Dabangg 3 First Weekend Hit By The Trouble
Monday 23 December 2019 12.30 IST Box Office India Trade Network
Dabanng 3 had a weekend of 73 crore nett which would be a good or excellent weekend for most films but its an under performance here. Despite the film not finding appreciation across the board if it was not for these law and order problems across the country it would have been a good weekend and the film would have been on its way to becoming a HIT with just normal holds. Now the film has to try and cover the lost ground which may prove difficult as some areas are not performing even if we take into account the trouble across the country.
The Delhi / UP market is worst hit as the film should have collected far more as the figures in this circuit would have been just 10-15% below Mumbai while now they are almost 50% lower. The cent res which are normal in UP show this circuit has liked the film the most but it is not being reflected in the numbers. It remains crucial how the film holds on Monday as it can hold well then it gain well on the national holiday on Wednesday but if there is a major drop then the gains will not be big on Wednesday.
The real value weeeknd for the film would be around 85 crore nett which would have been a good weekend for the film but it was not to be. The first weeeknd business of the film is as follows.
Friday - 22,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 22,00,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 28,50,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 73,00,00,000 apprx
The regional versions of the film are not doing well but that is expected as Hindi films dubbed in southern languages hardly collect that well.
