Better-Half Chi Love Story (Marathi) did not fare well in the first week in Maharashtra.

War 2 turned out to be a major disappointment in 1st week. The long Independence Day weekend salvaged its position to an extent, but collections during the weekdays were pathetic. The unimpressive collections on Saturday and Sunday after Thursday (ordinary opening) and Friday (below-expectations jump despite Independence Day national holiday) underlined the harsh reality that the film had not found favour with the public and that collections for the weekdays would be way below the mark — and that’s exactly what happened. The film netted an ordinary Rs. 29 crore on Thursday. Collections jumped to Rs. 46 crore on Friday, which itself was not up to the mark. The total for Saturday was only Rs. 27 crore while that for Sunday was just Rs. 28 crore. Hence the first 4-day weekend closed at Rs. 130 crore.

Mahavatar Narsimha (animation, Hindi and South languages) stood its ground in the fourth week too in spite of the opposition of the two big releases — War 2 and Coolie The Powerhouse — of last week. Of course, the drop in collections in 4th week was marked but that was due to two reasons: huge business had already been done in the first three weeks, and the opposition posed by two major new films was tremendous. The fourth weekend started with a net collection of Rs. 6.98 crore on Friday (Independence Day holiday). Collections on Saturday totalled Rs. 6.49 crore while on Sunday, Rs. 7.86 crore. After a weekend total of Rs. 21.33 crore, collections for the weekdays were as follows: Monday – Rs. 1.94 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 2.16 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 1.58 crore, Thursday – Rs. 1.33 crore.
