SAALA KHADOOS Had An Average 1st Weekend
'Saala Khadoos' is promoted by Rajkumar Hirani and that is why despite being a small film it some kind of pre release buzz in metros. Film had interesting sports theme and has R Madhavan in lead. But film is facing competition at box office from Sunny Leone starrer sex comedy 'Mastizaade' and hit film 'Airlift' in its 2nd week.
'Saala Khadoos' has got good to very good reviews and that helped film from noon show itself. Film should have grown from evening onwards but film failed to show expected jump.Also it is very limited release across 525 screens in Hindi and 300 plus screens in Tamil. That is why film collected 1.28 cr nett on day one. Film added 91 lakhs nett in Tamil.

The film’s weekend total reached 5.79 cr in Hindi and 4.14 cr nett on Tamil, and a grand total of 9.93 cr nett.
