PREM RATAN DHAN PAYO Is Set To Cross 100 Cr Nett Today
Diwali is great time for films to release as audience is in festive mood and is waiting for big Diwali releases. Yesterday Salman Khan starrer Sooraj Barjatya film ''Prem Ratan Dhan Payo'' lit up box office on auspicious occasion of Diwali. Film brings back blockbuster pair of actor - director after 17 years and also smiles on faces of trade and exhibitors.
PRDP released in 4300 screens in India and 780 screens in overseas market. With 2 hour 50 minutes run time, it did lose some amount of edge but that has been recovered by super stardom of lead actor and release date. Film opened to fab response all over yesterday and as we predicted, film collected huge 40.35 cr nett on day one in Hindi and 41.50-41.75 cr nett all India including Tamil & Telugu which is highest opening day of 2015 and 2nd highest ever.
Film collected huge numbers all over and it created new circuit records in 7 circuits and left behind only in West and south on day one. But as we predicted in our report yesterday morning that it has dropped by 23%. Film collected 31.03 cr nett on day two which was a very good performance. Film should again grow today in evening shows and should easily clock 32-33 cr nett. It means it should cross 100 cr nett today. Though morning shows have started slowly but it is bound to pick in evening.
Film has two day total of 71.38 cr nett which is fantastic. Film added superb 1.6 million $ (10.62 cr) in overseas. After such opening now the target is highest week one ever. Film should easily clock 135 cr nett over weekend which will be a huge number. Overall another big blockbuster on the cards and this might go all the way to break all the records if it manages to hold on Monday.
