Housefull 5 saw a drop in collections on Tuesday as it collected 9.25-9.50 crore nett. This drop would be fine if it was not for cheap Tuesdays as rates were dropped so it should have held its collections better. A film like this should be not be going on cheap Tuesdays anyway as your weekend collections were good so should at least avoid the cheap rates for the first week.

Basically should have been like Raid 2 where they held Tuesday at normal weekday rates but the makers were probably more confident about that film in the longer run than here as the Monday fall may look fine overall but there were big falls on Monday morning in many circuits including an important one like Mumbai. Mumbai has held better on Tuesday but Delhi / UP has seen a fall.

The film is around the 100 crore nett mark in five days and its looking a like a long journey for the film especially with this drop and post the cheap Tuesday there is likely to be another drop. It remains to be seen where the film goes from here and the second weekend looks very crucial for the film. The film has 100 crore nett up on the board and it should be a first week around the 115 crore nett mark.

The second week and after will decide the fate of the film and if the film can reach the success mark or do better with a bit of luck. To emerge a HIT film the film has a lot of work to do and looks very hard at the moment unless the second week can really surprise.
