Hichki | Review and Box Office Thread - Page 3

#Hichki VERDICT will be CLEAR HIT.. Considering lesser budget... 1 week free run... and overall a sweet Film..

#Hichki is on a RIOT mode today all across India. Positive word of mouth, controlled costs and smart release size has made the film success for EVERYONE involved. Today's collections will be around Rs 7 - 7.5 crore, taking weekend total to Rs 15.5 - 16 crore. @yrf #RaniMukerji

Hichki had a good hold on Monday dropping 30% from the first day to record business of 2.25-2.35 crore nett range. This takes the business of the film to 17.50 crore nett and the first week will finish in the the 23-24 crore nett which is a decent result for this film.

The film has done better than similar films of this range in terms of cost of like Bareilly Ki Barfi and Tumhari Sulu. Both these films were average fares so it could be that Hichki could be a notch or two higher but that it all depends on how its holds up over the next two weeks.

The first four day collections of Hichki are as follows

Friday - 3,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 5,25,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 6,75,00,000 apprx

Monday - 2,25,00,000 apprx

Total - 17,50,00,000 apprx

The film also did well in Gulf in its first weekend with business of $500k and is also set for China release towards the end of the year where it will have huge potential being a female orientated urban social drama. The China box office for Hindi films is being driven by a larger female audience and this film could do multiples of India there in terms of business.

#Hichki continues its SUPER RUN... Wed better than Mon and Tue... Fri 3.30 cr, Sat 5.35 cr, Sun 6.70 cr, Mon 2.40 cr, Tue 2.35 cr, Wed 2.60 cr. Total: 22.70 cr [961 screens]. India biz.

Hichki has had a decent first week of 26 crore nett after a poor start when it released. The film picked up on Saturday and maintained very well on Monday and then towards the end of the week the holiday factor helped on Wednesday evening and Thursday.

The film has fared best in Mumbai, Pune, Kolkata and Bangalore with West Bengal the best circuit comparatively. The first week figure of Mardaani which was the last Rani Mukherjee starrer was 22.94 crore nett so the film is 14% up on that film in the first week.

There is Baaghi 2 to contend with this week but that film has a different target audience and that limited audience for Hichki in the metros may not be too interested in a film like Baaghi 2 so it could still continue to go strong in week two. There is the Good Friday holiday to help also.
