PK Had Strict Good Day As Mass Centers Underperformed
As we predicted in our reports in last few days, Aamir Khan starrer ''PK'' has taken a huge start at box office all over. Film has kind of mystery surrounded it as not many reviews were out yet and there was not much known to common man about plot.
Film took super solid start in multiplexes and urban centers. Film was good in NCR but due to extreme cold film did not perform up to the mark from evening onwards. Film had good run in Mysore and Mumbai but even there mass cinemas were strictly good only.
Filmwas good in Rajasthan, Gujarat, CI and CP but not a single circuit overperformed. Film was non holiday release and so was Aamir''s last release ''Dhoom 3''. But ''PK'' will collect at least 5-6 cr nett less than ''Dhoom 3'' which is not that good considering ''PK'' has inflated ticket prices. It means opening day occupancy was way lower than ''Dhoom 3''.
Film collected 26.63 cr nett official numbers on day one. Film needs big jump in next few days and film needs 100 cr nett over weekend. Film collected following numbers in major territories -
Mumbai
8.47 cr
Del/UP
4.52 cr
