Other small releases ''Mad About Dance'', ''Katiyabaaz'' and ''Mumbai Connection'' are no starters and will struggle big time. Hollywood release ''The Expendables 3'' is better in metros but remained poor overall.

MARDAANI Had Below Par Day One
Rani Mukherjee starrer ''Mardaani'' released today along with few small films and Hollywood films. Film is backed by YRF and that is why it had good visible release and decent marketing push.
But sadly film opened to poor numbers. Film opened to 15-20% and it was poorer than 'Singham Returns' which is running in 2nd week. Film is weak in south and central India as expected but it is shockingly poor in Mumbai and North too. Though film improved from evening onwards.
Film has good appreciation and reviews are positive but then film need big turnaround. Film has crucial day tomorrow. As per early estimate, film should collect close to 3.50 cr nett on day one which is below par.
Other small releases 'Mad About Dance', 'Katiyabaaz' and 'Mumbai Connection' are no starters and will struggle big time. Hollywood release 'The Expendables 3' is better in metros but remained poor overall.
