Shivaay showed a huge jump on Monday as collections were around 70% up from day one. This was because the mass markets came to the fore as was expected and single screens generally were recording full houses due to the big holiday. The film had a low weekend but the Monday figure has put it back in the race and today is a partial holiday and again mass centres perform well which could aid the film. The film was doing very strong numbers in the Central India belt of Rajastan, CP Berar and CI and alos in Bihar. Both Rajathan and CP Berar both crossed 1 crore nett which only Sultan has managed this year on any single day. The first four day business of Shivaay is as follows.
Friday - 9,15,00,000Saturday - 8,25,00,000
Sunday - 6,50,00,000
Monday - 15,75,00,000
TOTAL - 39,95,00,000
Shivaay should have another solid performance due to the partial holiday for Bhai Dooj and like Ae Dil Hai Mushkil it will be Wednesday that will decide where the week is going and give an indication to where the film is heading.
