Mission Mangal had had a good Monday as it records figures of around 8.50-8.75 crore nett. The drop will be 50% or a little more but the film is coming of big weekend numbers and that too an extended weekend. It did look like a 10 crore nett Monday was possible on the weekend trend but eventually its a big city multiplex film and  the film would have consumed a heavy chunk of this audience with a near 100 crore nett extended weekend total.

The film will be at 105 crore nett after five days and the extended first week is looking to cross the 125 crore nett mark. The second weekend as hardly any competition and it should be the dominant film again and head to a very big lifetime total.   

Batla House is steady on Monday with collections of 4.25-4.50 crore nett on Monday. The drop for this film will be under 50% at around 40-45% from Friday but the Friday collections were low. The centres in UP have held well and are stronger than the rest of the country.  The extended first week for Batla House will be around 58 crore nett and then the very crucial second Friday. The Monday collections give this film a good chance of success if it can continue to sustain.

Overall its turned out a good Independence Day for the industry and better than last year despite the start being lesser than last year.
