DULL COLLECTIONS MARK YEAREND, START OF NEW YEAR

Collections increased to Rs. 7.50 crore on Saturday, and to Rs. 10 crore on Sunday. The second weekend, therefore, closed at only Rs. 23.50 crore. In spite of the New Year holiday on Monday, the film collected just Rs. 7.50 crore that day. Collections for the balance days were quite dismal: Tuesday – Rs. 3 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 2.50 crore, Thursday – Rs. 2 crore. With a total of Rs. 15 crore for the 4 weekdays, the second week’s total was an unimpressive Rs. 38.50 crore. Grand total for 2 weeks: Rs. 200.51 crore.

‘DUNKI’ CROSSES RS. 150 CRORE IN SPITE OF MIXED REPORTS

Dunki met with a mixed response. Youngsters generally gave it the thumbs down while people in the over-40 age group are finding it fairly good. But the Rajkumar Hirani film still managed decent collections in the first 8-day week. The Shah Rukh Khan starrer netted Rs. 29.20 crore on the first day (Thursday, December 21). Collections decreased to Rs. 20.12 crore on Friday but picked up again on Saturday (Rs. 25.61 crore) and even more on Sunday (Rs. 30.70 crore). Therefore, the 4-day weekend closed at Rs. 105.63 crore. Collections on Monday (Christmas) totalled Rs. 24.32 crore so that the 5-day weekend closed at Rs. 129.95 crore. Collections dropped dramatically during the balance three days: Tuesday – Rs. 11.56 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 10.50 crore, Thursday – Rs. 10 crore. Hence the total for the last 3 days was Rs. 32.06 crore. In this way, the first 8-day week closed at Rs. 162.01 crore.

Salaar (dubbed) did very well in centres where action films rule but average at other places in the first week. The film netted Rs. 18 crore on the first day. Collections on Saturday were also Rs. 18 crore while on Sunday, they increased to Rs. 21 crore. The total for Monday (Christmas) was Rs. 15.50 crore. Hence the three-day weekend closed at Rs. 57 crore while the total for the 4-day weekend was Rs. 72.50 crore. The collections for the balance three days were: Tuesday – Rs. 10 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 9.25 crore, Thursday – Rs. 7.75 crore. Therefore, the total for the 3 days was Rs. 27 crore, and for the first week was Rs. 99.50 crore.

Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom (dubbed and the original English versions) did fairly well in its first 8-day week. (Only the original English version was released on Thursday; the dubbed versions opened on Friday.) The film netted Rs. 1.89 crore on the first day (Thursday). In spite of the dubbed versions opening on Friday, the total for the film was Rs. 1.35 crore. Collections on Saturday jumped to Rs. 2.42 crore and further on Sunday to Rs. 2.92 crore. The total for Monday (Christmas) was Rs. 2.49 crore so that the 5-day weekend total was Rs. 11.07 crore. Collections on the balance three days of the week were: Tuesday – Rs. 1.24 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 1.10 crore, Thursday – Rs. 1 crore. In this way, the total for the first 8-day week was Rs. 14.41 crore.

Animal collections dropped dramatically in 4th week because of the opposition of the two new releases — Dunki and Salaar (dubbed). The original Hindi version netted Rs. 6 crore in the fourth 4-day weekend and another Rs. 3.26 crore during the balance three days. In this way, the Hindi version collected Rs. 9.26 crore in 4th week. The dubbed versions collected Rs. 0.88 crore in the fourth week. Grand total for 4 weeks (Hindi version only): Rs. 482.72 crore. Grand total for the dubbed versions for 4 weeks: Rs. 60.19 crore. Hence the grand total for 4 weeks for all the versions was Rs. 542.91 crore.

Sam Bahadur faced a remarkable drop in 4th week owing to the release of two new films. It netted Rs. 5 crore in the fourth week, taking the grand total for 4 weeks to Rs. 84.95 crore.

GOOD, NOT GREAT, START FOR BOTH NEW RELEASES

DUNKI and SALAAR (dubbed) opened on Thursday (December 21) and Friday (December 22) respectively to good houses. None of the two new releases took bumper initials. The trade had expected DUNKI to net more than Rs. 30 crore on the first day but the day closed at Rs. 29.20 crore. Of course, DUNKI could never have repeated the initials of the last two films of Shah Rukh Khan because while both those films (PATHAAN and JAWAN) were high-octane action films, DUNKI was a social film. Collections of the Shah Rukh Khan starrer on Friday totalled Rs. 20 crore (approximately), taking the 2-day total to more than Rs. 49 crore. SALAAR (dubbed) netted Rs. 18 crore on the first day. The figure of 18 includes the collections of the Hindi dubbed version in South circuits.

