ABCD 2 had a very good first weekend with business if 45.50 crore nett apprx. It is the highest first weekend of the year beating the 39 crore nett apprx of Gabbar Is Back. The film has done extraordinary business in Mumbai and CP Berar is also huge as a lot of its centers fall in Maharashtra.

The Mumbai circuit business of the film is around 17.50 crore nett in the first weekend. Tanu Weds Manu Returns had grossed 18.50 crore in the first week while Gabbar Is Back was 19.50 crore nett apprx for the week. It is almost touching the week figures of these films in the weekend.

But the key for ABCD 2 has not been Mumbai but North as Mumbai has a ready market for dance films but North. North India and Rajasthan is not great or anything but it is good and for a dance film these markets can be called very good. Also the start of Ramadan means that many stations on UP have a dip in collections. The weekend business ensures a HIT and remains to be seen how higher it goes.

I hope for a super hit. But clean hit is even fine

It is Smash hit, but rains + ramadan has dented its chance to be Super Hit... opening is above expectation, if it can keep 6+ weekdays, then it can be superhit. Well done 👏

How much better could they've done without Ramadan release and Mumbai rains?

2-4 Cr u can add per day of Weekend, so almost 6-12 Cr more figures for Weekend, which means 50+ Weekend & SuperHit tag for sure from rest of the business... It seems now it will go to 90-110 Cr max business, while if not Ramadan/Rains, i am sure TWMR kind of business.

Also, as BOI stated family audience not liking it much, it has dented a bit.
