SINGH IS KING HAS BROKEN THE FIRST WEEK RECORD
(FIRST WEEK COLLECTIONS)
#1 SINGH IS KING 43,77,00,000
#2 OM SHANTI OM 40,19,00,000
#3 RACE 35,61,00,000
#4 WELCOME 35,30,00,000
#5 DHOOM 2 34,90,00,000
Singh Is Kinng and Bachna Ae Haseeno (metroes) look set to be first choices this weekend. Most multiplexes are keeping both films on similar amount of shows as first week for Bachna Ae Haseeno and as second week for Singh Is Kinng.
The new releases Maan Gaye Mughal-E-Azam are set to have 2-3 shows each while Mumbai Meri Jaan and My Friend Ganesha 2 are limited releases.
God Tussi Great Ho has not been able to make an impact at the multiplexes despite decent reports, it continues to do okay at single screens but the pick up that the industry had hoped for has not occurred.
Singh Is Kinng continues to shatter records in the North. Collections see drops on weekdays in other parts of the country but the Delhi/UP, East Punjab and Rajasthan belts carry on like an unstoppable hurricane be it weekdays or weekends. Bachna Ae Haseeno is good in big cities only but reasonable costs and no major competition in week two will be a huge benefit for the film so it can emerge a good earner.
