Housefull All Set To Get Box Office Going Again

Thursday 29th April 2010 10.00 IST

There has been a dull phase for the last few months with film's failing one after the other and theatres seeing first day audiences that could be counted on one hand.

But with the release of Housefull it is all set to change as the film is all set to take a big start all over India. Housefull may well take the biggest opening ever for all the big names concerned with film like Akshay Kumar, Sajid Nadiadwala, Sajid Khan and Deepika Padukone.

The first quarter is not historically famous for huge openings as they are normally occur in the last quarter but with Housefull all that is looking to change as it will probably have one of the biggest openings ever and easily the biggest opening ever recorded in the first quarter of the year.


Housefull Takes Excellent Start At The Box Office

Housefull has taken an excellent start this morning over its first few shows. Multiplexes have seen excellent collections all over while single screens are also very good. The best collections have come in the North with Delhi city and East Punjab multiplexes being fantastic and Rajasthan and CI also performing superbly.

Some single screens in CP Berar had a slower start but multiplexes were good in the circuit. Hyderabad also suffered a bit as the city had a few bomb scare stories.

Overall the opening is big as was expected and bought relief all around after the dull period. The weekend should emerge with huge collections as Saturday is a holiday which will further boost the film.

B.O. update: 'House Full' has earth-shattering start
- By Taran Adarsh, April 30, 2010 - 15:52 IST
The much-awaited HOUSE FULL seems to have ended the drought at the box-office. The film embarked on one of the biggest openings ever, with the morning and noon shows opening to a fantastic response. The film has had one of the biggest releases ever, in terms of number of screens as also shows at leading plexes. Generally, a keenly awaited film is screened in 15-17-20 shows every day, but in this case, as many as 22-25-27 shows are being conducted at several plexes.

Saturday, 1st May is a holiday, so the film should set new records on Saturday and Sunday as well. Now let's see if the opening weekend numbers find a place in Top 5 openers ever.

Housefull : Spectacular Opening

Housefull has taken mind boggling start everywhere. It was expected and it full fills expectations on opening note. Total capacity for first day is around 18-19 Crore. Yes you heard it right !! If Housefull manage to give houseful boards everywhere, collections will be nothing less than 18 Crore. But in practically scenario where at some places single screens might not have open so well and even some plexes at interiors are average openers, I am expecting 11-13 Crore first day figure. This is exceedingly well collections and will further improve on Saturday and Sunday. 35+ Crore opening weekend is given here. Box-office to rejoice with such a healthy collections after a long time. Get ready for second best opening weekend.

  • Above prediction of weekend figure is in case if movie keeps on same pace throughout weekend.
  • Bigtree is selling average 20 tickets every minute. Average was 7 tickets per minute for MNIK first Friday. Three idiots average was 30+ tickets per minute for entire weekend

Housefull Into Overdrive In Evening Shows

Housefull is doing tremendous business at multiplexes all over India in its evening shows. Delhi and East Punjab are seeing bumper collections at multiplexes while other places are excellent.



The places where the start was slightly slower in the morning shows showed improvement in the evening. There are some single screens which are below expectations in CP Berar and Bihar but overall this will not make much difference to overall scenario.



The film is looking to emerge with a huge weekend which may well be the second biggest ever after Three Idiots which should put it on route to emerge a hit film.

Housefull Lives Up To Its Name

Saturday 1st May 2010 09.00 IST

Chase opend to an extremely dull response of 5% and it will go unnoticed at the box office.

Housefull lived up to its name with a super response at the box office of 85-90% on huge volume. The evening shows were going house full at most places in the country. Some areas recorded humungous collections on its first day. The critics may not have liked it but public reports are better and the film should emerge a major success.

The releases from last week like Apartment Bird Idol, City Of Gold, Kuchh Kariye and Muskurake Dekh Zara turned out to be box office washouts.
