Brothers has collected a decent number on day one with collections set to be around 13.50 crore nett. The final collections could come out another 25-50 lakhs higher but even that would leave it short of the second biggest opener of the year ABCD 2. The 13.50 crore nett number is decent but this film needed more than decent figures.

Rajasthan will notch up a 1 crore nett total on day one but the performance in CP Berar and CI is comparatively lower compared to Rajasthan. The film has a big holiday on Saturday but needs to grow 75-80% which will be difficult but not impossible as many films lately have seen 50-60% on a normal Saturda
