Bhul Chuk Maaf picked up 9.50 crore nett adding to the 7 crore nett on Friday which gives the film a two day total of 16.50 crore nett. There was generally strong growth on Saturday with holdovers like Mission Impossible, Final Destination and Raid 2 all jumping in the 75-100% range.
The new release Bhul Chuk Maaf managed a 35% jump on the second day as it was never going to be a huge jump due to the discounted tickets in play on day one. This film is picking up numbers more or less in double digits in Saturday and Sunday and it should be celebration time when such a film can get these sort of number over the weekend with such a cast and on top a non sequel film but only if it was totally clean.
The film has not managed to get to a proper release in Overseas due to the two week window which means most of the bigger exhibitors are not playing but still some are and no doubt with this sort of release there will not be much collections. But the issue is at certain places where the film is playing the collections are similar to other Hindi release Kapkakiii. This Kapkakiii has only done 30-35 lakhs nett in India in two days but its collections in United Kingdom and are almost double with Bhul Chuk Maaf doing £1,100 from 18 cinemas and Kapkakiii doing £2150 on 30 cinemas.
This just cant happen when collections in India are so much better for Bhul Chuk Maaf and on top it is by far the bigger film with much more awareness. A film doing 26-28 crore nett weekend in India will hardly need a few shows to beat another Hindi film like Kaplakiii in the UK market which is not even doing 75 lakhs over the weekend in India. It sort of spells out what is going on here and remains to be seen how long this continues. The numbers of Bhul Chuk Maaf till date are as follows
Friday - 7,00,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 9,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 16,50,00,000 apprx
