Chennai Express collected around 12 crore nett on Monday taking its business to 104 crore nett. It is crossed 100 crore nett in four days plus paid previews. The collections on Monday were rock steady in Muslim centres as they normally are for a few days post Eid while others did show a noticeable drop. It was the third highest Monday ever after Ek Tha Tiger and Yeh Jawaani Hai Dewani.
But with Muslim dominated areas being down just 50% from that huge Friday it came out with a strong Monday. There will be another noticeable drop on Tuesday as collections come down in Muslim dominated areas but Thursday is national holiday so that will be up and it will also help on Wednesday evening.
The film is probably looking at a record breaking first week of around 140 crore nett. Ek That Tiger last year in Eid week collected 143 crore nett in nine days and 128 crore in 7 days.
