around 35% on Saturday which closed at Rs. 4.45 crore. The jump in collections on Sunday was around 35% over the Saturday collections. The third day, therefore, closed at Rs. 6.05 crore, taking the first weekend’s total to Rs. 13.85 crore. Collections on the weekdays were: Monday – Rs. 2.40 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 1.90 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 1.55 crore, Thursday – Rs. 1.50 crore. With a total of Rs. 7.35 crore for the weekdays, the first week’s total went up to Rs. 21.20 crore. The film needs to collect around Rs. 20 crore more to break even.
