Zero showed growth of 25% on the national holiday for Christmas Day to collect 11.75 crore nett apprx. the growth was limited for a national holiday but generally the growth is low this Xmas as films being screened on lesser screens like KGF (Hindi) and Kedarnath also went up only 40% and 35% respectively. Much of the growth for Christmas seemed to baked into the Monday figures for all films.
The total for Zero is around 76 crore nett in five days and these are low figures for five days with a national holiday for a big film. The film is not going anywhere with the only hope now being collections not coming down heavily on Wednesday which will at least mean some sort of run for into the New Year at the box office. If the film drops badly on Wednesday then it will hardly collect over the second weekend.
The chances to sustain to a certain extent are mainly in Delhi / UP, East Punjab and Bihar especially UP and Bihar where all cities are sustaining pretty well with fair collections. The scenario is bleak in Mumbai, Gujarat and South. The first five day figures for Zero are as follows.
Friday - 19,35,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 17,00,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 18,25,00,000 apprx
Monday - 9,50,00,000 apprx
Tuesday - 11,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 75,85,00,000 apprx