In this way, the third weekend of the Hindi version closed at Rs. 32 crore. Collections for the weekdays were: Monday – Rs. 5 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 4.50 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 4.25 crore, Thursday – Rs. 1.65 crore. Collections dropped dramatically on Thursday because of the release of Dunki. Therefore, the total for the weekdays was Rs. 15.40 crore. In this way, the total for the third week was Rs. 47.40 crore. Grand total for 3 weeks for the Hindi version: Rs. 473.46 crore. The dubbed versions netted Rs. 4.71 crore in 3rd week, taking the 3-week total to Rs. 59.31 crore. Hence, the grand total of 3 weeks for all the versions put together was an astounding Rs. 532.77 crore!

Sam Bahadur started its third weekend with a net collection of Rs. 2.50 crore on Friday. Collections for Saturday doubled to Rs. 5 crore, and the total on Sunday was Rs. 5.50 crore.

‘TIGER 3’ DISAPPOINTS FANS BUT MANAGES GOOD COLLECTIONS, FACES LEAN DAYS AHEAD

Tiger 3, which opened on Sunday, November 12 owing to Diwali, collected very well on the first five days but, as predicted by us, has not found universal acceptance because of its pro-Pakistan subject. The Diwali (festival holidays) period gave a major boost to the collections as did the Tiger franchise, Salman Khan and the YRF brand. It netted Rs. 44.50 crore on the first day (Hindi version Rs. 43 crore, Tamil dubbed and Telugu dubbed versions Rs. 1.50 crore), which is a record for Laxmi Pooja day collections. On the second day, the total soared to Rs. 59.25 crore (Rs. 58 crore for the Hindi version, Rs. 1.25 crore for the dubbed versions). The third day (New Year’s day) saw the film netting Rs. 44.75 crore (Hindi version Rs. 43.50 crore, dubbed versions Rs. 1.25 crore). Collections on the fourth day (Bhai Dooj day) totalled Rs. 21.25 crore (Hindi version Rs. 20.50 crore, dubbed versions Rs. 0.75 crore). Although a drop on the fourth day was expected, the quantum of fall was more than expected. Of course, the India-New Zealand World Cup cricket match on that day also adversely affected collections but the drop would’ve been lesser if the film had found more appreciation and universal acceptance. Thursday (5th day) closed at Rs. 18.50 crore (Hindi Rs. 18 crore, dubbed Rs. 0.50 crore). In this way, the total for the first 5-day week was Rs. 188.25 crore (Hindi Rs. 183 crore, dubbed versions Rs. 5.25 crore). Before its release, the figure that was expected to close the first 5-day week was Rs. 230-250 crore. The film will not be able to even touch, leave alone surpass, the Rs. 340-crore total of Tiger Zinda Hai which was released six years earlier (December 2017). The second week (after the first 5-day week) started with a net collection total of Rs. 13.25 crore (Hindi Rs. 13 crore, dubbed versions Rs. 0.25 crore) on Friday. Overseas, the film grossed US $7.5 million (Rs. 62 crore) in the first 5-day week. Shockingly, the pro-Pakistan story has not worked wonders Overseas. It should have, but since it hasn’t, it’s a sign that even otherwise, the film has not lived up to people’s expectations!

Collections on Saturday increased to Rs. 1.88 crore, but the total on Sunday (despite Diwali and weekly holiday) was only Rs. 0.45 crore due to the release of Tiger 3. After a weekend total of Rs. 3.44 crore, collections for the weekdays were quite good due to the Diwali holidays: Monday – Rs. 1.68 crore, Tuesday – Rs. 1.65 crore, Wednesday – Rs. 0.92 crore, Thursday – Rs. 0.85 crore. Therefore, the total for the weekdays was Rs. 5.10 crore, far more than the total for the weekend. In this way, the third week closed at Rs. 8.54 crore. Grand total for 3 weeks: Rs. 34.75 crore.

Leo (dubbed) is on its last lap. It buckled under the opposition of Tiger 3 in the fourth week. It netted Rs. 0.45 crore in the fourth weekend, and another Rs. 0.22 crore during the weekdays, taking the total for 4th week to Rs. 0.67 crore. Grand total for 4 weeks: Rs. 29.86 crore.
