Gabbar Is Back's 1st Weekend Box Office Collection | Bollywood's Achche Din Is Back

May 4th, 2015 by Joginder Tuteja

Shares : 7Comments ( 0 )

Finally, after a long wait, achche din aa gaye'. 2015 has been terrible as far as opening weekend for a film is concerned. Roy was the only film to cross the 10 crore mark and that too fizzled after two good days. Other than that, the only film to enjoy a decent weekend was Babywhich went on to grow on word of mouth.

Hence, all hopes hinged on Akshay Kumar to deliver again with Gabbar Is Back. He managed to do that with the film which not only managed to take the best start of the year (with first day billing as 13.05 crore) but also a healthy weekend which managed to cross the 40 crore mark.

Now this is the best opening weekend that a film has enjoyed this year and it is a heartening sign to see audience stepping into theaters all over again. What is all the more remarkable is to see the wide disconnect between a bunch of self-esteemed critics, who don't seem to enjoy Bollywood forever, and the aam junta' who want their dose of entertainment. While on one side there were one and two star ratings coming for the film from this select group, on other side there were patrons enjoying what first time Bollywood director Krish had to offer.

Coming to Gabbar Is Back, the film is set to enjoy good hold right through the week and then penetrate well into the second week as well.

As for the second release of the week, Sabki Bajegi Band, it has gone totally unnoticed with neither audience nor critics interested in checking out what it had to offer. Yet another disaster in Bollywood's kitty.

* Final numbers awaited

good Sunday gives Gabbar Is Back Chance Of Being A Hit

Monday 04 May 2015 10.00 IST

Box office india network

Gabbar Is Back Has scored well on Sunday with an apprx 15 crore nett total. It could even be a little more depending on the final figure in Mumbai. The weekend has gone to around 38.50 crore thanks to the good Sunday business. There were huge jumps in business in many circuits like Delhi/UP, East Punjab and Rajasthan.

There is a holiday in places like Delhi, MP and Mumbai for Buddha Purnima on Monday so it should have a good Monday and the trend does look positive due to the good business on Sunday. The overall weekend figure is not good but is par for the course and now a 60 crore nett week which would be pretty good is a possibility.

Gabbar Is Back has an outside chance of being that first real hit of the year with probaby the window being the major hurdle. Next week films will not pose much of a problem but it's run maybe cut short with the release of the Bombay Velvet. If the weekend was 10-15% higher then the window would not be an issue.

Gabbar Is Back had a super strong hold on Monday in Delhi/UP. It was a holiday in parts but still the collections were very strong showing just 25% drop on Monday.The first four day business of Gabbar Is Back in Delhi/UP is as follows.

Friday - 2,26,00,000

Saturday - 2,21,00,000

Sunday - 3,20,00,000

Monday - 1,60,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 9,27,00,000

The collections will be up and down in the various circuits as some have part holidays while others are normal. The film should comfortably show a better hold than the normal 50% drop from Friday and could have a 7 crore nett Monday. If Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh which also have part holidays behave like Delhi/UP it could even be better.
