Housefull 5 collected 79 crore nett plus over its first three days which is a good number though the film probably needed to do better but its enough to keep it in the race and as long as it does well from here it should do well. Generally the franchise has run well post the weekend but this time the film is slightly different as its not an outright comedy and more like comedy / suspense film. 

This is the highest post pandemic number for an Akshay Kumar starrer beating the 77 crore nett number of Sooryavanshi but that released when there were issues with covid19 and business has got better for the bigger films since then so in fair value terms this weekend is not as strong as Sooryavanshi. 

The film has generally scored well in all circuits with good enough collections in the East India also where comedies tend to work less. Gujarat is very good considering the film has elements of an adult comedy and it has collected well till date despite being a conservative state. The growth of the film could have been better over the weekend as taking the Eid factor out it has jumped around 30% from Friday to Sunday which is less. There was a fall in a few circuits on Sunday though gains in Mumbai and Central belt meant that the film made minimal gains.

The story for the film will be what happens from here as it has all of June to do business as there is only one other major release in the month. The Monday is crucial and it needs a double digit number at the very least if it is to benefit from this open run in front of it. A weeeknd of 90 crore nett plus would have made the journey easier but the film has probably fallen 10 crore nett short of it had to do and now it has to make up ground over the next 10-12 days. The collections of Housefull 5 till date are as follows.

Friday - 22,00,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 28,25,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 29,00,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 79,25,00,000 apprx
